Behind every My Green Mattress is a hands-on process rooted in craftsmanship, care, and a commitment to safer sleep. Unlike mass-produced mattresses shipped from overseas, ours are made start to finish in our own family-owned factory just outside Chicago. Here’s a closer look at how your organic mattress comes to life—from raw materials to your bedroom.
Step 1: Sourcing Certified Organic Materials
It all starts with ingredients you can trust. We use:
- GOTS-certified organic cotton for a breathable, soft sleep surface
- GOTS-certified organic wool for natural flame resistance and temperature regulation
- GOLS-certified organic latex for responsive, pressure-relieving support
These materials meet strict global standards for organic farming and production, meaning they’re not only better for your family—they’re better for the planet, too.
Step 2: Handcrafting in Our Factory
Once the materials arrive at our Illinois facility, the real work begins. Our skilled craftspeople cut, layer, and stitch each mattress by hand with precision and care. We even manufacture our pocketed coil innersprings with the highest coil count for close contouring and up to 7 zones for an enhanced seating edge and lumbar support.
Because we own and operate our own factory, we have full control over the production process. That means no shortcuts, no synthetic foams, and no outsourcing—just quality you can feel.
Step 3: Constructing with Comfort and Support in Mind
Each mattress is carefully constructed to provide the perfect balance of comfort and support. We use:
- Pocketed coils for targeted support and motion isolation
- Organic latex layers for contouring without sinking
- Organic wool batting as a flame barrier—no chemical flame retardants needed
Whether you choose the Natural Escape, Kiwi, or Pure Eco Organic Mattress, every detail is built for long-term durability and better sleep.
Step 4: Quality Checks and Final Touches
Before your mattress ever leaves our factory, it goes through a thorough quality control process. From stitching to structure to sizing and comfort, we inspect every component to make sure it meets our high standards—and yours.
Each mattress is then rolled, compressed, and boxed for easier shipping, all without compromising its integrity or comfort.
Step 5: Delivered to Your Door
Because we sell directly to you, your mattress ships straight from our factory to your home—no middlemen, no retail markups. That means you get better quality at a better price, and your mattress arrives fresh from the factory floor.
