Auping Kiruna wool top mattress
The ticking
The top layer of a top mattress is the ticking.
The Kiruna wool top mattress is finished with a knitted fabric made from pure wool, polyester and Tencel®. Wool absorbs moisture very well thanks to its overlapping scales structure, so it’s very comfortable for sleeping on. Tencel is a type of viscose made from eucalyptus wood. This wood comes from special, sustainably managed forests where a new tree is planted for every tree used, and it bears the EU Ecolabel.
The core
The inside of the Kiruna wool top mattress is made from Latex Pura, which is a material consisting of a large percentage natural latex that has very good ventilation. This latex has been specially developed for Auping and is produced in a sustainable way. It has a meshed pattern that provides extra resilience and feels soft with good ventilation.

How well can you recycle our mattresses?
About 35 million mattresses are discarded and thrown away in Europe alone every year. Many mattresses are burned or end up on the rubbish dump. At Auping, we want to do this differently. Better.
Mattresses are difficult to recycle due to the complex composition of glued materials. At Auping, we develop mattresses that are as recyclable as possible. Auping Inizio scores a B label.
The materials can be reused continuously to make new mattresses. That is circular.
Don’t be ashamed. A big part of the materials is reused to make, for example, a judo mat or sound insulation. We call it downcycling.
The materials are ground down into granules that are burned in the incinerator. The heat released in this process is used to generate electricity.
The materials end up as landfill.
Did you know that a lot of mattresses end up in the rubbish dump unnecessarily? Therefore, always take your old mattress to an Auping store or waste disposal station for the best possible processing.
