When you consider buy Organic bedding you should consider Raw Material – The choice here is between using energy saving recycled materials or to manufacture biodegradable fibers. If there is a naturally grown fiber available, it must be a rapidly renewable resource and have the ability to grow with minimal chemical use (sound familiar?).

The Process – In preparing the raw material for use, there are a series of steps taken. From yarn-dying and spinning to the weaving and finishing of fabric, there should be no harmful chemicals involved. Additionally, the manufacturing facility must comply with environmental protection laws governing energy conservation, water treatment and chemical regulation.

Facility and Social Responsibility – Taking in the human factor, this criterion demands that manufacturers comply with fundamental human rights laws for improved working conditions. Also, manufacturers must initiate programs to promote green policies which can include recycling programs, using air quality improvement devices and educating employees on green consciousness.

Happy and healthy purchase!

That was a good breakdown, thanks! I sleep on a Natural Latex Mattress with pure wool topping and organic cotton cover. It was a great price too because I bought from the factory in North Vancouver BC. I think it was called Flexwood (Near Rona). Great mattress.

Also check out mattressrecycling.ca who recycles mattresses and deal with the crappy toxic ones every day. They cut them apart and recycle them.
