How Does an Avocado Green Mattress Compare to an Awara?

Debating between an Avocado Green Mattress and an Awara Mattress?

Here are a few things you should know:

1. The Awara mattress is not a certified organic product and not listed on the GOTS public database. A GOTS certified product is made with certified organic materials in a facility that is also certified for organic production. This matters. GOTS certification ensures — using on-site inspections and verification of records from the farm to the factory — that the organic materials and finished product are healthy for you, safe for the people that made them, and good for the environment; while at the same time, it ensures that social responsibility standards (ethical animal treatment, living wages, etc.) are met across the supply chain.
2. Avocado is a needle-tufted mattress. We use a traditional handwork process in which long steel needles are pulled through a mattresses (in up to 32 spots) in order to hold the mattress together without using glue. It's a hallmark of a quality mattress. Awara is not needle-tufted. Instead, they spray water-based chemical adhesives to glue their layers together. Adhesives are major contributors of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), which pollute indoor air quality. In contrast, an Avocado Green Mattress is Greenguard Gold certified and verified to Formaldehyde free by UL Environment®.
3. Avocado uses organic certified wool (from our own farms) to naturally inhibit flammability and meet all safety standards. Awara uses hydrated silica. As a result of this, and other factors, the Awara mattress is not MADE SAFE® certified — one of the highest standards for products, ensuring that they are safe for humans and the environment.
4. Avocado uses one of the best innerspring unit on the market, with 5 zones and up to 1,414 pocketed innerspring that float independently. In contrast, Awara uses 32% fewer springs (King size). Fewer innersprings deliver less full body support and diminish durability. Equally important, because the Awara uses fewer springs, motion transfer across the bed (disturbing your partner) is increased.
5. All Avocado claims are backed by trusted, third-party certifications in our brand name, for radical transparency and responsibility. Even Avocado's giving initiatives through 1% for the Planet® are verified.
