Description

This mattress requires a prescription from a licensed physician for purchase.

Or you can get your futon in our DREAMTON style wrapped in a layer of pure wool, which acts as the natural flame retardant.

With a 2” Evergreen Foam core sandwiched between a Green Cotton core, this futon is everything you wish a natural futon could be, with none of the toxic ingredients.
It comes in all standard and custom sizes.

Evergreen Foam

Most foams are made of petroleum-based products that produce toxic off-gassing and create a lot of environmental pollution.

Our signature Evergreen Foam is made from vegetable, soy, and castor oils, making it more sustainable. Evergreen Foam is:

Flame retardant free
Paraben-free
Formaldehyde-free

What Is Green Cotton?

A more affordable option to our organic cotton products, our Green Cotton is grown in the United States — it just isn’t certified organic. This more affordable material is slightly firmer than organic cotton, but the real beauty is in what it doesn’t have:

NO dyes
NO perfumes
NO flame retardants

Grown by farmers right here in the US, Green Cotton is a fabulous cost-savings material that doesn’t put you in contact with harmful chemicals typically found in conventional cotton.

Some additional info on our Evergreen Foam:

All foam is comprised of oils. These oils, regardless of origin, form the organic compound polyurethane --- it's an umbrella term that describes the chemical compound, not the source. While most conventional oils will use damaging petroleum as their base, our Evergreen Foam will only use soy, castor, and other vegetable oils. To process the liquid oil into a foam product, polyols are added; polyol is sugar-based alcohol derived from castor and vegetable oils that burns off in the manufacturing process. In short, even though foam is a man-made product, all components of our Evergreen Foam are naturally derived from plant-based oils. It's as natural as foam can come!

You can think of the process much like baking a whisky cake: the batter starts out as a liquid, but baking chemically transforms the mixture from liquid to solid, while the alcohol burns off almost entirely.

If a customer is looking for the most natural product possible, we would recommend mattresses and bedding made from raw fibers such as cotton, kapok, and wool: these are unprocessed and close to their natural source. However, we do try to offer foam cores for comfort, budgetary, and sensitivity reasons.

I've attached a letter from the foam manufacturer. You will find page 10 most relevant, as it provides certification that the product is created without fire retardants, formaldehyde, nickle, mercury, parabens, and other hazardous materials.

Foam Density: 35 ILD
Weight Density: 1.8 LBS

Sleeping on Our Green Cotton and Evergreen Foam Futon

The Green Cotton and Evergreen Foam Futon is one without springs, and as such won’t transfer motion between sleepers. We recommend putting it on a box spring set or platform bed, or even using it as a floor bed. A slatted bed frame is recommended for air circulation and the slats should be at least 2.5" wide and no more than 2" apart from each other. When the slats are more than 2" apart, that may affect the longevity and comfort of your mattress. Soft yet supportive, our Green Cotton and Evergreen Foam mattress is unlike any you’ve ever slept on, and we know you’re going to love it.

Please note: This mattress requires a prescription from a licensed physician for purchase. After purchase, please fax, email, or mail a copy of your prescription in a timely manner, so that we can begin handcrafting your mattress.

What is the difference between a White Lotus Home Futon and a White Lotus Home Mattress?
You can watch this video about our Futon Mattresses but the differences between the two are simple:
1. A mattress is made standard at 6" thick, while a futon is 5" thick.
2. A mattress comes with side handles to help maneuver its size, but a futon is made without handles.
3. A mattress has side panels that give it a boxier shape, while a futon has rounded sides. These differences allow us to make futons out of the same high-quality material as mattresses, but for less cost. White Lotus Home mattresses can be made up to 8" inches thick.

All of our mattress options can be made in "Futon" and "Mattress" styles.
