The Pillars of a Healthy Home
Clean Air
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) can significantly impact indoor air quality. We believe a truly healthy home starts with the air you breathe. Our commitment to zero-VOC oils and finishes ensures that your furniture introduces no harmful emissions, promoting a purer, more invigorating atmosphere. We also advocate for natural ventilation, inviting fresh air to circulate freely through your living spaces.

Many conventional textiles are laden with pesticides and synthetic dyes that can irritate delicate skin and contribute to indoor pollutants. Cosmos Hearth carefully curates textiles made from GOTS-certified organic cotton and linen, guaranteeing they are free from harmful chemicals from cultivation to finishing. Look for our OEKO-TEX certifications, assuring you of a product that is safe for both your family and the planet.

Synthetic lacquers often off-gas harmful chemicals long after they're applied. We celebrate the inherent beauty of wood by protecting it with natural oil and wax finishes. These not only enhance the wood's grain and texture but also allow it to breathe, contributing to a healthier indoor environment. Experience the difference of furniture finished thoughtfully and sustainably, bringing natural warmth and peace to your home.

Know Your Enemy: Common Household Toxins
Found in: Particleboard, medium-density fiberboard (MDF), glues, paints, certain permanent-press fabrics, and insulation.
Health Risk: A known human carcinogen, formaldehyde can cause respiratory irritation, asthma-like symptoms, and allergic reactions. Prolonged exposure is linked to more serious health issues.
Cosmos Hearth Alternative: We prioritize solid wood furniture, natural and formaldehyde-free adhesives, and fabrics free from harsh chemical treatments. Our timber is responsibly sourced, and our manufacturing processes are transparent.
Found in: Most conventional paints, varnishes, lacquers, cleaning supplies, air fresheners, and some synthetic materials used in furniture and flooring.
Health Risk: VOCs are gases emitted from certain solids or liquids. They can cause eye, nose, and throat irritation, headaches, nausea, and damage to the liver, kidney, and central nervous system. Some are suspected carcinogens.
Cosmos Hearth Alternative: We exclusively use zero-VOC paints and wood finishes for our furniture and recommend only natural alternatives for home maintenance. Our product selection focuses on materials that naturally off-gas minimal to no volatile compounds.
Found in: PVC plastics (vinyl flooring, shower curtains), synthetic leather, fragrances in air fresheners and cleaning products, and some personal care products.
Health Risk: Phthalates are endocrine disruptors, meaning they can interfere with the body's hormonal system. They have been linked to developmental, reproductive, and other health concerns.
Cosmos Hearth Alternative: We avoid products containing PVC and synthetic fragrances. We champion natural materials like solid wood, organic cotton, linen, and wool, which inherently do not contain phthalates, ensuring a safer home environment.
