First 'totally washable' cot mattress unveiledPurFlo claims mattress is 'almost chemical free'
15 February 2010
A cot mattress claimed to be the world's first completely washable mattress - as well as being 'almost chemical free' - has been launched by PurFlo.
The company says the mesh surface of the mattress is 'chemical-free' and the outer valance uses 'one of the mildest fire-retardant products available'.
According to Purflo, the mattress can be washed 'over and over again', making it 'ideal for babies prone to allergies'.
