Safety Regulations
1. Product Safety Regulations

These regulations mandate that mattresses meet specific flammability standards, particularly resistance to ignition from cigarettes. Compliance is determined through testing as per the Canadian General Standards Board standard CAN/CGSB-4.2 No. 27.7-2013.
10. Environmental Regulations
Be aware of regulations regarding the use of materials in mattresses, such as restrictions on certain chemicals or requirements for recyclable materials, to comply with environmental standards.
