Simmons Gives Us A Bed of Tree Sap and Soy

We can now sleep easy and green because Simmons has partnered with Danny Seo to develop a Natural Care® line of mattresses.

“We conducted a significant amount of research on sustainable and renewable foams and fabrics when designing the Natural Care® line and took special care to select materials that would promote the best possible sleep experience for the consumer, while providing the added benefit of being environmentally friendly,” said Tim Oakhill, Simmons’ executive vice president of marketing.

Available at JCPenny this month, the mattresses are covered with a natural latex that is derived from biodegradable materials like rubber tree sap.  The base foam of the mattress is made with soy, the fabric cover is made from wood fibres, and the metal in the mattress is made from recycled steel.  Simmons and Seo have also put together “The Green Guide to A Healthier Bedroom” to make you green decorating easier.
