33 years of manufacturing new technology mattresses for customers worldwide

TV stations, Magazines, and Newspapers across the country have done news stories on toxic beds, and more are coming:


NBC Indianapolis, 2-14-08, Sleeping with Danger

A very strong story: Patty Davis, a spokeswoman with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, said the toxic chemicals do not get out of the mattress. But then the reporter showed the CPSC report and said: "But that's not what the CPSC's own scientific report says." The report shows toxic and cancer causing chemicals do leach from mattresses and are absorbed by our bodies. The story interviewed Dale Guyer, MD, who said he is now finding Antimony in peoples bodies, one of the FR chemicals now being added to mattresses. Guyer said. "This could be a potential serious health risk for a lot of people and they aren't even aware of it. "They interviewed Amy Beechy, who got sick from her mattress and said: "I had flu like symptoms like fatigue, headaches, my eyes would burn," Beechy stopped sleeping on the mattress and immediately began to feel better.

"At several factories around the country, the people who make mattresses say they're suffering health problems, too. WTHR talked to workers at a large mattress plant [Not Simmons] who say they and dozens of their co-workers have gotten sick in the past eight months. "We've seen rashes and skin irritations, headaches, sore throats..." said one of the workers. "I've had nose bleeds, bronchitis, and coughing," said another. "It's happening to lots of us and it's just been getting worse." They say all the health problems began last year when they started making mattresses that pass the government's new flame test. When asked if they would purchase and sleep on a mattress made at their factory, the workers said they would not."

Like most stories they also interviewed Mark Strobel who has led the fight against the regulation, and they concluded by telling people the only way to get a chemical free mattress is by prescription.

A great story we hope you will watch: http://www.wthr.com/Global/story.asp?S=7873623

CBS Chicago, 9-24-07

"What Might Be In Your Mattress? Could Mattress Safety Measures Make You Sick?

The story interviewed Dr. Doris Rapp, MD, who says unsafe, several Simmons mattress factory employees who are getting sick just from handling the new flame retardant materials, Serta who admits using Boric Acid, and Mark Strobel who has campaigned and generated news against the new flameproof mattress regulation for four years.

The CBS story quotes several Simmons mattress factory employees complaining of "Breathing Problems, Sharp Chest Pains, Sinus Problems, Irritated Eyes, Chronic Sore Throats, Bloody Noses, and Painful Skin Rashes." In one scene a Simmons executive says they offer employees protection as the reporter picks up a dust mask/respirator.

CBS New York, 12-20-07
"New Fire Retardant Mattresses Source Of Toxins"
The story interviews Joan Kramer who with her husband became sick from their new mattress, Emily Main of The Green Guide, and Simmons mattress factory employees who also became sick from the FR materials. It is a good story exposing the risks except they reported organic mattresses pass the open flame test with wool. Wool actually burns and will not pass the test. See (Wool Burns)

CBS Boston,  11-8-07
"Chemicals Prompt Concern About Mattress Standard",
CPSC says Children absorb 63 times more Poison from flameproof mattresses than the EPA says is safe.

The Boston news story interviewed Liz Harriman, of the Toxic Use Reduction Institute at University of Massachusetts Lowell, Cindy Luppi, of the Alliance for a Healthy Tomorrow, and concluded with a Mother named Gwendolyn Atwood. All are concerned about the toxic chemicals now being added to mattresses

CBS Boston also interviewed Ron Trainer of ISPA (the mattress manufactures association) who admitted manufacturers do use Antimony, but then he misstated the facts by saying Antimony could not get out of mattresses, and that testing proved it did not get out. In fact, the government proved Antimony and more does leach to the surface of mattresses in large quantities.

Please look at the CPSC risk assessment justifying the regulation, and you will see:

The CPSC proved these chemicals leach to the surface of mattresses and measured significant amounts of toxins contacting our bodies.

The CPSC says five year old children will absorb .5 mg Antimony (Arsenic) from flameproof mattresses, every night. This is 63 times more Poison than the EPA say is safe! They also say the average adult will absorb .8 mg Antimony every night, and this is 27 times more poison than the EPA says is safe. Antimony is one of the acutely toxic heavy metals (lead, mercury, arsenic, antimony) and is also known to cause cancer.

CBS Philadelphia, "Sick Mattresses", 10-11-07
The story was similar to the CBS Chicago story as mattress factory employees complained of "Irritated Eyes, Chronic Sore Throats, Bloody Noses, and Painful Skin Rashes."

ABC Cincinnati, "Sleeping With Danger" 5-5-08
Another strong story: "It sometimes is the only thing that will eradicate roaches from a building," explains retired Cincinnati Fire Chief Bill Kramer, now University of Cincinnati fire science professor. "It would not be something I would use as a first choice to create a flame retardant for a mattress." He fears the flame-retardant chemicals in new mattresses could do more harm than good. "In their zeal to protect us from ourselves, some of these government agencies can go too far," Kramer said. "Sometimes, the cure they come up with is worse than the malady it's designed to correct." In truth, no one knows the long term effects of sleeping every night a fraction of an inch from boric acid, antimony and other toxic flame retardants, and that unknown is what worries fire science professor Bill Kramer. "I was a Marine Corps officer during the Vietnam era," Kramer said. "And it took us many decades to realize the effects of Agent Orange. I would certainly not like to see something like that transpire here."

"It's proven you're going to absorb a daily dose that's twenty-seven times the EPA says is safe," Strobel said. The only way to get a new mattress without any flame retardant is by prescription. If your doctor or chiropractor prescribes a chemical-free mattress, people like Strobel can make one for you.

NBC Kansas City, "Sleeping With Danger," 4-24-08
"I did have a new mattress for a while and I did have a pretty bad reaction to it," Kansas City native Richard Thompson said. ... "The research picture is still unclear," Children's Mercy Hospital environmental health hygienist Kevin Kennedy said. Right now, no federal law requires the maker of any mattress to list flame-retardant chemicals on a mattress label, but some experts say people need to know these chemicals exist in case they notice health trouble. "The more we can help them reduce that complex mix of things they're exposed to…the more healthy and more normal a life they can lead," Kennedy said. "This is close, chronic exposure, and it becomes a huge risk," Strobel said.

Chicago Tribune, Chicago IL, July 1 2007, got admissions from industry and top manufacturers that they really are using toxic chemicals to flameproof mattresses including, Antimony Trioxide (Arsenic), Boric Acid (Roach Killer), Silica Glass, and Ammonium Polyphosphate (Ammonia). Plus she quoted several top scientists and doctors who say this is unsafe. Karen also told people there is an alternative in prescription mattresses that are toxin free and allowed by the regulation.

CBS Indianapolis, 2-14-08, Sleep Concerns - A Special Report

This story interviews yet another person sick from their mattress, Cheryl Anderson, who said two different mattresses make her sick with fever and skin rashes. The story discusses Antimony, a probable carcinogen, being added to mattresses and that toxic chemicals are required to pass the new open flame test. Plus they told people the only way to get a chemical free mattress is with a Doctor's prescription. It concludes by telling people children under age five were not studied by the CPSC, as they assumed all these children would sleep on vinyl sheets, and that this would protect them from the toxic chemicals in their mattresses.

The new rules, he argued, would lead companies to lace bedding with toxic fire-retardant chemicals such as boric acid and antimony.

 "Is Your Mattress Killing You Softly? Chemical in Mattresses Could Be Toxic"

[Industry has previously admitted they use chemicals including Boric Acid to the Washington Post and others. Kevlar is used in the yellow thread you see on the perimeter of the mattress to hold it together, but this is not the flameproofing system. The CPSC report table 1 proves the cotton batting flameproofing system contains 7.5% Boric Acid and 2.4% Antimony. With no labeling requirements, it is typical for mattress makers to deny using chemicals!]

Washington Post reports risks of toxic chemicals in flameproof mattresses

Fire-Resistant Mattresses Ignite Fear of Chemicals

Tuesday, May 17, 2005; E01 (Front Page of Business Section)


"This is no sleeper issue. ... The issue is an important one because almost everyone sleeps on a mattress. And it's big business, with about 25 million new mattresses sold annually, most made by U.S. companies."

Mattress Chemical Article:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/05/16/AR2005051601524.html?sub=AR

Mattress Chemical Article, printer friendly version:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/05/16/AR2005051601524_pf.html
 

The Washington Post story was picked up by many newspapers across the country, and the issue is being featured by major market TV affiliates of CBS, FOX, and ABC.

A new law already effective in California and being enacted nationwide by Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) requires mattresses to resist ignition from open flames.

While the CPSC and Industry public statements say these chemical systems are safe, the written word of the CPSC in their draft law says otherwise. They admit these systems have never been studied, are ‘acutely toxic’, a ‘reproductive and developmental toxin’, and more study is needed. They do say they are getting exposure data and studying them now, but we fear study will not be complete before this law is enacted and that they are trying to justify a preexisting conclusion.

With the safety verdict still out, all new mattresses sold in California, and millions nationwide contain toxic chemical flame proofing systems. At least one major brand has fire proofing systems on all their new mattresses nationwide.

Manufacturers, and consumers with no labeling information, must choose from one of four basic chemical systems under the ticking to meet law: 1) Boric Acid with Antimony. 2) Polyester with Antimony. 3) Fiberglass with Antimony. 4) Melamine with Formaldehyde. All four systems contain chemicals linked to cancer. Antimony causes heart muscle damage, and can cause the heart to beat irregularly or stop, and a single dermal application has killed rabbits. Europe has proven Antimony leaches from mattresses and it has been found in livers of dissected human infants.

Quoting the Washington Post: “Serta, the second-largest U.S. manufacturer, has been using a fire-blocking system on all its products since January [2005] that uses a blend of natural and synthetic fibers as well as chemicals. …"There is an infinitesimal level of boric acid available on the surface of mattresses," he [Serta] said.” We strongly disagree with the amount and safety of Boric Acid in mattresses. Our government says Boric Acid leaches from mattresses. There can be over one million milligrams of water soluble Boric Acid as loose dust in the surface of a mattress. As the oils in the cotton batting dry out over time much more Boric Acid will be released to kick up into our faces to breathe and absorb by our bodies. Boric Acid is poison, is used as Roach Killer, and the CPSC calls it ‘acutely toxic.’ There are 6,463 cases of Boric Acid poisoning in the US each year. We have found at least one case where an 11-year old child with chronic skin rash appears to be poisoned by boric acid in a mattress. In addition to Inhalation, skin, and damaged skin absorption, it appears children could be poisoned by sucking on a mattress.

The CPSC notified California their law is invalid and unenforceable since there is an existing federal flammability law (cigarette ignition). California chooses to enforce it anyway. A lawsuit on a single point of law could stop California, federal law preempts state law. But we still have to stop the CPSC. The largest mattress companies pushed for and want this law for their own benefit. Now ISPA’s largest members, Leggett & Platt, Sealy, and Serta recently withdrew their membership.

U.S. MAY RAISE FIRE STANDARDS FOR MATTRESSES
Published: Sunday, July 24, 2005
FEATURES - HOME & GARDEN 01I
By Lee Stratton
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
(Columbus Ohio)

"In 2000, the National Academy of Sciences recommended that antimony -- the most commonly used fire retardant -- be banned in upholstered furniture. That recommendation was based on a 1998 European study that linked the chemical in crib mattresses to sudden infant death syndrome."

Unfortunately they charge you $1.50 to view the entire article. All the other news links on our site are free.

Fox59 TV Gets First Industry Admission of Chemicals in Beds

4/28/05 "The flames engulfed one mattress, but not the Serta mattress treated with a flame retardant ... Serta uses small amounts of Boric Acid or Boron ... While other mattress makers do offer similar flame retardant products in California, Serta is the only company to use a flame retardant system on it's entire line of mattresses across the country." Our health risk other side of the story also got good coverage, and the story asks, is it safe, and is the benefit worth the risk? Fox59 TV in Indianapolis ran the story.

See the story by Fox59 TV in Indianapolis, it ran as a two minute TV segment, but you can see the printed version on the Fox website by clicking here.

We talked to James Mowry, quoted in the story, who cited a study by the National Academy of Science. He said he was referring to a review done on flame retardants in upholstered furniture, not mattresses, and based his comments on the exposure data amount quoted by the reporter (data presumably provided by Serta). Further it looked at Zinc Borate back coated to upholstery fabric, not boric acid powder as loose dust in mattresses, and the amount of chemical used in mattresses is 7.5 times more than that in the fabric per sq/cm. (more details)

Interestingly, this review had some data for Antimony and warned against Antimony as a flame retardant for upholstered furniture.

Their grape juice comparison seems a wildly broad statement. At one hundred times more than in a year means you would absorb only .003 mg in a year. You would likely breathe more than this in a single breath while just being in the room with one of these mattresses. Our analysis shows the mattress contains 3.8 Million times more boron (found in boric acid) than found in a 6 oz glass of grape juice (.3 mg.).

By comparison, you would have to drink over 200 glasses of grape juice, about 10 gallons, every day for 50 years to equal the amount of Boric Acid in a mattress.

The San Francisco Chronicle, 3/2/05, Home Editor, Laura Thomas, did a 1500 word article exposing the health risks of toxic chemicals being used in mattresses to meet a new open flame resistance law. The new law is already effective in California and is being enacted nationwide by the Consumer Products Safety Commission within the next year.

See the article at: http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2005/03/02/HOGHSBDEL126.DTL

Laura did a great job of telling a balanced story from what people told her. But this illustrates the problem we face. Proponents whitewash the chemical issue and say they don’t use chemicals. The CPSC’s proposed law lists the various systems used to meet the standard, and their chemical content. A review of this document will prove the proponents statements wrong.

Neither the CPSC nor I have yet found a barrier system that does not require dangerous chemicals. See quotable truths on chemicals in mattresses, pages 138 to 162 of  the CPSC draft of this new law. See quotes and links to this document: http://www.peopleforcleanbeds.org/Quotes-CPSC.htm
