Today's consumer cares about what's inside the products they buy for themselves and their families. The CertiPUR® seal enables consumers to make informed choices about the foam in the products they choose and eliminate concerns about "toxic" or "hazardous" materials.

The CertiPUR® voluntary testing, analysis and certification program was developed by members of the global foam industry in response to an increase in substandard imported foams. CertiPUR® tests for durability, content and indoor emissions.

CertiPUR® is an extension of the European CertiPUR® program developed in 2002 by EUROPUR, the association of European flexible polyurethane foam block manufacturers. Home furnishings items, such as upholstered furniture and mattresses, that carry the CertiPUR® seal contain flexible polyurethane foam products that have been tested and certified by an independent laboratory to meet specific criteria for physical performance, indoor emissions and environmental stewardship.
