We’re very excited to announce that Gardner’s Mattress & More is now displaying OrganicPedic by OMI on our Plaza Boulevard showroom floor!
OrganicPedic mattresses are all-Organic Rubber mattresses and bedding, produced in the nation’s only large scale, 100% Organic Factory. What exactly does that mean? The level of detail that goes into the chemical free nature of these mattresses is amazing.
OMI, the company that produces OrganicPedic, maintains a smoke-free, fragrance-free, and cruelty-free environment. Anyone entering the factory must comply with strict standards- employees don’t smoke, wear perfumes or colognes, or use fabric softeners on their clothing. All mattresses are handmade and produced in Northern California by expertly trained artisans.
These mattresses are truly the purest sleep solution available, and it’s backed by a purity guarantee.
How far does OMI go to produce a “true” organic mattress? Here’s a list of certifications, as listed from OMI’s website:
  |
The Global Organic Latex Standard (GOLS)OMI’s latex mattresses are certified to the Global Organic Latex Standard. Peterson Control Union, a globally recognized organic certifier, developed GOLS based on their years of experience certifying organic products in other industries, including foods and textiles. This certification ensures that all latex materials, finished product, and manufacturing processes adhere to strict and specific global organic standards. view vendor certificate |
|
Certified OrganicControl Union Certifications certifies to the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) – dedicated specifically to fiber and textile handling and production. The aim of the Standard is to define requirements that ensure the organic status of textiles, from harvesting of the raw materials through environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing all the way up to labeling, in order to provide credible organic assurance to the end consumer. view vendor certificate |
 |
GREENGUARD® Tested and CertifiedOMI’s OrganicPedic® mattresses meet the stringent criteria of the GREENGUARD® Environmental Institute (GEI) for low VOC emissions, and are eligible for LEED credits. In 2006, a OMI mattress was the first to be certified by GREENGAUARD® for low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions based on strict purity standards. We even pass GREENGUARD®’s most stringent requirements, theGold Certification Program, for products designed to be used for children and schools. We have continued to do so year after year with test values (BQL) below quantifiable levels. |

American-Grown NOP-Certified Organic CottonOur USDA certified organic cotton batting is the highest-grade premium long-staple virgin cotton you can buy. It has been garnetted to our unique specifications and then sanitized using our exclusive non-chemical ozone process. |
 |
Made in the USAOur organic mattresses are made in our Eco-Factory™, located in Northern California. |
 |
Natural Rubber Latex from Rubber Trees, Not PetroleumCertified by Oeko-Tex to be free of harmful substances, the natural rubber in our mattress cores comes from sustainably harvested rubber-tree sap. |
 |
Flame RetardantOrganicPedic® mattresses meet all federal and state, as well as Canadian, flammability requirements without the use of chemical fire retardants. Our mattresses were tested by the CPSC in May 2008 and again in 2014, and meet all flammability performance criteria under CPSC Statutes 1632 and 1633, as well as all new children’s regulations (16 CFR 1110, lot tracking, LEAD, and phthalates). view our flammability test |

Our Eco-Factory™In our organic-only manufacturing environment, cross-contamination from conventional products is never an issue. We simply have no harmful chemicals or synthetic raw materials on site. Our factory, located in Northern California, is truly unique – we developed the first and only large-scale Eco-Factory™ dedicated to all-organic manufacturing — in North America. Our Eco-Factory™ has its own ozone cleaning chamber that reduces naturally-occurring contaminants such as mold and mildew spores, yeasts, and bacteria that may have “hitchhiked” from the field or storage facility on raw materials. We believe there is no cleaner sewing facility in the mattress industry than our dedicated sewing room. Our Eco-Factory™ also provides a safe and healthful workplace for our employees. |
How Do They Feel?
While that is an impressive list, no matter what your mattress is made of, the most fundamental and important quality of the mattress is comfort and support. You can have the greenest, earthiest mattress ever produced by humans, but if it’s not supportive and comfortable, none of that matters. Stop by our Showroom and find out! OrganicPedic mattresses by OMI are available in a variety of sizes and firmness – from Firm to Super Plush – You’re sure to find the right feel and support!
We also carry a variety of OMI’s pillows (sooooo soft and comfy) and mattress toppers.
