The organic style movement has been on the rise over the last few years. Part of the movement is out of concern for the environment and what the chemicals are doing to the planet. Most of the movement is from people who want a healthier lifestyle for themselves and their families.

The organic bedroom trend is motivated by some very recent disturbing discoveries about the petroleum-based foam mattresses most of us sleep on every night. Studies of household dust have confirmed that your mattress is likely one of the most significant sources of cancer-causing chemicals in your home. That’s why organic bedding is increasingly sought after for the modern home, not least because organic bedding is safer and less harmful to you and the environment - but also because natural fibres means natural organic bedding, and also organic mattresses are also very comfortable as well.

Almost any crib mattress available today is loaded with chemicals and toxins (particularly fire retardants) that are linked to SIDS, with the risk increasing with each child that uses the mattress. The solution is either to purchase an organic crib mattress or simply utilize a family bed and skip the crib altogether.

The same goes for the garden outside of the home, such as recycled furnture, not least when made from Polywood. Polywood is composite wood, manufactured by binding together scraps from sawmills to form complete sets of Polywood furniture.

Also, consumers are now choosing far more natural products overall, such as local handicraft goods and products. A particular green favourite is Pacific Rim furniture products, which are handcrafted from maple taken from sustainable forests.
