OMI (Organic Mattresses, Inc.. ) Greenest Mattress in the Nation Showcased in Green Access House

Online, October 4, 2010 (Newswire.com) - YUBA CITY, CA- When the award-winning Bellevue interior design team of Henredon & Schoener was tasked with finding an organic mattress to furnish the ultimate green bedroom for the Green Access Home in Suncadia, they went to the brand that they trusted most, Organic Mattresses, Inc.

"We wanted to showcase an organic mattress that truly lived up to its name, and that was OMI," said partner Linda Schoener. "Not only are OMI mattresses created with the purest raw materials available, they are manufactured in a way that maintains their purity while protecting the environment, which was very important to the integrity of this project."

The Green Access House in Suncadia is a 2,000 square foot, three-bedroom, two-bath contemporary mountain cabin in Cle Elum, Washington, that was constructed by a collective group of green contractors, designers and environmental experts to showcase universally accessible, affordable and cost-effective, earth-friendly and sustainable building methods, materials and furnishings. The home is open for public viewing on select dates in September and October.

Henredon & Schoener chose the OrganicPedic® by OMI products because they offer luxurious comfort without compromising purity.

"OMI is the mattress we choose to sell in our store so we can offer our clients the purest mattress on the market. It is also the mattress I personally sleep on because I love the comfort," said Schoener.
