Horsehair

Few materials can match horsehair when it comes to making a bed. Horsehair comes with its own, extremely effective, built-in ventilation system. Moisture passes through the hollow strands so quickly that if you wet horsehair with water and give it a shake, it dries straight away. So horses have their own air conditioning system that keeps them dry in the heat of summer. This quick-drying property is perfect for a mattress because body temperatures often transform into moisture in the form of perspiration.




Cotton
You have probably noticed how much less sweaty you feel on a warm summer day when you wear a shirt or blouse made of cotton rather than one made from synthetic materials. This is due to cotton’s ability to ventilate and wick away perspiration and high humidity. Since your perspiration during the night is 98 per cent water, it evaporates very easily if you sleep on a bed that breathes, with bed linen that does the same. In the right bed you won’t feel sweaty. You will stay dry and comfortable all night at the temperature that is right for your body. That’s why you’ll sleep much better. All Hästens beds and mattresses are upholstered in the finest quality cotton. In addition a layer of cotton wadding is placed directly under the fabric, making it especially soft to lie on.



Wool

Pure new wool is used as stuffing in Hästens beds. Wool is an important component in the membrane that regulates the temperature of the bed and ensures outstanding comfort. Since wool has the amazing ability to warm and to cool, it works as the bed’s natural climate control unit. You stay dry and sleep at just the right temperature.






Flax

Cotton/wool, flax, genuine horsehair and Hästens’ new unique patented spring
system work together to make the Hästens Naturally Adjustable ultra-comfortable.  
The Hästens Naturally Adjustable takes the role of the bed to a new level; a bed
is no longer only for sleeping in. The Hästens Naturally Adjustably guarantees high comfort when you watch TV, eat or read. Your imagination is the only limit.

Pine

The bed frame gives Hästens beds remarkable strength and stability. Our frames are built from solid pine from the north of Sweden, which is grown slowly for maximum strength. All of the wooden slats in a Hästens bed frame rest on the strong outer beams or are situated in grooves cut into the beams. The slats are also nailed into place giving the bed frame even more strength and stability. This means two things: you’ll hardly notice if your partner moves in bed, and the bed will be extremely quiet.




Steel

With a Hästens bed you can enjoy the latest technology in bed springs. Hästens’ new patented spring system, combined with our special tempered Swedish springs, make our beds wonderfully soft on the surface with comfortable support at every level. This new patented system means that each spring can move more independently of the others, creating the most pliable and flexible bed. The springs used in Hästens beds are made in Sweden and are of the very highest quality.




Down

Nothing compares to falling asleep with Hästens pillows and comforters. Down as a filling material stays dry and gives comforting warmth all year around. Down is nature’s own stuffing, tried and tested over millions of years. It insulates and holds warmth from your body, while allowing moisture to evaporate. When you sleep with Hästens comforters and pillows, you always sleep at the right temperature and humidity level.
