Care<\/h3>
Are the Zaanta finish covers with Zipper provided to allow it to be washed?<\/div>
No, it is not. The organic fabric is not chemically treated to stabilise the fabric and such treatment if done will make the fabric non organic. As a result, the organic fabric if washed, may impair the fabric with shrinkage, pinching etc. For this reason the organic covers of Zaanta mattresses are not recommended for washing.<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
Can I use an electric blanket with the Zaanta mattress?<\/div>

You can use an electric blanket on a latex mattress, but it would be better not to, as an electric blanket does not allow the latex to breath. Rather use a thick flannel sheet or a thicker, warmer duvet.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

How do I remove the natural latex smell?<\/div>

ZAANTA is made from 100% pure, natural rubber and may come with a fresh, natural latex aroma. Our mattresses are safe to sleep on, however if you find the smell strong, please do air it out. The smell is NOT permanent and will subside the more you air it out or by using it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

How often do I need to flip the mattress?<\/div>

It is recommended that the mattress be flipped every few months. The mattress is made from a solid piece of latex so you can flip the mattress in any direction. Over a year, ensure that the mattress has rotated left to right, head to foot and over to under to extend the life of the mattress.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

What are the care instructions for the covers?<\/div>

Natural fabrics require special treatment. As our products avoid using ANY chemicals or dyes, the organic fibres in the fabric may shrink or lose colour to some degree, if improperly washed or exposed to heat and water. To minimise any risk of shrinking it is advised not to machine wash the ZAANTA natural fabric mattress covers.<\/p>\n

Rather remove the mattress cover and air it out in the sunlight to disinfect. For spot cleaning, use only dry powder. Seek professional advise for stronger stains.
\nIt is recommended to use a mattress protector to avoid staining the covers, as a preventative measure.<\/p>\n

For further maintenance tips for your mattress, please read our ZAANTA Care Instructions Manual.<\/p>\n
