Our new organic mattress will replace that toxic foam/vinyl/chemical flame retardant mattress that probably came with their cradle, co-sleeper, bassinet, play yard etc.
Ours is a simple style with solid organic latex rubber completely protected by ultra soft certified organic felted wool on the top side, and organic cotton on the bottom. The crib size mattresses are organic felted wool all around the organic latex rubber. The organic wool and organic latex rubber are both naturally resistant to dust mites, flame, and bacteria making this the safest choice.
Easy to care for. Clean with gentle soap and water if soiled with anything other than urine. Otherwise just air dry and bacteria will die within an hour!
WHY SHOULD YOU CHOOSE OURS?
1) It doesn't offgass harmful chemicals that have been linked to SIDS. Read about this at http://www.midwiferytoday.com/articles/bedding.asp?a=1&r=1&e=1&q=sids+crib+mattress
2) Our truly ORGANIC latex is CHEMICAL FREE! Don't let the words confuse you: "latex mattress," "natural rubber mattress," and "natural mattress" can all be used to describe products that are far from all-natural. Most so-called "natural rubber" mattresses are actually a blend of natural rubber and synthetic latex (styrene-butadiene rubber, or "SBR"), which can offgas unhealthful fumes. In fact, the latex for mattresses made by THE leading latex manufacturer contains some chemicals. Some "organic" latex mattresses have 30% benzene, which has been linked to leukemia. Ours is truly organic!
3) Sleeping on organic wool has been scientifically proven to regulate body temperature and heartbeat - great for SIDS prevention and also for just providing baby with a comfortable night's sleep! Wool is cool in the summer and warm in the winter. For more information on how sleeping on wool positively affects the body, please email us.
4) Our ultra soft organic felted wool mattress top is naturally dust mite resistant, and a natural flame retardant that MEETS ALL U.S. STANDARDS. The organic wool is used instead of BORIC ACID and PDBE's (polybrominated diphenyl ethers), which are used in conventional mattresses as flame retardants. Animal studies show that PBDE’s cause liver, thyroid, and neurological damage in lab rats. Health experts worry about most PBDE’s potential harm to fetuses and children under 6, but studies on human toxicity have only just begun. They are believed to be so toxic that Europe is phasing out the use of them completely! Boric acid: this chemical is also quite toxic, and is in fact used as a roach killer. The Environmental Protection Agency and Center for Disease Control warn of reproductive, developmental, and neurological damage. It has many known health risks just due to inhalation, a few of which are: inflammation of the upper respiratory tract (including asthma, dry throat and cough), eye irritation, and reproductive damage in boys/men (including low sperm count). Many other brands of so-called "organic" mattresses either still contain these chemical flame retardants, or they use their "natural" version, which is made from silica, which has been shown to be a factor in upper respiratory issues and asthma.
WHAT IS ORGANIC LATEX?
Truly natural/organic latex rubber is harvested by tapping the milk (sap) of Hevea brasiliensis (the common rubber tree), which grows within 10 degrees of the equator. The rubber tree sap is whipped up and turned into latex foam. This is truly a sustainable resource because sap can be collected from the trees up to 180 days per year and the tree heals within an hour.
