Kenko Naturest

The Kenko Naturest Sleep System combines advanced scientific technology with natural materials that are environmentally renewable, chemical-free and naturally help you to enjoy refreshing, healthy sleep.

Our Sleep system Includes:

Kenko Naturest Mattress Topper:

•Patented RAM™ (radial-axis magnetism) Technology features spherical neodymium magnets, each rotated 60 degrees relative to its neighbor. This produces a series of overlapping magnetic fields to enfold and surround you.

•The physical foundation of the Kenko Naturest Mattress Topper is natural latex rubber - which provides an ideal blend of support and comfort, and is naturally resistant to microbial growth and dust mites. It retains firmness better than polyurethane foam, and wicks away moisture.

•A natural-fiber cover promotes ventilation, helps to regulate temperature - and offers natural resistance to flammability without adding the chemicals that some other sleep products require.

•The surface of specially molded, gradient-density nodules is the final touch, producing a massage effect that helps you sleep soundly and wake refreshed. After you try the Kenko Naturest Mattress Topper, you'll never want to sleep without it.

Kenko™ Naturest Custom Pillow


•A pillow that you can make as firm or as soft as you wish! The Kenko Naturest Custom Pillow includes RAM Technology, with organic fabrics and a natural filler that enhance ventilation for increased comfort.

•Inside the Kenko Naturest Custom Pillow is a special filler of shredded natural latex. It's designed so that you subtract or replace filler to achieve the desired degree of firmness - your personal perfect fit. The latex is especially resilient, so it resists being compressed flat, unlike a down or foam pillow.

•A head and neck insert provides correct spinal alignment. Deep within the Custom Pillow is patented RAM (radial-axis magnetism) Technology, a series of magnets arranged to surround you in a cocoon of magnetism.

The Kenko Dream Comforter features Ionic Comfort Technology - an idea based on the negative ions found in soothing outdoor settings.
Chitocotton, another innovation, contains chitosan, a natural substance derived from the shells of crustaceans. A magnetic layer complements the magnets in your Nikken mattress to complete the cocoon effect. Far-Infrared Technology is provided by ceramic-reflective fibers.
