To rest easy and ensure sustain-
ability as well as safety, concerned con-
sumers have turned to organic mattress-
es. The best of these use natural latex
cores, covered by organic cotton and
wool, to create a cradle of breathable
comfort and support. Mattresses that
do not contain fire-retardant chemicals

thickness of wool to meet the CPSC’s
standards. Green Sleep, a completely
organic European sleep system now
available in the U.S., is one manufac-
turer whose toxin-free mattresses meet
the requirements.
