Springwall® Chiropractic® Mattresses With Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Materials

How to Choose an Eco-Friendly Mattress in Canada

The most important distinction in sustainable mattresses is what the comfort layers and cover are actually made from. Organic latex — sourced from rubber tree sap and certified to GOTS or OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 — is the gold standard for eco-conscious sleepers because it is naturally durable, hypoallergenic, and biodegradable. Evergreen organic latex models at National Mattress use organic cotton covers with organic wool flame barriers, avoiding synthetic fire retardants entirely. For shoppers who prefer a traditional feel, brands like Springwall and NM use soy-based BioFoam™ and BioComfort™ foams that replace a portion of petroleum-based polyols with plant-derived alternatives, while Beautyrest Harmony Lux mattresses feature SEAQUAL™ fabric woven from recycled ocean plastic. Stearns & Foster wraps every Estate and Lux Estate model in sustainably sourced Tencel™ lyocell covers that are moisture-wicking and produced in a closed-loop process.

Look for third-party certifications rather than unverified marketing claims: CertiPUR-US® confirms foam is free of ozone depleters, heavy metals, and PBDEs, while OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 tests the finished textile for over 350 harmful substances. Every mattress at National Mattress carries at least one of these certifications, and the majority are manufactured in Canadian factories — reducing the carbon footprint associated with overseas shipping.
