When you start looking for a mat for your baby, you face an avalanche of options. At Maison Theo we made one decision from the start: 100% cotton outside and 100% wool inside. Here is why.
The cotton outside: the only material that should touch your baby's skin
A newborn's skin is three to five times thinner than an adult's. Natural cotton is hypoallergenic, breathable, antistatic and washable. It does not itch, does not irritate and releases nothing onto your baby's skin.
The wool inside: what many people don't know and nobody offers
Most baby mats on the market are filled with polyurethane foam or polyester fibre. Foam emits volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and polyester fibre is microplastic. Natural wool has neither problem.
At Maison Theo: 100% cotton outside, 100% wool inside. No compromises.

Polyurethane foam compresses with use and loses its shape within months. Natural wool recovers its shape and keeps its padding for years.
Wool regulates temperature naturally
Wool acts as a two-way thermal regulator: in summer it dissipates heat and in winter it retains it. Your baby will not sweat on the mat in summer or feel cold in winter.
Wool is naturally dust-mite resistant and antibacterial
The structure of natural wool fibre creates a hostile environment for dust mites and bacteria, without any chemical treatment.
