Why Your Mattress Should Change with You — Matching Sleep Support to Every Stage of Life

26/06/2025 | Nooknik

We all know that sleep is essential. But what most people overlook is this:

As we grow older, our bodies change and so should our mattress.

A mattress that worked in your twenties might not support you in your forties. Each age group has different needs: from posture support, pressure relief, to ease of movement. Choosing the right mattress doesn’t just help you sleep better, it helps you live better.

At Dunlopillo, we understand that good sleep isn’t just about softness or firmness.
It’s about matching the right comfort and support to your body, your lifestyle, and your age.

Let’s explore what different generations really need from their mattress and which Dunlopillo model is made just for them.
