Mattresses are the most important purchase for a bedroom and, unfortunately, one of the most expensive. As you all know, although a mattress may feel comfortable, it might be harmful to your health and to the environment. As previously stated on my posts, I am in the process of refurbishing my house. And since I intend to buy new bedroom furniture, I’m thinking also to spend some money on an eco friendly mattress for a good night's sleep.
But, why are Eco Friendly Mattresses so important? Let’s see: most mattresses are made primarily from polyurethane foam. This is a petroleum product with various added chemicals which turn it into foam. Other chemicals are then added to prevent the foam from igniting and burning, because after all it is petroleum. Further, most waterproofed mattresses are made waterproof by using a vinyl surface on the mattress. But vinyl off gasses phthalates which is a known toxic substance. In conclusion, even though they do not necessarily solve all problems, Organic Mattresses remove these (and other) potentially harmful chemicals.
After a little search work on the Internet, I found this online store offering high quality products at unbeatable prices. Being in this business for over 25 years and on the Internet since 1998, I hope they will help me create a cozy sanctuary and eliminate exposure to unhealthy synthetic chemicals found in conventional mattresses and bedding. Because after all, we spend a third of our lives in bed…
