GREENGUARD Gold Certified Cribs: Safe Picks for Modern Nurseries

GREENGUARD Gold certified cribs are the gold standard for safer sleep. If you're designing a modern nursery and care about non-toxic baby furniture, this certification should be on your checklist. In this post, we’ll explain what GREENGUARD Gold means, why it matters, and introduce three certified cribs we proudly offer: the Moss Crib, Sparrow Crib, and Classic Crib.

What Is GREENGUARD Gold Certification?

GREENGUARD Gold is a third-party certification for products that meet strict chemical emissions limits. It ensures that baby furniture—like cribs—doesn’t emit harmful levels of VOCs (volatile organic compounds).

This matters because indoor air quality is especially important for babies, who spend up to 16 hours a day in their cribs.

Why Certification Matters for Cribs

Many parents are surprised to learn how much air pollution comes from paints, glues, and finishes used on everyday nursery furniture. Babies are more vulnerable to these chemicals due to their small size and rapid development.

When a crib is GREENGUARD Gold certified, it has been rigorously tested for over 10,000 chemicals and meets the highest standard for low-emission furniture—supporting a safer home environment.
