What We Know and What We’re Changing

A mattress is one of the most intimate products you own: you spend a third of your life on it, breathing in whatever it's made of. And it's one of the hardest to dispose of, so what it's made of shapes its impact long after you're done with it.

A note on independence: Sleep for Change was founded by Avocado Green Mattress, and we think you should know that up front. We operate with our own board and editorial mission, and we don't run sponsored content.

We believe a mattress should be good to sleep on and responsible at the end of its life: kept out of the landfill while it's still usable, and made so there's less to throw away when it isn't. That's what we write about here.
