Babies are widely exposed to chemical pollutants that may be found in the materials used for the construction of the organic crib mattress. Since babies spend almost 16 hours on his crib, he would be breathing in the many preservatives and chemicals that are found in his mattress, primarily. Substances like formaldehyde which is commonly used as a sealant of these materials or PBDE which is a flame retardant that is commonly linked to SIDS or sudden infant death syndrome and most common cases of cancer are found in large quantities in many of the sold crib mattresses. An organic crib mattress on the other hand contains only organic cotton, organically grown wool, or natural rubber. The sealant used to put all the materials together is tree-based oil. This assures you as parent that your baby is breathing in healthy air and is not exposed to harmful substances.
