With so many different types of mattresses out there, it’s really hard to know what you are actually getting. Chemical-laden mattresses are inundating the market, creating an unhealthy and sickly home environment for the consumer and in general, the earth. As a result, many people are turning to an eco-friendly alternative for their sleeping needs. The problem then becomes, what makes an eco-friendly mattress better? What are the specific things one should look for while shopping for an eco-friendly mattress?

Catherine Girardeau of Greenrightnow.com recently wrote a spectacular article about the ins and outs of eco-friendly mattresses: what chemical usage to look out for, real life testimonials and a more in depth view of the mattress industry. Keetsa is proud to be one of the safe and reliable eco-friendly mattress companies profiled. Catherine herself is a proud owner of our luxurious Tea Leaf Supreme model (pictured below)!

Other innovative, earth and human friendly products profiled include Lifekind, Inc., FloBeds, Naturepedic, and Organic Mattresses, Inc. All these companies specialize in 100% organic and chemical free mattresses, three of these companies are complete with a Greenguard certification.

If you are in the market for an eco-friendly mattress, I strongly suggest checking out Catherine’s article “Chemical-laden Mattress Keeping You Up at Night?” on Greenrightnow.com. It is informative, well written, and profiles some great mattress companies working to make a difference.
