White Lotus’ Natural Bedding

White Lotus crib/toddler mattresses are made differently than any others on the market.

The company has worked for years developing a product that is both safe and natural for babies and young children.

White Lotus believes that cotton is the greatest sleeping surface any amount of money can buy. It comes right from the earth and provides excellent comfort, with tremendous support. Cotton is also very malleable, and can be fitted to any space. Organic cotton is great stuff, but the price is still quite high, especially on the East Coast (organic cotton is still not grown east of Texas.) A good futon shop will use Green Cotton, which simply means traditionally grown, but no further processing has occurred.

Conventional mattresses (cribs and otherwise) are made with foams and metals and all sorts of additives and synthetic chemicals. Simply put, White Lotus feels that synthetic, impure ingredients such as these can contribute to the occurrence of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) and other health problems for small children. Consumers may wonder why these questionable toxins do not affect adults who sleep on them regularly; quite simply, the immune system in infants and toddlers is immature and sensitive to chemicals in their environment.

Besides pointing out the great advantage of the natural cotton fibers and their lack of exposure to chemicals and harmful off-gassing, White Lotus also points out their sound design elements that add to the safety of their natural children bedding.

White Lotus cribs are overstuffed with layers and layers of high quality natural cotton batting. The crib mattress is then hand-quilted several times in a complex pattern. These two factors combine to provide an extraordinarily firm and flat sleeping surface, which is very important to avoid aspiration.
