A UNIQUELY COMFORTABLE PILLOW MADE FROM NON-GMO SUGARCANE
Our softest and most gentle pillow, the Organic Cotton/PLA Pillow offers a plush, down-inspired feel using a plant-based fiber fill instead of feathers. The result is a smooth, airy pillow that cushions without overheating and supports without pushing back – an ideal match for back and stomach sleepers, children and anyone who prefers a lower-loft profile where the head rests closer to the mattress. Inside, the pillow is filled with a silky PLA fiber made from non-GMO sugarcane. It’s designed to mimic the softness and drape of traditional down but without the allergens or animal-based materials. The fill maintains gentle structure throughout the night while remaining easy to shape to your preferred position. Wrapped in GOTS-certified organic cotton fabric, the entire pillow is breathable, moisture-resistant and exceptionally comfortable.

What Makes This Pillow So Amazing?
premium natural & organic materials
Most pillows are filled with polyester fiber or polyurethane foam (and often foam scraps, too). These materials typically contain undesirable, unnecessary chemical additives.
With the PLA Pillow, you get GOTS certified organic cotton fabric and premium PLA fiber filling made from non-GMO sugarcane. This pillow is also made without any animal products or byproducts or animal testing. A perfect complement to any Naturepedic organic mattress!
fluffy fiber filling
With the PLA Pillow, you get a plush pillow with a traditional fiber-based feel. Similar to a polyester pillow, but without petroleum, the Naturepedic PLA Pillow provides a more sustainable and healthier option. Comfy, supportive, simple – a better way to sleep.
removable washable outer cover
The luxurious organic cotton outer cover is soft and stretchy so it can perfectly contour to your head and neck while remaining easy to slip off for laundering. Since the fluffy PLA fill is fully contained in an internal organic cotton jersey encasement, removing the outer cover is a breeze. This practical yet elegant approach makes it easy to care for your pillow, keeping it fresh and clean for years to come. Machine wash and dry.
sleeps cool
Fiber pillows are known for their breathability and the Naturepedic PLA Pillow does not disappoint. The fine denier fibers are not only resilient but refreshingly breathable, too. This allows for plenty of airflow so you can avoid the constant pillow flipping that many other pillows cause (notoriously problematic with solid memory foam pillows). Plus, the 100% certified organic cotton encasement only enhances breathability. No more restless nights – just cool, comfy sleep.

Minimized Chemical Exposure At Naturepedic, we minimize environmental impact and health risks by strictly avoiding flame retardants, phthalates, vinyl/PVC, formaldehyde and other materials found in conventional mattresses and bedding. We adhere to strict, third-party standards and testing protocols and, in 2021, we became the first mattress brand to complete the Organic Trade Association’s Organic Fraud Prevention Solutions program. Organic Cotton Certified organic cotton stands out as a safer choice for the environment, farmers and consumers alike because it’s cultivated without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, as prohibited by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). Organic certification ensures adherence to strict environmental and ethical standards, promoting biodiversity, soil health and fair labor practices. This results in a healthier, more sustainable fabric that minimizes exposure to toxic chemicals. PLA From Non-GMO Sugarcane Plant-based PLA (polylactic acid) is a fiber derived from plant sugars, typically sourced from non-GMO sugarcane. As a plant-based alternative to petroleum-derived synthetics, PLA helps reduce reliance on fossil fuels while offering a lightweight, resilient material that performs well in bedding applications. By using responsibly sourced plant inputs rather than conventional plastics, PLA supports a more sustainable material system while maintaining the comfort and durability expected in modern sleep products.

FAQs
What is PLA?
PLA stands for polylactic acid, a plant-based fiber typically made from sugars derived from non-GMO sugarcane. In bedding, it offers a lightweight, resilient alternative to conventional petroleum-based synthetic fills.
If PLA is a plastic, will it release microplastics?
PLA is technically a type of plastic, but unlike conventional synthetics such as polyester, it’s made from plant sugars rather than petroleum. While all fibers can gradually break down with heavy wear over time, especially plastics, our PLA is used inside the pillow and protected by multiple organic cotton encasements, so it isn’t directly exposed during normal use. PLA offers a healthier alternative to petroleum-based synthetic fills and can help reduce reliance on materials commonly associated with microplastics.
What are the benefits of a PLA pillow?
A PLA pillow offers lightweight, gentle support with a soft, airy feel. It’s a great option for sleepers who want the fluffiness of a down or down-alternative style pillow while choosing materials made with plant-based inputs instead of conventional petroleum-based synthetics or animal products.
How does PLA performance compare to petroleum-based down-alternatives?
PLA performs similarly to many conventional down-alternative fills (just with healthier materials), offering a soft feel with lightweight support. Like many down-alternative styles, it’s designed to feel fluffy and adaptable rather than dense or highly structured, making it a comfortable option for sleepers who enjoy a traditional pillow feel.
How do I care for Naturepedic's Organic Cotton/PLA Pillow?
Machine wash and dry the removable outer encasement using gentle, natural cleaners. Do not bleach. The inner encasement and fill should be spot cleaned only and must be fully dry before use. For freshness, you may occasionally air out your pillow. Fluff regularly to maintain its shape and loft. Using a pillow protector can help keep your pillow clean and extend its lifespan.
Does this pillow sleep hot?
This pillow is designed with breathable materials, including an organic cotton fabric and a lightweight PLA fill, to help promote a more comfortable sleep environment. Individual temperature preferences vary, but many sleepers appreciate PLA’s airy feel and moisture-wicking ability compared to denser foam pillows.
What type of sleeper is a PLA pillow best for?
A PLA pillow is a great fit for sleepers who prefer a soft, fluffy pillow with gentle support rather than a dense, contouring feel. It can work well for a variety of sleep positions, especially for back sleepers, stomach sleepers and kids. Side sleepers may prefer a loftier pillow.
