Nontoxic Weighted Blanket

January 4, 2020 by Lisa Powers

Question from Kiersten

I've been searching for a weighted blanket to find and am having no luck finding one that doesn't include some kind of polyester. The best I've found is this for example, with glass beads and certified toxic-free fabrics, but they still say the use a thin layer of polyester batting to hold the beads in place: https://balooliving.com

Have you done any research into weighted blankets and found one that is made entirely with toxic free materials?

 

Lisa’s Answer

A reader recommended Bearaby.com which make the Napper which is made of GOTS certified organic cotton.  It is the best one I have found.  Be careful, Bearaby sell other blankets that are not organic, natural materials.

Here is another one that was recommended by a reader.  It is not organic, but it is 100% cotton with glass beads.
