Every luxury mattress is manufactured by hand of wool, cotton, flax, and horse hair. The bed frames are constructed of Swedish Pine, and the springs of Swedish steel.
Hastens was begun in 1852, making saddles and carriage seats. The company logo echoes its history, as hast is translated as horse in Swedish. It was common knowledge in the 19th century that horse hair made the highest quality stuffing material for saddles and carriage seats. Hastens has not forgotten that essential information. Each bed is crafted by skilled individuals, by hand. In spite of the higher demand for Hasten mattresses, the company does not slack off on hand made quality.
The box for each luxury mattress is constructed of Swedish Pine, grown slowly in the north of Sweden. This conifer is a heavy, fine grained wood that acquires a deep golden color over time. Hastens buys only the finest tempered steel springs manufactured completely in Sweden. The coil design in a Hastens mattress is proprietary. Each spring is formed prior to being tempered so that it keeps its form and height. Then each coil is pocketed separately so that it can move independently of every other coil.

Beneath the cotton is wool. Wool has the ability to both insulate and cool. It regulates temperature so that a sleeper will not be too warm or too cold. The historic non synthetic fiber, flax, is used around and under the springs to absorb dampness and block the accumulation of static electricity. Flax is also durable and bendable, giving padding around the springs.

It provides a natural ventilation method in that any moisture that contacts it becomes a gas almost immediately. This method provides cooling for horses, and the properties of the horsehair provide that same benefit in a mattress. Horsehair also provides a natural springiness to the inner padding of a Hastens mattress. Horsehair also repels dust mites. Hastens processes the horse hair, cuts, sews, and ties the mattress by hand. Hastens says, `machines may do it cheaper, but humans always do it better.
Optional quilts and pillows are stuffed with natural down, the most insulating and moisture tempering filling known for comforters.
