Does this mattress need to be sprayed with BDE to meet flame retardency requirements? BDE is nasty stuff and has been found to collect in the breast tissuue of women. Scott Jordan Furnitire has a mattress that is chemical free, does not off gas and does not need to be sprayed. On an aside, Tempurpedic's claim to fame is that it was developed by NASA but they never used it as they found the off gassing to be too toxic within the confines of an enclosed environment like a spacecraft !
