Yes. The sewing and embroidery threads used in every Avocado mattress, topper, and pillow are OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified (94.0.6007, Hohenstein) for compliance with harmful-substance limits and environmental standards in production. The thread manufacturer also holds ISO 9001 accreditation for quality management.
But the more important answer is this: every Avocado mattress — not just the thread inside it — is certified under OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Class I, the highest OEKO-TEX category, specifically designed for products intended for babies and toddlers. That finished-product certification covers every component, including stitching and embroidery thread, tested as part of the whole.
That matters because harmful substances don't announce themselves by component. A mattress built from certified materials can still carry risk if the adhesives, dyes, or threads used to assemble it introduce substances the core certifications don't cover. OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Class I closes that gap by testing the finished product — every part of it — against strict human-ecological criteria for harmful substances. No exceptions for small details.
A thread is a small part of a mattress. The standard we hold it to is not.
