The Materials
All Nook products are entirely non-toxic. We emphasize Nature's own performance
solutions to replace harsh chemical treatments and free the crib of off-gasses
and skin irritants. When infants sleep healthy, parents sleep happy.

"Good" PETE
PETE is short for polyethylene teraphthalate, a fancy name for a clean and easily recycled plastic. "Good" PETE is so safe, the FDA approves it for bottling water and considers it a healthy alternative to toxic synthetics.
-
"Strong" PETE
PETE is a uniquely sturdy material used inside the Pebble Mattress to promote airflow by creating open spaces. Thanks to the strength of PETE, these inner airways maintain their integrity even under the weight of an infant or toddler.
-
PETE vs. standard plastic
Unlike plastics- like vinyl or BPA found in many standard mattresses, "good" PETE is both non-toxic and non-leaching, so much so, that it qualifies for the Oeko-Tex® safety certification. Infants breathe cleaner, healthier air for a safer night's sleep.

People and planet friendly
The "good" PETE in Nook products is easily recycled which means a reduction in unnecessary plastics in our world.
