Simmons Introduces Eco-Friendly Mattress Line at JCPenney

 

Simmons and Eco-Friendly Living Expert Danny Seo Offer Tips for Creating a “Green” and Healthy Bedroom

 

Simmons Bedding Company announced in May that its new Natural Care® by Danny Seo line of latex mattresses will be available at select JCPenney stores and online at jcp.com. Simmons partnered with eco-friendly living expert Danny Seo to offer a “green” bedding collection, which features natural, biodegradable and renewable components such as natural rubber tree based latex and a layer of base foam enhanced with soy.


“As interest in sustainable products has grown, so has the need for a ‘green’ mattress that is accessible for the majority of consumers. There is no reason that ‘green’ mattresses should be a niche product when there is huge consumer support for environmentally friendly products,” said Danny Seo. “I hear from my readers and viewers that they want to invest in a ‘green’ mattress, but want to purchase it from a brand name they trust. Thanks to Simmons, sustainable and renewable bedding products are now readily available providing consumers the opportunity to experience a Natural Care® mattress and discover the benefits of a luxurious, eco-friendly sleep environment.”


Natural Care® mattresses feature natural latex made from biodegradable materials like rubber tree sap, which is harvested and refined to create one of the most soothing and responsive sleeping surfaces in the world. The highly resilient and durable nature of latex means that a mattress will retain its shape and performance for many years to come. Natural Care® latex is also inherently resistant to dust mites, mold and mildew. Furthermore, beneath the Natural Care® mattress’ latex layer is a layer of base foam enhanced with soy. The use of soy reduces the amount of petroleum needed to manufacture the foam and results in a smaller carbon footprint.


Natural Care® mattresses also feature a Tencel® fabric cover made from wood fibers. This natural knit fabric is constructed with biodegradable yarn and offers exceptional breathability and comfort. In addition, Simmons’ Triton® foundation is made from with 100 percent sustainable wood typically sourced from companies who participate in the Sustainable Forestry Initiative, and the metal in the foundation’s interior grid includes up to 80 percent recycled steel.


“We conducted a significant amount of research on sustainable and renewable foams and fabrics when designing the Natural Care® line and took special care to select materials that would promote the best possible sleep experience for the consumer, while providing the added benefit of being environmentally friendly,” said Tim Oakhill, Simmons’ executive vice president of marketing. “Today, sustainable living is an option for everyone, and the availability of the Simmons Natural Care® line at JCPenney represents our combined efforts to make an eco-friendly mattress available to consumers at a smart price.”


Priced at $1,599 and up, the collection will bear JCPenney’s “Simply Green” mark, an exclusive-to-JCPenney designation that assists customers in making environmentally conscious purchases.


Tips for a Green and Healthy Bedroom
Because many consumers are interested in ‘greening’ their entire bedroom, not just the mattress, Simmons also worked with Seo on the development of The Green Guide to a Healthier Bedroom to make the eco-friendly decorating process easier.


The Green Guide to a Healthier Bedroom contains Seo’s sustainable design tips for virtually every aspect of the bedroom as well as advice for obtaining healthy, rejuvenating sleep. Consumers may download the guide by visiting the Mattress Buying Guide section of www.naturalcarebed.com.
