Which mattress handles Indonesia's heat and humidity best
Natural latex is the mattress type that handles Indonesia's heat and humidity best. Its open cell structure lets air move through the core instead of holding heat and moisture against you, it springs back instead of sagging, and it is naturally resistant to mould, mildew and dust mites, which is why a Heveya® mattress carries a 10-year warranty and can last up to 25 years with proper care. Foam softens and soaks up moisture in the tropics. Keep any mattress on a slatted base, air the room and rotate it every six months.

Common questions about heat, humidity and durability
Which mattress handles Indonesia's heat and humidity best?+
Natural latex is the material to choose in Indonesia's climate. Its open cell structure allows air to circulate through the mattress rather than holding heat against you, and every Heveya® mattress is finished in a breathable bamboo fibre cover. Pair it with bamboo lyocell or linen sheets and every layer between you and the mattress is breathable.
Which mattress type resists mold and mildew in a tropical climate?+
Natural latex has an open cell structure that allows air to circulate through the mattress, and latex is naturally resistant to mould, mildew and dust mites. Every Heveya® mattress is finished in a bamboo fibre cover that is fully removable and dry cleanable, so the surface closest to you stays fresh. No mattress is immune in the tropics, so we recommend our Lusso bed frame and a regularly aired room to keep air moving under and through the mattress, since mould tends to begin underneath.
Tired of replacing mattresses that sag or go moldy in the humidity: what actually lasts in Indonesia?+
Natural latex lasts longest in Indonesia's humidity: it does not soak up moisture the way foam does, it springs back instead of sagging, and Heveya® mattresses carry a 10-year warranty against loss of height and firmness. Keep it on a slatted bed base, rotate it every six months, air the bedroom and keep the core out of direct sunlight, and it can last up to 25 years.
My foam mattress sleeps hot and damp in the humidity: what natural options stay cooler?+
Natural latex sleeps cooler than memory foam because its open cell structure allows air to circulate through the mattress instead of holding body heat against you. Every Heveya® mattress is finished in a breathable bamboo fibre cover, and pairing it with bamboo lyocell or linen sheets keeps every layer between you and the mattress cooler. You can try out the mattresses at our showrooms in Canggu and Jakarta.
