Haven mattress uses premium adhesives that are waterbased and even food grade quality, WHY

When most people shop for a mattress, they think about firmness, support, or materials like latex and memory foam. What they don’t often consider is what holds it all together the adhesives. At Haven Sleep Co., even this invisible detail matters, because what’s inside your mattress affects the air you breathe, the health of your home, and the longevity of your sleep investment.

The Unseen Truth About Adhesives in Mattresses

Many conventional mattresses use solvent-based glues that contain harsh chemicals, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These VOCs can off-gas into your bedroom for weeks or even months, leaving that familiar “new mattress smell”  which is actually a sign of chemical emissions.
At Haven, we take a different approach. Every layer in our mattresses is bonded using premium, water-based adhesives that are so safe, they meet food-grade quality standards.

Why Water-Based Adhesives Matter

1. Cleaner Indoor Air Quality
   Haven’s water-based adhesives emit virtually zero VOCs, protecting the air you breathe. This means no harsh odors and no harmful off-gassing  just the clean, crisp scent of a freshly crafted mattress.

2. Healthier Sleep for You and Your Family
   Because our adhesives are food-grade, they meet rigorous safety standards typically reserved for the packaging that touches what we eat. That’s peace of mind for families, children, and anyone with allergies or chemical sensitivities.

3. Better for the Planet
   Solvent-based glues rely on petroleum-derived chemicals that can pollute the air and water during manufacturing. Haven’s water-based adhesives are made with sustainable components that minimize environmental impact from start to finish from our Canadian factory floor to your bedroom.

4. Stronger, Longer-Lasting Bonds
   Unlike some “eco” glues that sacrifice performance, our water-based adhesives deliver exceptional durability. Each layer from our cooling foams to our Talalay latex  is permanently bonded, ensuring years of supportive, consistent comfort.

5. Made for Responsible Manufacturing
   At the Haven Innovation Centre, we believe sustainability starts with smart design and clean chemistry. Using food-grade adhesives means our team can work in a safer environment while maintaining precision craftsmanship in every mattress built fresh to order.

Small Details, Big Difference

At Haven, we obsess over every component  not just the foams and fabrics you see, but the invisible elements that contribute to a healthier, more sustainable sleep system. Choosing safer adhesives isn’t the easy route; it’s the right one. It’s how we stay true to our mission of giving Canadians a cleaner, healthier, and more restorative night’s sleep.

Sleep well knowing your Haven Mattress is held together with care  for you, your family, and the planet.
