How to Swap to Non-Toxic cribs:
Here's how to swap to non-toxic cribs:
What to know about cribs
Welpr focuses on what a crib is made of and how it's finished. Since babies spend many hours sleeping in their crib every day, the materials and coatings are in close, prolonged contact with your baby's skin and breathing space.
- The main things Welpr looks at are the type of wood or material, the finish or paint used, and whether any foam components are free from flame retardants and off-gassing.
- Cribs made from solid wood with low- or zero-VOC finishes are the standard Welpr prioritizes, especially when backed by third-party certifications.
Review the crib you already have
Check your crib's product listing, manual, or manufacturer website for details on materials and finishes. Look for information about the type of wood, what the paint or stain is made of, and whether the mattress or any padding has certifications.
- Look for terms like 'solid wood,' 'zero-VOC finish,' 'water-based paint,' 'GREENGUARD Gold certified,' or 'CertiPUR-US certified foam' — these are good signs.
- If the brand doesn't clearly list what the crib is made of or what finishes were used, that's worth noting — Welpr considers full transparency a baseline requirement.
Use your current crib more safely
If you're not ready to replace your crib right away, a few simple steps can help reduce your baby's exposure to any off-gassing from finishes or materials.
- Unbox and air out a new crib in a well-ventilated room for several days before your baby sleeps in it — this helps VOCs from paint or finishes dissipate.
- Use an organic cotton or wool mattress cover as a barrier between your baby and the crib mattress, especially if the mattress doesn't have a CertiPUR-US or GREENGUARD certification.
Choose a cleaner crib
When you're ready to shop, look for cribs made from solid wood with low- or zero-VOC finishes. Third-party certifications usually indicate a safer product.
- Prioritize cribs with GREENGUARD Gold certification, which tests for chemical emissions, and look for CertiPUR-US certified foam if the mattress is included — avoid vague claims like 'eco-friendly' or 'natural' without certification to back them up.
