As we spend almost a third of our lives in bed and absorb chemicals into our bodies from our surroundings, it’s hardly surprising that our sleeping environment, especially our mattress can greatly affect ours and our children’s health and development. Until recently, many people did not question what went into the mattresses we slept on, let alone think that anything could be in them which could cause harm.
Enlightening research has brought to attention the effects of some of the chemicals present in non organic mattresses. Some of the more dangerous chemicals are slowly being phased out by some companies, however threats still loom from chemicals such as brominated flame retardants also known as PBDE’s. These can build up in breast milk and increase the risk of neurological problems in children. Research has found that they also cause problems with brain development in animals (www.greenpeace.org.uk). American women have been found to have the highest global levels of PBDEs in their breast milk (www.safer-products.org).
Organic pocket sprung mattresses by Abaca are market leaders
After 15 years of working in the mattress industry, Rhiannon Rowley’s concern about the chemicals in the fabrics and materials used to create mattresses, led to the development of Abaca Organic mattresses. This flourishing and dedicated small company produces organic mattresses to Rhiannon’s design with purity and integrity in every stitch of material used, the result is- the finest organic mattresses on the market today.
These pocket sprung organic mattresses are created using the purest organic welsh wool and organic fabrics. Unlike other mattresses which use synthetic fabrics, Abaca pocket sprung organic mattresses are made of natural materials without the need for chemicals. No pesticides are used in the production of the cotton materials used, unlike that used by other pocket sprung mattress companies.
By creating a supply chain dedicated to organic principles, Rhiannon at Abaca Organic mattresses has ensured that the stringent requirements of the Soil Association have been addressed at each stage of wool manufacture from the farm to the grader and from the grader to the ‘scourer’, all have been thoroughly inspected.
Fire safe pocket sprung organic mattresses without Chemicals by Abaca
All mattresses need to meet UK fire regulation laws before they can be sold. Pocket sprung organic mattresses by Abaca meet all the fire safety regulations of the UK and have an approved BS 7177 standard to prove it. They successfully meet this regulation because of the high quantity of wool used within the mattress. Not only is wool breathable and insulating, cool in the summer and warm in the winter, but it is also naturally fire resistant thereby dispensing of the need to pump the entire mattress full of fire retardant chemicals.
