Protecting Children from Toxic Chemicals

CHCC logo

Sealy Baby crib mattresses and crib mattress pads meet the Children’s Safe Products Act and Chemicals of High Concern to Children (CHCC) regulations passed by Washington State.

Washington’s Legislature passed a groundbreaking law establishing the nation’s strictest standards for chemicals used in children’s products. There are currently 85 different chemicals of high concern to children that may come in contact with a child that can expose them to levels of toxic chemicals, and companies should report which chemicals are used as part of this regulation.

Parents and caregivers can feel confident that when choosing a Sealy baby sleep product it has been tested and meets these chemical regulations so the child is not touching potentially harmful chemicals.

Chemicals of high concern to children reporting list

ASTM International

Sealy Baby crib mattresses meet ASTM Crib Mattress standards to ensure safety and quality are built into every crib mattress.

Crib mattress standards went into effect August 15, 2022. These standards include testing for durability, compression, firmness and proper fit inside standard size cribs.

Additionally, there are new educational tags attached to every crib mattress and the opportunity to register your baby’s mattress with the manufacturer. Look for warning labels and registrations cards with dates of manufacture after August 15, 2022.

Not to worry, Sealy crib mattresses were passing voluntary standards prior to this date, so you can be sure any Sealy baby mattress is made with the highest safety in mind.

The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA)

Sealy Baby crib mattresses and mattress pads pass The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) testing for lead and phthalates and product safety standards.

The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) law tests all types of children’s products for safety. This includes crib mattresses and bedding to be tested at independent third-party laboratories to ensure they pass chemical standards for lead, heavy metals and phthalates. All children’s products should undergo rigorous safety tests presented in the toy safety standard. Consumers should be able to feel confident in their purchase by selecting products from reputable companies that offer a Children’s Product Certificate, which shows that it meets the CPSC testing required.
