Every Aussie Parent Should Read Before Buying Baby Products – CONSUMER AWARENESS GUIDE

For a restful nights sleep FREE from potentially dangerous ⚹Chemicals, avoid placing babies tiny body on or near any conventional baby bedding that has fire retardants, water-proofing, harmful glues or dyes. Some are sold as ‘Non-iron’, ‘Easy care’, ‘Wrinkle free‘, ‘Permanent press’, ‘Ultra Fresh’, ‘Waterproof’ and ‘Flame proof’. They might sound good, but these all require chemical additives to give them these properties that don't occur naturally. If you sleep them on products made from 100% GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) Certified Organic Cotton fabric and filling instead, you can be at peace knowing for sure, they are NOT breathing in any toxic fumes.

Information About Baby Bedding In Australia

Did you know that frequently present in conventional baby cot mattresses and bedding are ⚹High Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) like phosphorus, arsenic and antimony and nerve toxins like formaldehyde, benzene and toluene? Whether they be in the petroleum based, Polyethylene foam, the petroleum and chlorine based Vinyl or PVC used for waterproofing (a known carcinogen, let alone, one of the most environmentally unfriendly plastics used today), or the petroleum based Fire Retardants --- separately or together --- they make up a toxic soup that is linked to immune suppression, hormone disruption, developmental delays, learning and memory problems, behavior changes and cancer.

When your baby can sleep for up to 18 hours a day, do you really want them inhaling these chemicals? These chemicals off gas and also heat up during sleep, therefore intensifying the toxic effects.

 

PLEASE NOTE:
Latex products are NOT organic or 100% natural.

Some people go nuts about BAMBOO SHEETS too because they're told that they are natural and anti-bacterial. But bamboo fibres must be converted with chemicals to produce the yarn. This makes the process man-made and therefore synthetic, not all natural and certainly not certified organic.

Australian Furniture Is Healthier – CONSUMER AWARENESS GUIDE 

 

How To Give Your Baby A Healthier Start To Life

Our aim is to help raise happy, healthy babies and toddlers by relieving them of some of the thousands of chemicals in every day use. We recommend you start by providing them with a sound and healthy sleep on an Organic Cotton Mattress topped with an Organic Mattress Overlay and an Organic Mattress Protector to provide the best Water-Resistance possible using purely Certified Organic fabrics. No need to overwhelm their tiny systems with the toxins that can leech out of plasticised waterproofing. Cover your baby with fresh Organic Cotton Sheets, Quilt and Quilt Cover or a soft Organic Fleece Blanket. Protect yourself, your baby and all your family from Formaldehyde and other toxic chemicals found in most conventional bedding products, by choosing natural, eco-friendly, certified organic cotton instead.

Why It’s So Important To Buy Australian Made

Did you know that most conventional wooden furniture is made using toxic glues and finishes? Imported timber must be fumigated before it can enter the country. Almost all cots and cradles sold in Australia are imported, the majority are made in China. One cot we researched is made in Australia from imported timber, these timbers ARE fumigated. Some suppliers of cots are claiming made with ‘Australian Timber’, this may be true but they send the timber to China to produce the furniture more economically! What happens when it’s returned back to Australia? Australian quarantine regulations requires fumigation of timber and timber products. Fumigation chemicals are harmful to health, and a possible cause of SIDS. Some cots and cradles are also made here with MDF, full of formaldehyde, another cause of SIDS? Glued and finished with petro chemical paint and stain, another cause of SIDS? — It’s not worth the chance.

Because of the lack of healthy and wholesome baby nursery products actually made here in Australia, family owned businesses like Organature® found it essential to produce their own furniture from Australian Hardwood Timber, handcrafted specially from local Victorian Mountain Ash.

There are 100% Organic Australian-Made Cots, Cradles, Trundles, Beds and Bunks here.

What Other People Have To Say

Kerry | 3 reviews |9/10/2015 | Words cannot express the peace of mind this mattress will give you. It is worth every $$$ that you spend. Did you notice how much babies love to sleep on their tummies with their face on the side and nose/mouth just above the mattress. Think about what they are breathing in. You have this mattress which is pure organic cotton bliss, then you have the average mattress with horrible synthetic materials and the chemicals they are treated with (which we often just don’t know about as of course they don’t advertise that bit). Couple that with a tiny little babies respiratory system and body. Do your research, minimise the risks wherever you can. I did my research and the safety and quality that Organature provides is exactly what I was looking for. I love my organic mattress!!!

Kelly Douglas | 5 reviews | 23/12/2018 | Love your products!! I have a baby sleeping soundly in the next room on a cradle mattress by Organature . Her cradle is next to the Victorian Ash king size bed you guys made us and the next room along hosts a cot by Organature as well.

Dianne | 2 reviews | 20/08/2013 | We are really pleased with this mattress. We also purchased the cot and being a first time Mum, I was worried how he would go transitioning from the small cradle to the cot but he slept, well, like a baby!! Mum, Dad and baby boy all very pleased! I highly recommend the innerspring mattress and the cot. I love that my little man has a 100% organic bed. I smile every time I walk past it.

Alex and Ryan Broadhurst1 reviews | 19/09/2018 | After looking around the big baby stores for good quality and safe baby furniture, without success, we were so grateful to discover your website. Your assistance from the first call was amazing and after we placed the order the whole process was perfectly handled. The items arrived at the promised times and in perfect condition, the assembly of all of the furniture was also extremely quick and simple. Everyone who visits our home comments on the quality and appearance of the furniture. Thank you so much for all of your help and assistance, we can’t thank you enough and we are constantly recommending you to our expectant friends.

Lisa Gomes5 reviews |14/02/2017 | Nothing else compares to the quality of the cotton. After years of wasting so much money on sub-standard products filled with toxic chemicals, you have no idea how happy I am to know there is a place I can order everything I need and know that I will be happy with the quality.

Luciana | 1 reviews | 01/04/2013 | I LOVE LOVE LOVE this mattress! Worth every cent & definitely value for money. Highly recommend to anyone. The service was also lovely. Thanks.

Nicole Groch5 reviews |22/01/2019 | I research and write about toxic free living for my site livingsafe.com.au and so completely trust Organature as a company and all it stands for. Our entire family sleep on their inner-spring mattresses as well as use only Organature bedding. The mattresses are incredibly supportive and firm, yet very comfortable. The quilts, pillows, blankets and sheets are super soft and feel fresh and pure. The peace of mind of knowing your children are sleeping toxic free and are not inhaling VOC’s from fire retardants, petrochemicals, pesticides and fungicides is wonderful. I would highly recommend Organature to everyone!

Chelsea1 reviews | 26/03/2014 | The pillows are a life saver, after becoming allergic to my cheap nasty polyester pillows I had to throw them out and had been sleeping on a rolled up cotton towel. After punching in 100% cotton pillows into google I came across Organature and found that they had exactly what I wanted, cotton fill inside and cotton cover outside, chemical and fragrance free and organic to boot, what a bonus. I received my new pillows the very next morning after purchasing online. I bought a standard half fill for myself as I like to lay pretty flat and curl the very edge of the pillow up into the nape of my neck and a standard pillow for my boyfriend. We couldn't be happier with the pillows they are very comfortable and best of all no smells or nasty chemicals to make me sick.

Claire Bishop5 reviews | 3/08/2016 | Thanks so much for all the effort you invested in ensuring I received a cot that was safe and secure for Hugo. The new cot and mattress are beautiful and I appreciate them even more now that I know what a lovely team of people are behind the Organature business.

Sylvia Ura5 reviews |15/12/2017 | I purchased a gorgeous mattress and linen for my then unborn baby earlier this year. Well – baby “Zara” is now just over three months and absolutely loves sleeping on the mattress and sheets. I have been recommending your products to other mums-to-be.

Pam1 reviews | 28/10/2018 | I suffer from dust mite allergies and multiple chemical sensitivities. I bought these products as they were allergy free & chemical free. The best decision I ever made. The service was excellent & the product unbelievable. When we changed our bed to the king size one, I purchased again. You will not be disappointed!

Lyn Pascoe1 review | 21/06/2018 | We bought a mattress, an underlay, an overlay, a quilt, some pillows and pillow covers. Loving the feeling of organic cotton! My kids love their new pillows! Very helpful service. I highly recommend this retailer. - via Facebook.
