Our evergreen foam is manufactured 100% in the United States from a mixture of natural plant-based oils and conventional non-toxic polyols. All foam is a man-made product derived from some kind of oil, and the foam we use is certified to be derived from blended natural ingredients. Our foam is as green as foam gets, with no heavy metal additives and no petroleum-sourced chemicals of any kind!

Furthermore, we add no dyes or fire retardant chemicals to the foam we receive, which itself is made compliant with new regulations requiring that this material be devoid of any synthetic fire retardant agent.

All foam is comprised of oils. These oils, regardless of origin, form the organic compound polyurethane --- it's an umbrella term that describes the chemical compound, not the source. While most conventional oils will use damaging petroleum as their base, our Evergreen Foam will only use soy, castor, and other vegetable oils. To process the liquid oil into a foam product, polyols are added; polyol is sugar-based alcohol derived from castor and vegetable oils that burns off in the manufacturing process. In short, even though foam is a man-made product, all components of our Evergreen Foam are naturally derived from plant-based oils. It's as natural as foam can come!

You can think of the process much like baking a whisky cake: the batter starts out as a liquid, but baking chemically transforms the mixture from liquid to solid, while the alcohol burns off almost entirely.

* Please note: If you order a product containing foam, your product tag may say that your item contains "Urethane Foam." Don't be alarmed! Polyurethane is just the term for the organic compound prevalent in foam; the important thing is this urethane is not petroleum-derived.

This is how to measure our Bean Bags.

Care

Care and Cleaning: Pillows, Duvets, and Bedding

As they are raw, minimally processed fibers, our products cannot be completely submerged in water without damaging the fibers within. This includes pillows and duvets.

We recommend spot cleaning your White Lotus Home pillows, duvets, and bedding with a solution of 3 parts water to one part vinegar. Spray the solution onto the stain and expose to sunlight. Let dry and repeat until the stain fades and odors dissipate. You can also substitute vinegar with a mild laundry detergent. For surface stains, hydrogen peroxide works well for blood, whereas rubbing alcohol can help to remove oils from cosmetics.

Bedding should not remain damp, as it may encourage uneven wear or mold growth. Following a spill or cleaning, dry any moisture by placing the item in the sun or by using a hair dryer. Ensure it is fully dry before re-adding sheets or protective covers, such as our Organic Barrier Cloth Covers.

Please note that these suggestions are at your own risk. Results may vary.

Refreshing Wool Bedding

Wool bedding, such as duvets and toppers, occasionally require special care. We recommend exposing it to direct sunlight and air once a month --- sunlight works as a natural sanitizer. If you prefer to send them to the cleaners, use a dry-cleaning process only. Never submerge wool bedding in water or place it in the washing machine, as this can cause irreversible felting of the wool.
