Does anyone know if this topper out-gasses and whether it's made of eco friendly materials?

It's my understanding that it is eco-friendly. We've had this topper for several months and it's better than any we have purchased previously. We love it. Have two 4", three 2" (which are worthless) and one 3". None of them can compete with this one we bought from Amazon. Hope this helps.

I returned this item so I don't know what it was made out of exactly. I don't recall an exact list coming with it anyway, though I could be wrong about that. But, I can tell you, that it had a particularly strong chemical odor that did not go away for the week we did have it. It also tore just from positioning it around on the bed.

Our mattress topper had a mild odor that dissipated within a couple days. The info that came with the topper directs inquiries io info@sleepjoy.com or 1-888-679-5790

Good Questions. No information at all was provided with the product--not even a brand name. I t came shrink-wrapped, folded lengthwise, and coiled into a roll. Cutting open the shrink wrap released the strong caustic, creosote-like odor which prompted me to think "anything this noxious could very well be carinogenic." When there's not much to go on, in terms of information shipped with the purchase, I let paranoia take charge. Good Luck.

It should also be noted that 100% natural talalay foam does not really exist. Foam produced using the talalay process contains materials other than latex. While "100% natural talalay foam" is offered by many retailers, this label is a bit misleading. The "100% natural" refers only to the latex content of the foam and ignores the fact that the foam contains materials other than latex. If the product description in accurate then this would be a latex topper manufactured in the Dunlop process and would be more eco friendly with no "off-gassing"

My pop has been sleeping on this topper for about 6 weeks and he has not complained of getting too hot. It is designed not to get too hot and is a great topper. Takes about 2 days airing out flat to lose the new smell. I think it would be an inexpensive fix for u and worth a try. My Dad is using this on a twin adjustable foam hospital bed and it works great.

I didn't buy it to be environmentally friendly. I bought it because it folds away easily and fits small children.

I would be highly surprised and disappointed if it was treated, as I purchased the topper under the impression that it wasn't. Also, the tag doesn't specify that it is flame-retardant or compliant with the law in that regard, and in fact advises against dry cleaning, and I directly quote, "because of the harsh and toxic chemicals used during the process". That said, I LOVE this topper. I can't recommend it highly enough. It's construction and quality is superb, and has made all the difference in the world comfort- and temperature-wise on our mattress. Before purchasing this topper, my fianc and I were overheating and miserable on our supposedly nontoxic foam mattress. I got the topper to hold us over until we can afford a latex mattress instead, but will definitely continue to use this organic topper even when we do. Hope this helps!

It is made of plastic but I am not sure if it's recycled. Also, I am not sure if it is food grade because I am just using it for a houseplant. Sorry I could not be of more assistance.

there is some non organic materials in it. that is one of the only ways to make it a water proof cover. I have two of these covers. the outer/top layer is very think organic fabric. the inner, the part that comes incontact with the mattress is the non organic part. Overall I would recommend this product.

Hi, craftylady! I believe it is manufactured wood. There are little plastic pieces that secure the top but they are quite secure. Like all the cat items from this company it is well thought out and well made. The little pillow on top is well-made and washable, retaining it's color and fluffiness. I JUST washed one because sumbuddee threw up on it--kitties! I love it! So do the kitties!

No the cover is not plastic. It is a polyester knit fabric cover that features an air-permeable backing that serves as a moisture barrierwhich offers moisture control preventing fluids from penetrating the surface of the mattress topper.

No the topper is sold by itself, the topper could use more stuffing, have to shake to fluff back up not very comfy enough..

From the instruction insert:These disposable Table Topper placemats, and the zip-close bag containing them, are made with a revolutionary new additive that enables them to fully bio-degrade in as little as 9 months to 5 years!" and that "the plastic simply degrades into an inert "humus" that is actually beneficial to the environment and conductive to plant growthSo I would take that as a yes :)

According to the "do not remove under penalty of law" label: the outer cover is made of 75% polyester and 25% rayon from bamboo. Hope this helps. FWIW, this has been a great pillow for me.

I am not sure what you mean by an eco friendly diaper. Cloth diapers are about as eco friendly as you can get. These inserts fit my Green Bees, Bummis, Fuzibunz, and kawaii. I use them primarily with my green bees diapers that I purchased used. The shells were good but they needed inserts. These work very well.

Don't know, sorry! It doesn't seem as plasticky as a lot of kids sleep stuff though - feels very natural and kind of heavy. There are no flame warnings on the labels, so I'd say the material is okay for me.

I would like more information about the material it is made from also. people who use these bags and the producer are probably interested in health, so I'm sure they've researched what is a very safe material? Hopefully. It would be nice to share that information.
