Description:
This Organic Cotton Pillow combines a 300 thread count 100% organic cotton dust mite barrier fabric with 100% plant based PLA fiber filling for a luxurious and healthy sleep.
Also known as polylactide, PLA is a non-aromatic polyester derived 100% from renewable resources. The PLA fiber for these pillows start with an abundant, natural resource - organic non-GMO sugarcane. The starch gets isolated from the other components of the plant and gets turned into sugar. The sugar is fermented in a process similar to making yogurt to create lactic acid. Lactic acid is a naturally occurring material that gives the “tang” to yogurt and makes your muscles ache after a work-out. From lactic acid a molecule called lactide is created. Water is then removed and it gets crystallized to create the high-performance polymer – polylactide (PLA).
PLA performs well in the wash and provides a soft and comfortable feel. It has been tested for chemical emissions and does not off-gas harmful chemicals. PLA is used in food packaging materials and a number of biomedical applications such as sutures, stents, and drug delivery devices. PLA is a non-toxic and sustainable alternative to petroleum-derived products with unique comfort attributes.
It is GOTS certified organic, and was produced in a factory that meets the strictest GREENGUARD® certification standards for eliminating chemical emissions.
