What Bettar Play Is Made Of
Bettar Play cushions are made in Malaysia from three materials: a water-resistant, double-layer fabric cover; high-density foam; and 100% natural latex. The fabric is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified and SGS tested, and the core is CertiPUR-US® and eco-INSTITUT certified. This page explains what goes into each Bettar Play product and how to look after it.
What is the cover made of?
A Signature set's own cover is a double-layer, water-resistant fabric: double-backed thick polyester, removable and machine-washable. The fabric is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified and SGS tested.
Spare Signature 8-pc cover sets, sold separately in 4 colours (Coconut Beige, Flamingo Pink, Honey Mustard and Ocean Green), are 100% polyester with a soft fleece backing. They are non-skid, stain-, scratch- and water-resistant, and withstand over 30,000 rubs in abrasion tests.

How do I look after them?
Vacuum the fabric regularly. When needed, remove the covers and wash them according to their washing instructions; the water-resistant fabric can also be spot cleaned with water. Do not soak the cushions for long, and keep them away from heat and direct sunlight, which protects the natural latex. Bettar Play cushions are designed for indoor use.
