A 0.8″ GOLS Certified Latex layer offers additional comfort and support for easy sleep.
4. 1.5” Latex Layer
This 1.5” durable latex layer is sourced from Sri Lanka using the Dunlop method preserves the organic integrity of the mattress.

Comfort
The medium-firm mattress does not disappoint in its comfort. While the medium-firmness ensures a balanced feel of support and cushioning, this mattress maintains a neutral spine and improves posture. The exceptional pressure relief pampers your body so you can wake up refreshed every morning. Engineered with zone-based coils, firmer coils provide added support at the mattress’s center, while softer coils promote proper spinal alignment at the head and foot. The luxury quilted top provides the dreamiest sleeping surface for you to drift into deep slumber.
Firmness
The Silk & Snow Organic Medium-Firm scores 7 out of 10 on our firmness scale, providing a balanced feel of cushioning and support. This level of firmness is ideal for back and combination sleepers and some side sleepers who prefer slightly more firmness from their mattress over a plush feel. The durable construction of the mattress ensures you will experience long-lasting support, and offers superior pressure relief to alleviate pain.
Motion Transfer
Similar to the Organic Firm, the Organic Medium-Firm also excels in motion isolation, offering you undisrupted sleep. The additional layer on this version adds more cushioning while retaining the mattress’s ability to prevent motion from distributing across the mattress. You can enjoy sound sleep and not feel your partner/pet/kid tossing and turning.
Cooling
The Organic Mattress excels in promoting effective air circulation, thanks to its GOTS-Certified Organic Cotton cover and GOLS-Certified Latex layer. Additionally, the use of certified organic wool as a fire retardant enhances breathability by allowing air to permeate through this protective layer. The inherent qualities of these chemical-free materials combine to establish a breathable barrier, resulting in a cooler and more comfortable sleep experience.
Edge Support
The Silk & Snow Organic Mattress is designed and engineered to prevent sinking and sagging and offers stellar edge support around its perimeter to ensure there is no slipping or falling off. You can sit or lie down as close to the edge as you desire without feeling any discomfort, while the mattress will maintain its structural integrity. The durable latex used in mattress construction is a key component that ensures long-lasting edge support.
Sinkage and Responsiveness
The Silk & Snow Organic Medium-Firm has slight sinkage to offer spot-on cushioning for back, combination and side sleepers without feeling pressure on their shoulders or hips. Additionally, the sweet-spot bounce adds to the comfort and makes getting in and out of bed easier. This mattress’s responsiveness is praiseworthy, enabling smooth transitions between every sleeping position, and a seamless sleeping experience.
How does it suit different sleeping positions?
Side Sleepers
The Organic Medium-Firm suits better for side sleepers who dislike softer mattresses but enjoy the contouring feel and pressure relief to their neck, shoulders and hips. This mattress adapts to the natural curve of the body while offering stellar zoned support, making it a great choice for side sleepers. Those who prefer a more plush feel can consider the Silk & Snow Organic Plush instead.
Back Sleepers
Back sleepers will easily fall in love with how soothing and cozy this mattress is. With optimal spinal alignment and pressure relief to prevent any strains and pains, this mattress offers exceptional comfort for back sleepers, so they can wake up refreshed and relaxed every morning. The zoned support perfectly caters to keeping their head, back, and feet aligned and balanced.
Stomach Sleepers
Light to mid-weight stomach sleepers can still benefit from the Silk & Snow Organic Medium-Firm as it will cater to keeping their midsection aligned without sinking too deep into the mattress. However, some may still prefer to use the firm version to experience optimal comfort.
Combination Sleepers
For combination sleepers, this is a great mattress, offering stellar support and ample cushioning for when they switch sleeping positions. The high responsiveness of this mattress will ensure seamless transitioning when they toss and turn. Additionally, they will also benefit from the superior motion isolation that minimizes disturbances to them or those they share their bed with.
Lightweight Sleepers
Some lightweight sleepers may find the Silk & Snow Organic Medium-Firm the most balanced and comfortable feel, while others will prefer the cloud-like feel of the Silk & Snow Organic Plush. Regardless, both of these mattresses provide ample support and pressure relief for lightweight sleepers and offer optimal spinal alignment.
Heavy People
Heavier individuals prefer firmer mattresses to support their body weight and avoid sinking into their mattress. The firm version of Silk & Snow Organic is therefore a better investment for them, as it is durable, eco-friendly, and offers robust support and comfort all night long.
Should You Buy Silk & Snow Organic Medium-Firm Mattress?
If you’re a back, side or combination sleeper looking for a medium-firm feel from your mattress, Silk & Snow Organic Medium-Firm provides incredible value for money for an eco-conscious mattress. While offering a clean sleep, this mattress facilitates great breathability, deep pressure relief to alleviate pain, and unparalleled support to ensure spinal alignment.
There are very limited options for 100% Organic mattresses in Canada, which makes the Silk & Snow Organic Mattress a true gem. This mattress offers unbeatable value for money with support and comfort that last for a long time when compared to other organic mattresses available in Canada such as Avocado, Hamuq, or Obasan.
