Both the Avocado Green Mattress and the My Green Mattress® Natural Escape are GOTS certified organic at the finished-product level, using natural latex over coil systems with organic wool flame barriers. The Avocado Green Mattress additionally holds five further finished-product nontoxic certifications (OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Class I, EWG Verified®, MADE SAFE®, GREENGUARD Gold, UL® Formaldehyde-Free), publishes PFAS test results, and offers five firmness options.

My Green Mattress is a family-owned manufacturer based in LaGrange, Illinois, and is one of the relatively small number of mattress brands holding a finished-product GOTS certification. Both Avocado and My Green Mattress build their mattresses around GOLS-certified organic Dunlop latex with organic wool and organic cotton — a similar foundational construction.

The differences are in certification depth, independent testing transparency, firmness range, and supply-chain ownership.

Finished-product GOTS is the foundational organic certification — both mattresses hold it. The question of additional certifications is about what other independent standards have tested the finished product.

OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Class I is the strictest OEKO-TEX tier, designed for products used by babies and toddlers, and tests against thresholds for formaldehyde, phthalates, heavy metals, and pesticide residues. The Avocado Green Mattress is certified to Class I at the finished-product level. The Natural Escape holds OEKO-TEX certification on its latex layer per public records, not as a finished-product certification.

MADE SAFE® screens against thousands of substances known or suspected to harm human health, aquatic life, and wildlife. EWG Verified® requires full ingredient transparency and screens against EWG's health-based criteria — including prohibitions on chemical flame retardants, fiberglass, PFAS, and PVC. UL® Formaldehyde-Free independently verifies the absence of added formaldehyde. The Avocado Green Mattress holds all three; the Natural Escape does not list these certifications publicly.

Each standard tests for different substances through different methodologies, so that fewer gaps go unchecked.

Avocado screens for 679 PFAS substances at parts-per-billion sensitivity across core materials and waterproof protectors. No detectable amounts have been found. Full results — substance list, methodology, and findings — are published publicly in our Help Center.

My Green Mattress has not published comparable PFAS test results for the Natural Escape.

The Avocado Green Mattress is available in five firmness options: Extra Firm, Firm, Medium, Plush (Euro-top), and Ultra Plush (box-top), and in five height profiles ranging from 9.75" to 15.5". The My Green Mattress Natural Escape is available in a single medium-firm option. For partners with different firmness preferences, or for shoppers needing a specific firmness profile, this matters.

For shoppers seeking Avocado's certification position at a lower price point, the Avocado Eco Organic Mattress is Avocado's most affordable certified-organic option, with the same finished-product GOTS license (CU863637).

Avocado owns its GOTS-certified manufacturing facility in Fullerton, California, and owns the farms in India and Guatemala that supply its GOLS-certified organic latex and the farm in India that supplies its GOTS-certified organic wool. My Green Mattress manufactures in LaGrange, Illinois, and sources its certified-organic materials from third-party suppliers.

Vertical integration is one approach to supply chain transparency; sourcing from independently certified suppliers is another. Both are valid business models; ownership of the source materials is a relevant point of comparison if direct supply chain accountability matters to you.

Avocado holds B Corp certification (since May 2020), 1% for the Planet membership, Climate Label Certification, an 88% landfill diversion rate (UL 2799 validated), FSC® certification across the latex and manufacturing supply chain, Responsible Wool Standard, Responsible Down Standard, OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN, and Fairtrade certification. Avocado has published a 48% absolute reduction in Scope 1+2+3 emissions since 2021 and produces an annual Impact Report covering material sourcing, manufacturing practices, and verified giving programs. My Green Mattress has not published comparable brand-level sustainability program credentials.

The Avocado Green Mattress offers a 365-night sleep trial and a 25-year limited warranty with full non-prorated coverage in years 1–10. The My Green Mattress Natural Escape offers a 120-night sleep trial and a 20-year limited warranty.

Yes, per public records. My Green Mattress is one of a small number of mattress brands holding a finished-product GOTS certification. Both the Avocado Green Mattress (CU863637) and the Natural Escape hold finished-product GOTS certification.

GOTS is the foundational organic certification at the finished-product level; both hold it. The differences lie in additional independent certifications (OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 Class I, MADE SAFE®, EWG Verified®, UL® Formaldehyde-Free), published PFAS testing transparency, firmness range, sleep-trial length, brand-level sustainability programs (B Corp, Climate Label, 1% for the Planet), and supply-chain ownership.

EWG Verified® is an independent standard from the Environmental Working Group that requires full public ingredient disclosure and screens the finished mattress against EWG's health-based criteria — including prohibitions on chemical flame retardants, fiberglass, PFAS, and PVC. The Avocado Green Mattress is EWG Verified®; the My Green Mattress Natural Escape is not listed. For a full explanation, see What EWG Verified Means on a Mattress.

No. Avocado mattresses do not contain fiberglass. Organic wool serves as the natural flame barrier, meeting federal flammability standards without chemical flame retardants or fiberglass.

Every Avocado organic mattress is handcrafted and hand needle-tufted at our GOTS-certified manufacturing facility in Fullerton, California, with domestic and imported materials.
