You can never have too many mattress pads, so keep several in your linen closet! Why Organic? Organic practices have a lower carbon footprint consuming less fuel and energy and emitting fewer greenhouse gases. They are grown with natural rather than synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, harsh dyes or bleaches. Children with allergies and chemical sensitivity especially benefit from organic products, as conventional ones may retain harmful toxic residues. Even if you don't have sensitive skin, organic products will just feel better against your baby's delicate skin. Certified OE 100 Standard- The OE 100 Standard applies to products that contain 100% organic cotton including any sewing thread. The OE 100 requires that all of the cotton is grown organically and provides criteria for proper handling and tracking of the organic cotton through all the steps of textile processing. Safety "Stay On" Corners- Crib safety has attained a lot of importance due to reports of sudden infant deaths (SIDS) due to suffocation caused by soft pillows, loose blankets, mattress pads and crib sheets. They tend to dislodge with the slightest movement and the baby can cover his head with it and risk suffocation. For baby's safety, our patented safety "stay-on" corners absolutely guarantee that the sheet cannot slip off or be easily lifted off at the corners. This unique feature prevents the pad or sheet from coming loose at the corners and entangling your baby in the loosened fabric.
