Essentia and the Environment

At Essentia, we fully understand the responsibilities of being a manufacturer in today's society. That's why we develop and manufacture products that produce 88% less waste during production than most mattress manufacturers. Derived from renewable resources, our 100% biodegradable mattresses and memory foam are good for both the environment and consumer health.

As such, Essentia is proud to enumerate the following in its environmentally conscious company profile:

made in canadaProudly Developed and Manufactured in Canada

To create healthy & performing mattresses and pillows it's fundamental to know the components that make up these products. This is why we develop and manufacture our own components.

Manufacturing and distributing Essentia products from a single common location cuts down fuel consumption in transportation, which allows for better prices and supports the North American economy, as many of our ingredients are from both Canada and the United States.

All products are manufactured by hand, by the Essentia team, just outside Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
