About Holy Lamb Organics

Holy Lamb Organics makes bedding by hand in Oakville, Washington, in a former general store. Its products are filled and covered with natural materials: American wool, organic cotton, and Dunlop natural latex in its mattresses and toppers, which the brand says comes from FSC-certified rubber farms.

The wool is what Holy Lamb calls Eco Wool, sourced from American farms. The brand is clear that it is not certified organic, because almost no organic wool is grown in the United States. It says its wool is tested for heavy metals, that its production facilities are GOTS certified, and that its products are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified.

What to know: we read Holy Lamb’s product and certification pages. None of them says what its sewing thread, sewn-in labels or zippers are made of. Ask the brand if these details matter to you.

Worth knowing: a small share of this brand's products contain trace amounts of plastic. Why we flag this

Materials & certifications

Materials

Cotton

A soft, breathable, absorbent, and versatile natural fiber grown from the fluffy bolls of cotton plants.

Good to know: Conventional cotton is one of the world's dirtiest crops as cultivation heavily relies on pesticides, herbicides (glyphosate), and fertilizers, raising concerns about environmental pollution, soil health, and potential health risks for farmers and consumers. This is why some brands and consumers push for "100% organic cotton." Organic cotton skips the harsh chemicals, making it a more eco-friendly and healthier choice.

Natural Latex

A biodegradable, elastic material sourced from the sap of the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), valued for its durability and comfort. It is processed through methods that maintain its natural composition without synthetic additives or harsh chemicals.

Uses: Favored in products requiring flexibility and resilience, such as mattresses, furniture, pillows, and various apparel components.

Good to know: "100% Natural Latex" assures a product made solely from harvested rubber tree sap, without synthetic materials. The vulcanization process uses generally safe chemicals like sulfur and zinc oxide and doesn't synthetically alter the latex but stabilizes its inherent qualities.

Wool

Wool is a natural protein fiber obtained from the fleece of sheep and other animals, including alpacas, goats (such as cashmere and mohair goats), and rabbits (like angora). It's known for its durability, insulation properties, and ability to absorb moisture without feeling wet.

Certifications

GOTS
Textiles with this certification must contain at least 70% organic content and meet comprehensive ecological and social criteria. Notably, GOTS encompasses the entire supply chain, from the sourcing of fibers to the final stages of processing, manufacturing, and distribution. The label can be granted to entire brands or individual fabric suppliers and manufacturers.
OEKO-TEX
OEKO-TEX certification promises that every product component has been tested for harmful substances. The only downside is that OEKO-TEX does not require organic components and only tests the final product for chemicals, pesticides, and dyes.
