I am in the process of buying new furniture for my kid's shared bedroom. Finding real wood without a toxic finish is not easy. Also, made in the US.
Â
And I need another matress. My last two purchases were natural wool + cotton or natural wool + natural latex. We are happy with both matresses but I need a cheaper option if I can find one. THe company selling the furniture has less expensive "natural" matresses. It is nice, sometimes when companies are transparent because I was easily able to get MSDS from them and the manufacturer name from them. No way there are using wool or natural latex at these prices so I wanted to know *what* was natural and flammable.
Â
They are using something called Protech http://carpenter.com/index.php/us/en/bedding/protech which is by product of "wood production" and "natural."  I assume it is some sort of cellulouse type thing that can be imbedded to meet the flammability standard.
Â
Can anyone verify that this actually natural and safe as you would define it rather than natural as in asbestos and unsafe?
