WHAT PILLOW AND MATTRESS IS RIGHT FOR ME?
Many factors influence which pillow and mattress is right for you. Technogel offers general recommendations for pillows based on tests that evaluate ergonomic
suitability for various body types and sleeping positions.
The best way to determine which mattress is best for you is to rest-test it. We
recommend visiting a retail store near you and taking your time to experience the bed in a way that is as similar as possible to sleeping on it every night. All technogel
sleeping mattresses offer the benefits of the technogel material and are designed to provide the luxury of soft comfort combined with superior support. The model of technogel mattress that is best for you depends significantly on your needs and/or preference for a softer or firmer feel.
Because everyone is unique, we cannot suggest one model will definitely be perfect for you. Please utilize the information on the product sections of our website as well as the knowledge of the sales associate at your local technogel retailer to decide which model you should purchase.
WHAT HAPPENS IF A SHARP OBJECT PUNCTURES THE GEL? IS TECHNOGEL PET FRIENDLY?
Technogel is a unique patented “soft solid” gel that blends the adaptability of a fluid with the durability of a solid. During the production process, technogel is molded to a thin polyurethane film that forms the gel’s soft, hygienic surface. In the event that this film layer is punctured, the gel is solid enough that it will not leak or spread. Very small tears may go unnoticed; in the event of a large rip, the only perceivable
difference will be stickiness in the damaged area.
Technogel is the only soft gel on the market made without plasticizer oils, and it is completely safe for the skin; it is non-toxic, hypo-allergenic, odorless and certified biocompatible. Additionally, we use hypo-allergenic textiles to cover all technogel sleeping products.
DOES THE GEL STAY COOL ALL NIGHT? WILL IT MAKE ME TOO COLD?
The refreshing, cool feeling that makes technogel popular and helps you to sleep
better is the result of the gel material’s intrinsic thermal conductivity that favors heat dispersion. Studies have shown that this thermal conductivity can lower the surface temperature of your skin by as much as 4°f, which helps support deep sleep. This means that technogel is interacting with heat emitted from your body to help prevent you from waking too hot and sweaty during the course of the night.
It is also important to understand that technogel’s thermal properties are a direct
response to the environment around it, meaning that it will feel more or less cool when you first lay down depending on conditions like the air temperature in your room. Additionally, it responds to your individual heat level to achieve a balance between the temperature of the material and your body, which helps support thermal conditions that are more pleasant for sleeping.
If you want to heighten or reduce the cooling effect of the gel, some other factors to consider are using the “winter” cover that comes with the pillow, using breathable (wool) blankets, and adjusting the temperature of the room between 68-73°f so that it’s most comfortable for you.
HOW SHOULD I WASH MY PILLOW COVER? ARE THE PILLOWS WASHABLE?
It is recommended to always use a pillowcase on your pillow.
All technogel sleeping pillows come with a soft, “winter cover” that can be removed to increase the feeling of the gel and/or to wash it periodically. The removable “winter cover” may be washed in your washing machine in cool water (no bleach) and line dry is recommended; please refer to the tag on the cover for complete care instructions.
The internal jersey cover is sewn on for added protection, and should not be
removed. Please note that tampering with this inner cover will void your warranty.
CAN I USE A MATTRESS COVER? WHICH TYPE OF SHEETS SHOULD I USE?
We recommend you use a mattress protector between your bed sheets and your technogel mattress. If you opt to use a mattress protector, it’s optimal to get one that is thin and pliable to preserve the maximum benefits of sleeping on technogel (like protect-a-bed).
We also suggest using bed linens on your mattress and pillows. Most sheets sold on the market should fit the twinxl, queen and king sizes accordingly. Any brand you prefer is fine; sheex is a special performance linen that we have found to help
enhance the thermal regulatory properties of the technogel while also maintaining
the feeling of technogel.
THE ZIPPER BROKE ON MY TECHNOGEL ("WINTER COVER") PILLOWCASE. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
Please contact the retailer where you purchased your technogel sleeping pillow to request a replacement cover for instances when the zipper breaks.
WILL MY PILLOW AND MATTRESS SMELL WHEN I BRING THEM HOME?
Technogel is the only gel on the market made without plasticizer oils; it is non-toxic, hypo-allergenic and odorless.
While the gel material will not emit odors from offgassing, the foam used in technogel sleeping products may release a mild odor that can be addressed by
leaving the product uncovered in a well-ventilated room for a day or two.

ARE ALL AUPING MATTRESSES SUITABLE FOR AN ADJUSTABLE BED BASE?
Yes, all auping mattresses in the current product range are suitable for an adjustable bed base. To make sure that the mattress does not slide, you can connect the
mattress to the mesh base with mattress connectors. These are handy clips that can
be clipped at each desired spot of the spiral mesh. Our box springs are made
standard with velcro on the topside, so that the mattress does not move.
CAN AN AUPING MATTRESS BE COMBINED WITH A NON-AUPING BED BASE?
You are of course free to combine an auping mattress with a non-auping bed base. But an auping mattress and base are specifically matched to each other, will allow the three elements that are important for a good night’s rest (ventilation, support, and pressure reduction) to perform in the best possible way. This will guarantee a fresh and comfortable sleep.
CAN AN AUPING TOP MATTRESS BE COMBINED WITH A NON-AUPING MATTRESS?
It is possible to combine an auping top mattress with a non-auping mattress. But an auping top mattress and mattress are specifically matched to each other, will allow the three elements that are important for a good night’s rest (ventilation, support, and pressure reduction) to perform in the best possible way. This will guarantee a good night’s rest.
CAN I ADJUST THE FIRMNESS OF MY MATTRESS?
In many cases it is possible to adjust the firmness of your mattress to one of the available firmnesses. The mattresses will have to be sent to auping for this. You will be charged for this. For more information, we advise you to contact an auping store in your area.
CAN I ORDER A BED IN A DIFFERENT SIZE?
Auping beds are available in a number of standard widths and lengths. Refer to the product pages to see which models are available in which sizes, or go to the auping store and ask the sales representative for advice.
WHAT IS THE LIFE SPAN OF AN AUPING MATTRESS?
Auping advises to change a mattress after eight to a maximum of ten years. A
mattress will eventually loose its firmness and it will no longer be comfortable. The life span of a mattress is determined by its composition and use.
Auping mattresses are made of moisture regulating materials that will wick away the moisture you loose at night and removes it. Also the type of mesh base is important to the life span of your mattress; a mesh base is 80% open and therefore offers very good ventilation.
You yourself can contribute to the life span of a mattress by ensuring good ventilation of the bedroom and bed. Leave the bedroom window open during the day and slightly open at night so that moisture from perspiration can evaporate naturally.
CAN I EXCHANGE MY MATTRESS IF I DON'T LIKE IT FREE OF CHARGE?
The body needs one to a few weeks to get used to a new mattress. You will also find a new mattress to be firmer in the beginning.
Should you not be satisfied after a few weeks with the mattress(es), then you can claim the auping trade in guarantee.
HOW DO I DETERMINE THE MOST SUITABLE MATTRESS?
Which mattress is the most suitable depends on a few factors. Of course your build matters, but also allergies and physical complaints may influence your choice of
mattress. The auping mattress advisor will help you find out which mattress is most suitable for you. We will of course advise to test some mattresses in one of our stores in your area.
All auping mattresses can be used on both a mesh base as well as a box spring. Do take into account that there is a difference in laying comfort. A mesh base will give a direct, stable support, while a box spring is generally a bit softer.

HOW SHOULD I MAINTAIN MY BED/DUVET/ PILLOW/ COVER?
Your auping product will have a guaranteed long life span. The miscellaneous products are delivered with a manual for washing instructions. Please consult our maintenance tips.

WHY SHOULD YOU PURCHASE VITA TALALAY® PRODUCTS?
There are many reasons to buy a vita talalay. All benefits are linked to the open, round cell structure, that makes you sleep fresh and with a lifting comfort.
HOW CAN I BE SURE I BOUGHT A VITA TALALAY PRODUCT?
For all brands on our website, you can be sure you bought a mattress, topper our
pillow with vita talalay inside.
WHAT RADIUM FOAM WANTS TO ACHIEVE?
We want to give people around the world the opportunity to sleep healthy by creating the a natural product and embracing a healthy environment for the best night’s rest. We are of the opinion that talalaly latex must be made in the way the inventor joseph talalay intended it. This means using the pure sap of the hevea brasiliensis tree without adding unnecessary additives that do not contribute to the quality of the product. We believe that vita talalay® offers the best ventilating and comfortable sleeping experience due to it’s millions of round open cells. Premium beds only need vita talalay®. The best proof is provided by the bed-makers themselves: they usually also sleep on vita talalay®, so why not the consumer?
IS PURE NATURAL VITA TALALAY AS NATURAL AS PURE NATURAL DUNLOP?
Yes, it is. Looking at the end result the product is most of the time even more natural, but as long as there are no artificial additives or fillers used you will usually get to an end result of more than 95% natural. Look for the eco-institut certification with latex that analyses a product to be made out of pure natural latex.
There are companies and retailers that call products with 85% natural latex already a natural product. We don’t do that. It has to be as pure as possible. We guarantee.
IS VITA TALALAY ECO FRIENDLY / GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT?
Yes definitely. There are many good ecological reasons preferring vita talalay over any other comfort material
ARE VITA TALALAY PRODUCTS SAFE FOR PEOPLE WITH ALLERGIES?
For somebody with latex allergy, vita talalay is safe. We have never received any feedback from consumers with regards to latex allergy linked to the proteins that cause the allergy. The reason is that the proteins are washed out during the
production process and the latex is tucked in the mattress.
For people with dust mite allergy, vita talalay brings an added benefit as the talalay process makes such an airy product that it gives no ground for dust mites to live in.
ARE VITA TALALAY PRODUCTS RECYCLABLE?
Yes, they are. If they are reclaimed by the mattress retailer or given to a recycling point, the latex can be reused for underfloor or insulation.
HOW LONG DO VITA TALALAY PRODUCTS LAST?
Vita talalay is used being part of many mattresses, toppers, and pillows. It is tested to be more durable than memory foam or dunlop latex. However the brands we use to decide on the warranty terms they can offer. In general bedding brands love talalay because they get very little complaints on durability exceeding the recommended consumer replacement times of a pillow (3 years) or mattress (7 years) by far.
ARE VITA TALALAY PRODUCTS WASHED ?
All vita talalay products have been washed well with pure, clear water, that is only used one single time, washing out soaps and left over proteins.
Comparisons (analysis) with other latex suppliers have shown that our washing
process is very thorough.
ARE VITA TALALAY PRODUCTS CERTIFIED?
We have several certifications: all our products are oekotex 100 class 1 certified;
natural vita talalay has the cradle to cradle gold and the eco-institut certification. All certifications show that our products are safe. For the uk we have the fira certificate, showing that the natural vita talalay fr is fireretardant according to uk legislation.
ARE VITA TALALAY PRODUCTS 100% NATURAL?
Natural vita talalay is made with pure natural latex. In the production process we need a “vulcanization paste” that helps in the baking process. In the end result 97% is natural latex and the other 3% are natural remnants of the production process. The washing process washes out proteins and soaps used during the process.
IS VITA TALALAY ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY?
Yes! There are many ecological reasons for vita talalay® preference over any other comfort material.
DO I SLEEP COOL WITH TALALAY?
Yes, you do. Tests show that the resistance to the heat (and moisture, which is
produced by the human heat, which can sweat) with talalay is much less than with
memory foam. See also the illustration below where talalay compared with memory foam.
Test by custom8 2013.
This shows that the vertical penetration much less (in cm) in the latex of heat and humidity is compared to a generally-known memory foam.
IS THERE A RISK OF AN ALLERGIC REACTION TO LATEX USED IN THE MATTRESSES?
Vita talalay® is absolutely non-allergenic, all products meet the ökotex 100 class I standard. This means that our products are also safe for babies. The washing
process of the vita talalay® method ensures that all proteins and soaps are washed out. People sometimes link the allergic reactions to latex gloves with latex beds, but the material can not be compared. Latex allergies are available in different forms. A very rare form is hypersensitivity to latex. In this case, the allergic reaction can be caused by exposure to particles in the air. These particles can be derived from
inexpensive unwashed latex. Frequent but still rare is the allergic reaction of the skin to latex, caused by long-term intensive contact with the skin. An allergic reaction may occur. Causes can be chemical substances in the latex or the protein in the
natural latex. Since the production start in 1961, radium foam has never heard that our products have caused an allergic reaction. There are various reasons for this. The high quality of the latex used. That each product is thoroughly rinsed and washed and that the residues of proteins and soap are removed. Or because there is no direct contact between the skin and talalay. But a reason may also be that vita talalay® products are oeko-tex standard 100 product class I certified, which means that they are free from harmful substances and even safe for the baby’s skin. But also because vita talalay® is permeable, which means a lower accumulation of dust mites and fungus. Much more often people are sensitive to house dust mites or have an asthma allergy. That is why vita talalay® is recommended to people who are prone to allergies.

WHAT SIZE MATTRESS SHOULD I CHOOSE?
For all practical matters, you should choose a mattress size based on the space you have in your room. And for your comfort, you should make a choice based on your morphology and sleeping habits. (Sleeping position, sleep alone or with your
partner…). For example, we recommend at least choosing a 160 x 200 cm
mattress for a couple.
WHAT EXACTLY DOES MATTRESS “COMFORT” MEAN?
The comfort is the sum of two very important notions when testing a mattress: the sleep surface and support.
The first is the initial feeling you get upon lying down. The sleep surface can be plush, sumptuous or dynamic. The second is the degree of firmness you feel throughout the night and which keeps your spine aligned (medium-firm, firm, very firm).
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF COMFORT?
The comfort of a mattress is determined by the support (medium-firm, firm or very firm) as well as the sleep surface (sumptuous, firm, dynamic). At tréca, we offer a number of varied and even customizable comforts to suit your own unique needs.
HOW CAN YOU DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THE TWO SLEEP SIDES: SUMMER SIDE AND WINTER SIDE?
All of our tréca mattresses have got a summer and a winter sleep side to guarantee optimal sleep year round. A label sewn into the head of the mattress on the strip
indicates the winter side with an arrow. If you cannot find this information, here’s a little reminder: the winter side is the top when you can read our embroidered handles the right way up. When they are upside down, the top is the summer side.
WHAT TYPES OF MATERIALS ARE USED IN YOUR MATTRESSES?
Tréca carefully selects noble, rare and all-natural materials like arles merino wool, mohair wool, alpaca wool, french linen, silk, cashmere… Where are your products made? All of our products are made in france at our workshop in mer near the
chambord castle or at our historic reichshoffen workshop in alsace.
WHAT IS THE BEST MATTRESS FOR BACKPAIN?
The ideal mattress depends on your morphology, your sleeping position as well as your personal sleep preferences. The most important thing is for your spine to be
perfectly aligned.
WHICH MATTRESS SHOULD I CHOOSE IF I DON’T WANT TO FEEL MY SPOUSE MOVING AROUND ALL NIGHT?
The air spring suspension in our mattresses offers unbeatable independent support because of the pocket spring suspension system.
DO I NEED TO TURN MY MATTRESS OVER IN SUMMER AND WINTER?
We recommend rotating your mattress from head to foot and from the winter to
summer side regularly to even out the natural compression of the padding materials.
WHAT IS YOUR PRODUCT WARRANTY?
Tréca guarantees its mattress and bed bases for 5 years as long as all of the warranty conditions have been observed. If you purchase a tréca mattress and bed base
together, the warranty is extended to 7 years. Mechanical elements and accessories are covered by a 2-year warranty.
WHAT IS THE MINIMUM HEIGHT FOR A GOOD MATTRESS?
The height or thickness of a mattress does not define the quality. What’s most
important are the materials. Tréca mattresses are designed with exceptional
materials that guarantee a long life and excellent mattress comfort.
HOW LONG DOES A TRÉCA MATTRESS LAST?
Our mattresses are very high quality and made to last a long time. Changing your bedding is a personal choice we can’t make for you (a move, a desire for something new, hygiene…). However, we can be sure of one thing. If you want to change your bedding, you’ll want another tréca mattress!
