Toxic Crib Mattress

[Emily32]

Over the last 30+ years, baby mattress materials have been replaced with cheap petroleum-based synthetics. Recent studies have questioned the use of these materials.

Nearly all baby mattresses today contain polyurethane foam, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), chemical fire retardants, plasticizers, and a laundry list of added industrial chemicals. Some of these chemicals have been shown to leach out into the surrounding air.

The average consumer naturally assumes that what is sold on the market, certainly regarding baby products, is fully safe and non-toxic. However, the average consumer is unaware of the potentially harmful chemicals often included in such products.
