Hi Cat, Great question and relevant because there are potentially many! I would NOT mulch ANY part of any non-organic mattress. There are many plastics in the fabrics, likely flame retardants in the fabric surrounding the core, and any fabrics have been treated with pesticides, bleaching agents, etc. Any cotton and wool, unless certified organic, has gone through various chemical processing as well.

Make sure you check if the foam has flame retardants as these are the most toxic and should be avoided Find out what flame barrier is used and make sure it's not toxic Cotton is safe Memory foam never has flame retardants That's it |
