What makes Keetsa so Eco-Friendly?
Keetsa is committed to presenting a line of sleep products that has a minimum impact on your pocketbook and on the environment. Keetsa innovates many changes resulting in a more eco-friendly product line and process. Keetsa continues to seek out innovations to create sleep products that you and your family can purchase with confidence. Here are Keetsa's current eco-friendly innovations:
Organic Cotton Mattress Cover
Keetsa uses unbleached cotton fabrics, bamboo blend fabrics and organic cotton fabrics. Most cotton fabric are bleached or dyed to achieve a more pleasing appearance. But the bleaching process exposes the materials to chemicals. By using unbleached and uncolored cotton fabric, Keetsa is lessening your exposure to chemicals used in the bleaching process. Keetsa bamboo blend fabric uses 30% bamboo, a sustainable material, and 70% polyester. While being natural and sustainable, bamboo is unfortunately not durable enough by itself, so Keetsa has to blend it with polyester to create a cover that is less dependent on the oil industry and will still be durable enough to carry the Keetsa name. Keetsa organic cotton covers are made with certified organic cotton and are available on The Keetsa and latex line.
The Mattress Fire Barrier
Federal Regulations requires all mattresses to comply with the new standard of fire compliance,16CFR1633. For The Keetsa Latex mattress, Keetsa uses all natural 100% wool padding for Keetsa fire barrier. For other mattresses with memory foam layers, Keetsa uses a fire barrier that is made with cotton fabric treated with non-toxic FR agent.
Inside the Mattress
1. Bio-Foam™ *
Memory foam is renowned for its durability and comfort. Yet, most memory foam is made with 100% petroleum oil. Not very eco friendly. Keetsa has innovated Bio-foam™, a new type of memory foam that replaces 12% of the petroleum oil with castor bean oil, natural plant oil. This accounts for less dependency on the oil industry and most importantly, this foam has no detected VOC's and no detected formaldehyde. Much more eco-friendly. Click here to see Keetsa VOC report.
2. Latex Foam *
Keetsa Latex mattresses feature a latex core that uses all natural latex rubber. Latex is naturally hypo-allergenic, anti-bacterial, mildew and mold resistant. Keetsa latex is LGA certified, QUL certified and ECO certified.
3. EverGreen™
Green Tea is increasingly recognized for its calming effect and for its powerful anti-oxidant. Keetsa utilizes this powerful anti-oxidant in the form of Green Tea Extract mixed into the Bio-Foam formula to help ensure that Keetsa sleep products will maintain a fresh, natural scent without the use of chemical deodorizers.
Keetsa Packaging:
Because Keetsa mattresses are so durable and well designed, Keetsa is able to compress them in a box, which accounts for reduced shipping costs, leaving a smaller carbon footprint and no delivery trucks.
Keep in mind… Not just any mattress can be compressed!
Keetsa uses a Patent-Pending process that allows all of Keetsa mattresses to come in a highly efficient package. Keetsa tested many of the major competitive brands and they cannot stand up to this new technology. Only high quality components can be compressed and come back to their original shape. Keetsa has perfected this efficient process for all Keetsa mattresses and sleep products. Smaller packaging means a lower carbon footprint from the store to your house. All Keetsa products are packaged into 100% recyclable boxes printed with water-soluble ink. In addition, the plastic bags used for the mattresses are bio-degradable.
*Please Note: When the sealed bag is opened, the mattress will rise up quickly. Upon opening, the mattress will recover 80-90% of its complete form and the rest will take about 1-3 days to rise up completely. However, you can still use the mattress right away. You will also notice some wrinkles and round corners, which will go away after few days.
