Firmness Info

The Birch Mattress was designed with a medium-firm feel. If you're looking for something softer, we offer a Plush Pillow Top that lays directly on top of your Birch to provide an extra soft layer - this 3" pillow top can be purchased after you receive the mattress if you do want a softer feel or with your mattress.

The GhostBed 3D Matrix is a 5.5 to 6.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale (10 = too hard, 0 = too soft). The feel is slightly softer than the GhostBed and similar to the Flex.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

The Birch mattress was designed by Helix, the team behind the leading mattress brand in customized sleep. Birch takes those learnings in comfort and uses all natural and organic materials. The Birch mattress is a 6 layer construction:

  • Cover - Organic Cotton
  • Fire Retardant Cover - Wool
  • Comfort Layer - Birch Wool
  • Pressure Relief Layer - Natural Talalay Latex
  • Support Layer - Individually Wrapped Coils
  • Base Layer - Wool Batting.

The new 13" GhostBed 3D Matrix hybrid mattress has patented 3D Matrix Technology. This exclusive Gel Polymer layer scientifically adjusts to your individual body shape and temperature. The mattress is a seven layer construction:

  • Cooling Cover
  • 3D Matrix Polymer Layer
  • 1" Gel Memory Foam
  • 1" Ghost Bounce Layer (Special Gel-Infused Memory Foam)
  • 1" Ghost 3D Matrix Soft Transition Foam
  • 8.5" Individually Wrapped & Reinforced Support Coils
  • 1" High Density Support Foam.

Comfort Info

Our materials come from nature - whether it be wool sustainably sheared from New Zealand sheep or latex tapped from trees. These premium materials are comfortable on your body and conscience.

3D Matrix Polymer Layer offers 3 dimensions of comfort:

  • The 3D Matrix layer is an integrated thermal conductive gel polymer. As excess heat accumulates under and around the sleeper, it is absorbed into 3D Matrix layer. As a fully connected sheet, that absorbed heat travels away from the sleeper.
  • Conventional Foam layers comfort you by compressing as different parts of the body "press" on the foam. The 3D Matrix layer is an omni directional layer which stretches in all directions to mold and contour to each individual part of the sleeper's body.
  • The 3D Matrix layer is ergonomically designed which allows the sleeper to sleep on the mattress, NOT in it.

Support Info

We spent countless hours finding the right density of latex, quantity of wool, and type of steel springs to provide unprecedented comfort and pressure relief.
Each mattress features a reinforced perimeter for best in class edge support. The coils that run along the outside of your mattress are actually firmer, so no more feeling of falling off the bed when lying down or sitting on the edge.

The core of the GhostBed 3D Matrix features the patented Ghost 3D Matrix innerspring coil unit with our Spirited Edge™ support Design. With two rows of specially reinforced coils along the edge of the bed make it easier to sit comfortably without slipping off the edge plus you can sleep right on the edge without feeling like you'll fall off.

Comfort Specs

100% all natural & organic Birch Wool provides unparalleled comfort and temperature regulation. Birch Wool is designed to retain shape with a natural elasticity of each fiber.
Talalay latex is up to 7 times more breathable than other types of latex. Natural latex is also hypoallergenic and anti-microbial.

The GhostBed 3D Matrix Mattress features the exciting new 3D Matrix technology. This new comfort layer technology is revolutionary because it automatically bio-adjusts to two different body shapes and body temperatures at the same time, creating the ideal sleeping environment for both sleepers. The 3D Matrix layer automatically bio-adjusts to both sleep partners through simultaneous heat diffusion and weight distribution - two critical elements in sound sleep. The 3D Matrix allows excess heat is drawn away from the body. The Gel Polymer layer stretches in all directions conforming to the body without causing it to sink into the mattress.
Gel-infused Memory Foam absorbs and dissipates body heat as fresh air passes through the foam.

Support Specs

Natural Talalay latex provides response to cushion your pressure points while giving support. Our latex is carefully managed to ensure consistency.
Hundreds of individual steel coils help to cradle your body and provide support, while also limiting motion transfer. Additionally, the reinforced perimeter coils provide best in class edge support.

The 3D Matrix ensures body weight is distributed evenly, relieving pressure and reducing the body's need to reposition itself, allowing each sleeper to wake up well rested, free of aches and pains, and energized to embrace the coming day.
Ghost 3D Matrix Soft Transition Foam is one inch of pure pressure relief. This layer contours to your body and reduces the need to toss and turn.
Individually wrapped coils provide that sturdy, responsive support of traditional innerspring mattresses you're used to.

Fabric Specs

The Birch Mattress has a cover that is made using natural, organic cotton. It is designed to be highly breathable with a subtle stretch and soft touch.

Featuring the same cover used in other GhostBed models, the cover contains a proprietary formulation developed in Japan where cooling properties are woven directly into the fibers of the yarn, creating the Ghost Ice Fabric. The Ghost Ice Fabric is instantly cool to the touch, and will absorb and trap heat that is released by the body. Molecular changes in the fabric will neutralize the heat, keeping the sleeping surface cool.
