Do Latex Mattresses Have Coils?
Not so long ago, innerspring mattresses were the only type of mattress that had coils. However, as time went by, things changed. Nowadays, innerspring mattresses are not the only kind of mattresses that come with coils; some latex mattresses have coils now, too.
A good example of such a mattress is the Luxury Bliss Organic Hybrid Latex Mattress from PlushBeds. We'll discuss this mattress shortly.
Here are a few things you need to know about mattress coils:
What are Mattress Coils?
Simply put, mattress coils are circular metal springs that support a mattress, and form a durable surface for sleepers to sleep on.
What are the Benefits of Mattress Coils?
The most common benefit of mattress coils is that they support the sleeper. As a result, such mattresses can sustain heavier sleepers, without losing their shape within a few months.
But that's not the only reason mattress coils are pretty popular. Here are additional benefits of mattress coils:
Reduced Disturbance
If you've ever shared a bed with a restless sleeper, you know how uncomfortable it is. But that's not something you should be worried about when you sleep on a mattress with fabric-encased coils. These coils are uniquely designed to absorb the motion, limiting the movement to only the coils beneath the sleeper. As a result, one sleeper's movements don't disrupt the other sleeper.
Improved Support
When used in a mattress, coils help provide better support. In addition, they contour to the sleeper's body, keeping them comfortable throughout the night. As a result, these mattresses are ideal for individuals who struggle with pain in their shoulders, neck, and lower back. The improved support also promotes proper spinal alignment.
Temperature Regulation
Because these springs have spaces between them, they allow air to flow through the bed, leading to a cooler sleep surface. This is particularly fantastic for individuals who tend to sleep hot. Sleeping on a mattress with coils helps cool down the body in hot environments, preventing nighttime sweating.
Durability
Mattress coils extend the lifespan of a mattress. This is because these coils are designed to regain their shape after holding the sleeper's weight.
To put things into perspective, think about how an actual spring works when you exert pressure on it. Although it might fold when the pressure is still on, it quickly 'springs' back to its original position when you ease the pressure.
That's exactly how a coil mattress works.
Now back to the question of whether latex mattresses have coils. Here's the answer:
Although latex mattresses are not originally designed to have coils, newer inventions, such as the hybrid latex mattress from PlushBeds, have introduced the coil system to maximize the benefits of sleeping on a latex mattress.
What is a Hybrid Mattress?
A hybrid mattress is the kind of mattress that combines the best of both worlds to provide the best sleeping experience. By 'both worlds', we mean the mattress materials used by manufacturers to create these mattresses.
For example, PlushBeds, one of the most popular mattress manufacturers in America, combines mattress coils with 100% natural Talalay latex, 100% British organic wool, and GOTS-certified organic cotton to create a premium hybrid mattress. The end result is a supportive, temperature regulating, and comfortable mattress.
Benefits of a Hybrid Latex Mattress with Coils
Let's face it - not every latex hybrid mattress you see out there comes with coils. This is also one of the reasons PlushBeds stands out in the mattress manufacturing industry. By combining the best from both worlds to create an organic hybrid latex mattress with coils, sleepers enjoy the following benefits:
Eco-Friendly Mattress
The mattress is manufactured using the highest quality, eco-friendly, and consciously-sourced raw organic materials. If you're an environmentally-conscious sleeper, you'll enjoy sleeping on this mattress because it contains natural mattress materials, such as organic cotton, organic wool, and 100% natural latex.
Coil-Latex Combo for Better Support
Naturally, a latex mattress provides extra support and comfort. That's actually the reason latex mattresses are priced higher than most traditional mattresses on the market. So when you combine mattress coils and latex, these two work seamlessly together to provide the best support for the sleeper. This combination is ideal for sleepers who struggle with body pain, especially along the lower back, shoulders, and hips.
Chemical-Free Latex Mattresses
Because latex mattresses contain natural materials, you don't have to worry about exposure to chemicals and other harmful substances when you sleep on them. Rather, when you add coils to the equation, sleep quality significantly improves.
Better Edge Support
Edge support is one of the most important things to look for when shopping for a mattress. This feature is often overlooked until sleepers begin to suffer the consequences of sleeping on a mattress that lacks proper edge support. Without proper edge support, a mattress isn't stable enough to accommodate sleepers, especially when they turn in bed.
This is particularly important for sleepers who cannot support themselves due to disability, old age, sickness, weight problems, or other reasons. When a mattress lacks the proper edge support, the sleeper can easily slip off the bed, and potentially get injured when they fall on the floor.
However, organic hybrid latex mattresses have better edge support, thanks to the coil system. These coils are strategically positioned to support the sleeper along the edge of the bed, preventing falls.

FAQs
Below, we've answered some of the frequently asked questions about the organic hybrid latex mattress from PlushBeds and latex mattresses in general.
Are Innerspring Mattresses the Same as Coil Spring Mattresses?
Although the term 'innerspring mattresses' and 'coil spring mattresses' are often used interchangeably, there's a slight difference. Innerspring mattresses are mattresses made with coil systems. These are usually the traditional innerspring mattresses that consist of interconnected coils to provide structure to the bed.
On the other hand, unlike innerspring mattresses, coil spring mattresses come with individually-wrapped coils to provide resistance and support. For example, the hybrid latex mattress from PlushBeds is considered a coil spring mattress due to its structure.
In most cases, coil spring mattresses have coil systems that operate independently from each other. This system helps provide better motion transfer.
As mentioned earlier, when you sleep on the organic hybrid latex mattress from PlushBeds, its individually-wrapped coil system will support your body, even as you move on the bed. These coils move independently, not as a unit as innerspring mattresses do. As a result, your movements on the bed won't disrupt the other sleeper’s sleeping position.
Bear in mind that innerspring mattresses are known to have poor motion transfer. For this reason, coil spring mattresses are widely considered better than innerspring mattresses, as far as motion transfer is concerned.
What does the Term 'Organic Latex Mattress' Mean?
An organic latex mattress is a kind of mattress made from the sap of the rubber tree. The sap is then processed through either the Dunlop latex, or Talalay latex manufacturing processes.
Is an Organic Latex Mattress the Same as a Natural Latex Mattress?
Although the terms 'organic' and 'natural' are often used interchangeably, they have two different meanings. First, a natural latex mattress is a mattress that contains raw latex harvested from a rubber tree. This kind of mattress doesn't contain synthetic latex.
It's worth noting that synthetic latex refers to man-made latex. This latex is derived from petroleum compounds Butadiene and Styrene to form Styrene-Butadiene rubber, popularly referred to as SBR.
Conversely, an organic latex mattress is a type of natural latex mattress that doesn't contain chemicals and pesticides. However, it's important to note that some mattress manufacturers don't care about how they use these terms, although they have different meanings.
Therefore, before buying such a mattress, ensure it's certified by the Global Organic Latex Standard. This certification proves that the mattress is actually what it claims to be, whether hybrid, organic, or 100% natural.
Is a Hybrid Latex Mattress Better than a Memory Foam Mattress?
In most cases, yes. While memory foam beds are known for their body-hugging effect on the sleeper, hybrid latex mattresses are more comfortable, and last longer than memory foam mattresses. In addition, since some hybrid latex mattresses contain coils, they're usually more breathable than memory foam mattresses. Bear in mind that poor breathability is one of the reasons some sleepers avoid memory foam mattresses.
What is Blended Latex?
When it comes to the world of latex mattresses, blended latex refers to a combination of natural and synthetic latex before the molding process begins. Blended latex typically consists of 30% natural, and 70% synthetic latex.
What's the Purpose of Blended Latex?
To understand why blended latex exists in the first place, let's briefly discuss natural latex mattresses.
Natural latex mattresses contain 100% natural latex. However, it should be noted that this kind of latex is expensive due to the costs involved in growing and maintaining a rubber tree, not forgetting other costs, such as labor and transportation. As a result, 100% natural latex mattresses are expensive.
Then enters blended latex — combining synthetic and natural latex to create blended latex gives sleepers a more affordable mattress alternative.
Is an Organic Hybrid Latex Mattress Worth It?
Absolutely. Given that organic latex mattresses combine the benefits of a fabric-encased coil mattress with a natural latex mattress, sleepers enjoy the best of both worlds. As a result, hybrid latex mattresses offer comfort and extra support, which are among the most important things to look for in a mattress.
