Here’s Sleep and Beyond’s story in their own words...

MISSION STATEMENT

To help and educate our customers about the benefits of a full night of rejuvenating sleep through providing them with pure, Organic and chemical-free merino wool bedding.

Sleep and Beyond™ is family run and one of the few worldwide manufacturers of luxurious USDA Certified Organic merino wool bedding. Since 1992, they have been hand making each of their world famous Organic comforters, one at a time. They are active members of Organic Trade Association, Co-op America, Better Business Bureau and IFOAM, an International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements.

Sleep and Beyond raises their own merino sheep and processes the wool organically. The sheep graze on fields for an average of 16-18 hours a day, receiving daily sunlight, consuming 100% organic feed, and having the freedom of movement, which increases their immune system and keeps them less vulnerable to diseases and infections. Within one year, their merino sheep can grow up to 30 lbs of organic wool. It is then sorted and washed with hot water and organic soap to remove impurities that account for 30-60% of the total fleece weight. No sheep are ever harmed in any process used to create the beautiful organic merino wool used in these comforters.

Their Organic cotton is hand planted, hand cultivated and hand picked in the Southern regions of India. It is then processed Organically without using any heavy metals, formaldehyde, or other harmful chemicals that are often used in conventional cotton processing. They also take an extra step in building long term relationships with their Organic cotton farmers and their families who get paid fair wages and receive premium prices for their cotton. The processing mill is ISO certified, guaranteeing the Fair Trade production and high quality environmental management system. Wind power is used for generating and meeting out the energy requirement for the spinning operations, which is not only cost effective but also eco-friendly.

Did you know that on average we spend 1/3 of our lives in bed sleeping and breathing, the entire time absorbing nasty chemicals, fire retardants, and toxic odors from conventional bedding products into our bodies that eventually lead to sleep disorders, severe allergies and asthma, especially in children? As an organic bedding manufacturer, we ensure that none of the Volatile Organic Compounds, arsenic or other toxic chemicals, are used in creating a safe sleeping environment for you. A natural sleeping atmosphere free of carcinogenic chemicals ensures a healthy beginning for babies as they spend most of their time sleeping.
