Premium Foam Core Futon with Australian Cotton
Hand made to order in Byron Bay.
PLEASE NOTE : we unusually take 4 weeks to make your futon to order, but due to our Christmas and January 2025 holiday closure, futons ordered after 1st December will be dispatched late January 2025.
The foam used in the Premium series of Futons is a premium high density foam, giving a long life to the mattress, and comfort for many years.
This futon comes with thick Australian cotton (carded) padding either side of the internal foam center (core).
Zentai’s unique method of manufacture guarantees quality of workmanship. All our futons are double lined to prevent cotton from shifting or lumping. We use the patented ‘T-tufting’ system ( not strings ). Our futons are hand tufted using European made plastic-top mattress T tufts (tuft size W 18mm x H 4mm x D 3mm).Extra tufting ensures consistency and longevity. Only the best materials are used in manufacture. We use A-grade Australian cotton and superior quality CFC free foam. For more info about the quality workmanship going into our futon mattresses please review our FAQ page.
Our quality futons are covered in organic cotton & viscose woven fabric – made to our specifications (Viscose is a manufactured regenerated, plant derived cellulose fiber).
This mattress is recommended for use on a bed frame - not on the floor.

Futon is a natural fiber mattress which requires high maintenance - regular turning, weekly sunning and airing (for a couple of hours) in direct sunlight. Sunning will dry out any moisture, re-fluff the cotton fibers to a degree, and refresh your futon. Weekly flipping and rotating is also recommended to achieve even compression.
Futon’s main component is carded cotton which naturally “compacts and compresses”. Natural cotton has no memory and doesn’t spring back. After regular use (or a break-in period of 6 to 8 weeks ) you will notice the development of a body signature in your futon - this is a normal occurrence and indicates that the cotton layers are conforming to the contours of your body. Cotton will settle / compress about 50% of its original thickness and will get firmer with age.
Warranty:
All Zentai futons are covered by a 24 month warranty.
Do I need to use a mattress protector on my futon mattress?
Yes, we recommend that you always use a Natural Cotton or Wool type mattress protector on your futon mattress. This will absorb any body moisture and, therefore, extend the life of your mattress. The mattress protector can be washed regularly, ensuring a healthier sleep. Our Bambi Cottina 100% Cotton Mattress Protector is the perfect choice.
