Our goal from the very beginning at Organic Sleepworks was to create
a bed without any metal used as structural support. Since metal coil springs
are unnecessary and less than ideal for use in a mattress, we believed that
the same was true for the base. Therefore, when you purchase an Organic
Sleepworks bed, you don’t receive a “box spring” with your mattress—instead
you receive a “slatbase.”
Our slat suspension system is composed of a solid wood frame—no pressed wood
or particle board—and the slats themselves are 100% beechwood attached to
the frame with rubber connectors which allow for flexion and rotation.
There is no electromagnetic or negative energetic interference field with
wood slats. In Chinese Medicine as well as Ayurvedic Medicine, the very
idea of sleeping on a surface with any metal undernealth your body is
unthinkable. When you spend as much time as you do lying down to sleep,
rest and regenerate and since our bodies are very bio-electric, metal is
simply not the ideal material to use in a mattress or base to lay on.
The slats also function as a dynamic interface with the mattress by flexing
and rotating from the compression of the mattress above. Since the mattress
moulds and conforms to the contour of your body, in the same way, the
slatbase conforms to the contour of the mattress thereby functioning as a
single unit.
