Why Sustainability Is the Hottest New Trend in the Bedroom

Blogs and web articles are full of tips and tricks for the bedroom. One element they might not explore, though, is how sustainability can have a profound effect on your ability to rest and recharge. Referring to eco-friendly fabrics manufactured free from harmful chemicals, sustainable bedding is natural and healthful. The end result is that it’s better for both you and the environment. At Latest Bedding, we take pride in stocking a wide array of bedding and accessories made with natural materials and practices. Keep reading to learn more about sustainability and discover why it’s becoming the latest trend in bedroom decor. 

Better for the Environment 

Eco-consciousness is on the rise. In fact, a recent study revealed that 90 percent of Gen Zers are making an effort to live more sustainable lives. The good news is some of the most respected modern bedding brands are equally passionate about safeguarding the natural world. By using sustainable materials like 100 percent cotton, and avoiding chemicals and pesticides, companies can reduce the amount of pollution entering the environment. The goal is to preserve natural resources while protecting the Earth for future generations. 

Better for the Individual

Sustainable bedding isn’t just better for the natural world. It also helps people live healthier lives while maximizing sleep and comfort. Unlike comforters crafted from synthetic materials, 100 percent cotton is natural and breathable. That means air and moisture pass right through the fabric rather than lingering on the skin. The coolness of cotton makes it a popular choice among skin allergy sufferers and anyone who tends to sleep hot. Additionally, customers prefer sustainable bedding for financial reasons. Sheets and comforters made from eco-friendly materials tend to last longer, suffering less wear and tear and resisting pilling. So you won’t have to waste time and money buying new pieces. Plus, investing in more durable bedding helps reduce the amount of waste created by the textile industry on an annual basis. 

How to Select Eco-Friendly Bedding

The good news is that a number of brands are jumping on the eco-conscious bandwagon, producing bedding products made from all-natural materials. When selecting premium comforter, we suggest opting for fabrics like cotton and Egyptian cotton. For example, Bebejan manufactures its bedding sets with 100 percent cotton sateen shells. Not only do they feel cool and crisp against the body, but they also have a lower impact on the environment. Prefer the silky softness of long-staple Egyptian cotton? Consider a sheet collection or duvet cover set from Pure Parima, which sources all its cotton straight from the Nile River Valley. As a bonus, both these brands sell bedding that showcases the OEKO-TEX seal on the packaging. The end result is that you can feel good about where family members are resting their heads at night.
