DEPENDABLE, BREATHABLE, ORGANIC

Protect your little one, and their crib mattress, with trustworthy materials. Our fitted, lightweight pad is fully waterproof, machine-washable, and dependable in protecting your mattress from life’s accidents. The waterproof polyurethane is thin, so it doesn’t have a plastic-like crinkle or rubbery noise, and won’t cause sweaty backs. It’s sandwiched by two layers of gentle GOTS certified organic cotton. That means better sleep for your little one — and you, too.

STAY SAFE & DRY

Our Organic Waterproof Crib Protector Pad does not use vinyl, PVC, or phthalates — just a thin layer of polyurethane film. That means it sleeps cool while being safe and comfortable — and not dense, rubbery, or crinkly. The waterproof barrier is impenetrable to bed bugs, dust mites, liquids, and other allergens.

WHY ORGANIC MATTERS

Our Organic Waterproof Crib Protector Pad is a GOTS-certified organic product and the cotton we use is GOTS-certified organic, too. Why organic? Because organic cotton is held to a stricter standard and ours is responsibly grown in India without. Best of all, organic cotton delivers a luxurious finish, breathes easily, and wicks away moisture.

SIMPLE CARE

We make our Organic Waterproof Crib Protector Pad intentionally big because it will shrink to size as soon as you wash it. This may take a couple cycles. When washing, simply spot clean or machine wash using an eco-conscious laundry detergent. Do not use bleach. Tumble dry on low or just air it out on the line until completely dry.

CERTIFIED STANDARDS

Our Organic Waterproof Crib Mattress Protector is GREENGUARD Gold certified for low emissions and Formaldehyde Free certified.  he mattress protector is also MADE SAFE® Certified, a process that screen for materials linked to or suspected to cause harm to humans, animals, or ecosystems.

 

RADICALLY HONEST SPECS

  • Dimensions

  • Fits standard crib mattresses: 28" x 52" x 8" | 0.7 pounds
    Will shrink to fit after washing.

  • GOTS Organic Certified by Control Union, GREENGUARD Gold certified, Formaldehyde Free certified by UL Environment. MADE SAFE® Certified. A PETA-Approved vegan product.

  • Materials

  • Our Organic Waterproof Crib Mattress Protector and the fitted skirt is stitched with 95% GOTS organic certified cotton and a 5% polyurethane waterproofing layer. Manufactured for Avocado in Pakistan in a GOTS & GOLS organic certified factory. Asthma and allergy-friendly Materials.

    With certified organic cotton inside and out, our protector is well-suited for anyone with asthma or allergies. However, it does not create a “fully-encased seal” around your mattress, so it is not intended to function as an allergy barrier.

  • Performance Expectations

  • Our waterproof protector relies on two layers of organic cotton to absorb liquids and a thin, GOTS-approved polyurethane membrane in the middle, which functions as the waterproof barrier. Even so, all polyurethane-based membranes do have a tendency to get weaker over time and, sooner or later, their performance will drop. This can be the result of UV radiation, aging, flexing, high or low temperatures, punctures, and, of course, numerous washing cycles. Our waterproof protector represents the best possible performance while still being a GOTS certified organic product. But we do not warrant it to be foolproof. No protector can claim that. It is, however, great for life's little accidents, as the hundreds of customer reviews attest. (Pro tip: some parents use two protectors at once, so they can just remove the outer protector in case of an accident for cleaning.) If you need a thick plastic protector with a zipper enclosure, we don’t sell those due to risk of chemical off-gassing and our preference for organic and sustainable products.

  • Certifications

  • For a luxurious and premium finish, we use GOTS organic certified cotton in a soft, natural color. The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the worldwide leading textile processing standard for organic fibers, including ecological and social criteria, backed up by independent certification of the entire textile supply chain.  GREENGUARD Gold certified  for low emissions and Formaldehyde Free certified by UL Environment. MADE SAFE® screens for materials linked to or suspected to cause harm to humans, animals, or ecosystems.

  • Care Instructions

  • Please wash your Organic Waterproof Crib Protector prior to use with an eco-conscious laundry detergent. Do not bleach. Tumble dry low or hang on the line until completely dry. It may take up to three washes to get the protector to proper size. We made them intentionally big since they are 100% cotton and will shrink.

  • Return Policy

  • 100-night trial: If you decide your Avocado Organic Cotton Crib Sheet is not right for you, simply return it for a full refund.

  • Warranty

  • 1-Year Warranty: Rest assured — you’re buying a high-quality organic product that will only get better the more you wash it.

  • Climate Neutral Certified

  • As a Climate Neutral Certified company since 2019, we've measured Avocado's annual cradle-to-consumer emissions, offset them by investing in climate change solutions, and started taking real action to reduce our emissions. We also recognize our offsets and reductions aren't enough. Solving climate change will require systemic solutions. That's why, through our partnerships with Ceres and the American Sustainable Business Network, we also advocate for state and federal policies that support equitable solutions to the climate crisis.
