GREENGUARD Certified products aid in the creation of healthier indoor
environments, and release fewer pollutants that can contribute to health
issues including asthma and other respiratory issues.
UL Environment’s GREENGUARD Certification Program requires that products
meet some of the world's most rigorous standards for low emissions of
volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into indoor environments. This
certification - while not an industry standard - was important to
achieve for the T&N brand and places it in an elite group of companies
that have earned the same mark.
“Tuft & Needle has always been focused on offering safe, sustainable
products, and we believe in full transparency,” said T&N Founder JT
Marino. “We want our customers to not only sleep comfortably, but also
with peace of mind that the place they rest their head at night is free
of harmful chemicals. So we saw a need to ensure our customers of this,
with a third-party verification of our products as low-emitting and safe
for their homes.”
The complete T&N mattress product - from the T&N Adaptive® Foam layer to
the base support layer to the outer cover - was tested for formaldehyde
and over 300 other VOCs with health-based limits, using environmental
chamber testing. Its GREENGUARD label validates that the mattress is
low-emitting and supports healthy indoor environments.
“By earning the GREENGUARD Certification, Tuft & Needle has demonstrated
their dedication to supporting healthier indoor environments; a
critically important effort, as we spend upwards of 90 percent of our
time indoors,” said Alberto Uggetti, vice president and general manager
of UL Environment. “The GREENGUARD Gold mark indicates the brand’s
commitment to producing a trustworthy product that allows everyone to
rest easy.”
