Green Or Organic Memory Foam

Is there such a thing as green or organic memory foam? The short answer is no. There is no green or organic memory foam that you can purchase on the market today.

There is however a new environmentally friendly foam called Biogreen that is better for the earth (but it is still NOT organic and NOT completely green).

The problem you run into mainly when you speak about memory foam being organic or green is that in order for it to be truly visco-elastic and have all the properties that you hear about when you hear about this type of foam, it has to be chemical based. It simply cannot be created to have the same characteristics with soy or organic based material. They can add a small percentage of soy to memory foam (five to ten percent) but that is about it. There is simply no way to make an all natural foam mattress.

If you are worried about toxicity in the foam then that shouldn't bother you.

The foam that is manufactured in the United States has been proven to be non-toxic. It's been on the market for almost 30 years with no record of sickness or illness being related to sleeping on one.

In order to make sure that your mattress is safe (memory foam made overseas has been found to contain formaldehyde and other toxic substances) check and make sure that they manufacture it in the United States. If they don't display that somewhere on the site or on the packaging then do NOT purchase it.
