Today Show and Matt Lauer on the Eco Mattress

Several years ago The Today Show had an interview about healthy mattresses. We were pleasantly surprised to see Matt talking about a chemical free mattress made with a cotton and wool naturally fire-resistant cover surrounding natural latex.

In business for 50 Years, offering peronaized mattresses via the web since 1995.

Back then we were the first… but today we continue to strive to make the healthiest and most comfortable mattress in the world. Our cotton and wool are organic. We use only natural Talalay latex cores. We still offer each of you your personalized firmness: Soft, Medium, Firm, Extra Firm or SuperFirm. We have added the vZone: zones (head, shoulder, lumbar, hip, knees and feet) that can be changed to fit your body. This ability to adjust the layers of firmness deep in the FloBed along with our unique vZone results in the most popular latex mattress in America. All Natural. Good for you… Good for the whole world.

Spring (good)… Springs (not so good)

A Wire Coiled…

Not the same as pure natural Talalay Latex.

It rained again today. What a blessing.
We have had 3 years of very dry weather. The thought of mandatory water rationing is not pleasant, but was on the horizon before these last two storms.
I hope the rain continues.

Curious Lambs — Spring Lambs are curious!

The sheep need it too!
Spring lambs are frolicking. They will be making future FloBeds wool and live to an old age. Are sheep-years like dog-years? One thing is certain: our customers don’t count sheep!
Maybe you should consider a natural latex mattress made with 100% pure milk of the rubber tree foam rubber cores surrounded by organic cotton and organic wool (the wool is our way of making a fire-safe mattress that meets US Open Flame Mattress Standards). No more counting sheep… just enjoy the great qualities of latex and wool in a chemical free bed of your dreams!

FloBeds Passes Open Flame test, Naturally

Posted in Natural & Organic by Dave Turner on July 1, 2012 @ 11:39 am

Standard for the Flammability of Mattress Sets (Open Flame Test)

Consumer Product Safety Commission – 16 CFR Part 1633:

Once again… FloBeds is out in front, leading an industry to comfort and safety… naturally!

The Federal Standard came into force July of 2007. The new standard required mattresses and foundations to be able to withstand an open flame for 50 seconds on the side and 70 seconds on the top without igniting. Most companies use FR chemicals or other artificial components to pass this test… FloBeds is proud to use only wool to make our mattresses meet this standard.

Federal Fire Standards require mattress to withstand open flame.

A conventional mattress is in flames in just a few minutes compared to a mattress that complies with the federal open-flame standard, on the right.

FloBeds passed the test using Wool as a fire barrier!
