The Making of an Organic Mattress
from Ecobaby / Pure Rest
This shows the clipping of the
mattress springs on the left.  At
right the fiber to hold the metal
strips in place are added. Note that
the fiber contains no chlorine, no
formaldehyde.  Also note how
close the metal is together. This is
one indicator of what Ecobaby
does to keep the mattress
supportive. If you spread them out
more, your mattress may sag
before the end of the warranty.
At the left is an edge support.
These are sturdy metal which gives
complete support all around the
edge of the mattress. At the right is
a layer of organic cotton batting
which is placed on first and
secured to the edges to provide
cushioning from the springs.
Notice how much padding from
organic cotton and Pure Grow Wool
is added to each side. Here one
side is shown. Two heavily thick
carded batts of organic cotton and
one of the wool. This was placed
on top of the already thick layer of
organic cotton shown to above right.
The picture at left shows the cotton
batt on one side has been covered
with a layer of organic cotton fabric
and clipped to the spring unit. At
right shows the thick layers of
cotton batt that is then put on top of
that fabric and batt. Notice the
organic cotton tape edge has been
added for an attractive edge.
At the left the last layer of Pure
Grow Wool has been added. This
is then carefully stuffed with some
extra batting into the corners to
provide a smooth corner.
The sides are also pushed in to
the organic fabric. The mattress at
right is the standard innerspring
which has the quilted edge fabric
that has been quilted with wool for
extra moisture control. Notice the
top quilted layer of another cotton
batt and another wool batt is
placed on top of all these layers for
a nice even surface.
