mattress and box spring must not have any latex or any foam products--life threatening allergies

I am currently in need of a new mattress and box spring for a double bed that absolutely cannot have any latex or foam due to major COPD and allergies.

I also have some bone issues and prefer a soft mattress. Since I do not have allergies to down, silk or wool, I have been trying to find a mattress and box spring that meets my requirements. 

Have no issues getting one custom made except that it is proving impossible to find this service near my home in Philadelphia.

My current set is 20 years old and has cashmere and silk, over coils. It is finally giving out but cannot find a replacement.

Appreciate any help in finding some place to get what is needed.

Thanks.

Royal Pedic, SleepTek, Vi-Spring, Hastens, Savoir.  All brands worth looking at....some may require a wool topper or feather bed to get the desired softness. SleepTek will be very well priced

How about a water bed? Or "floatation system"? I know many now do have some kind of foam layers in them but maybe you could find one without it. Or do any of the air mattresses have no foam?

Has anyone heard of these beds? They claim no foam at all, but just materials like cotton and wool:

They're in Canada and probably cost the earth, but sound good!
