Wholesale GREEN Cotton (US grown no FRs)
Green Cotton without Fire Retardant The cotton we use to make our standard mattresses is known as "green" cotton. This means that once it is harvested from the bolls it is unprocessed - no bleaches, dyes or fungicides. This cotton makes good pillows and mattresses. We have good wholesale cotton prices. Our green cotton comes in layers cut to size of crib, twin, double/full, queen or king mattresses. We also have smaller pieces good for making pillows and cushions. Samples available.

Green cotton comes from US conventionally grown cotton that is not bleached or process. The textile industry leaves some pieces of the cotton fiber behind that cannot be used to make t-shirts, fabrics etc…. This left over cotton fiber would have ended up in a landfill, until some smart folks discovered that by garneting this extra cotton fiber, they would create cotton batting which is now used in our mattresses, pillows and other bedding. This is why we call it GREEN COTTON, it is a fiber that is now up-cycled and this is something we can all feel good about. In the 28 years of White Lotus Home’s existence, we have saved over 2 million pounds of cotton from ending up in a landfill. The scent that you may experience is due to the fact that while the cotton is harvested, the cotton seeds are broken, therefore releasing cotton seed oil scent, just like what happens with the popcorn seeds. This scent will dissipate with time. We guarantee that you have nothing to worry about, if you have never been in the middle of a cotton field, this scent may not be familiar to you.
We do have a 100% organic Peruvian Pima cotton that is hand harvested therefore the seeds are NOT broken and the scent is almost none, but the prices are about 2.5 times of our standard natural products. We will be offering this cotton in our bedding very soon, if we are not already.
