PFAS score
Casper · Mattress Protectors
Breathable Mattress Protector
Skip until Casper discloses coating chemistry or switches to PFAS-free water-resistant tech.
Casper's breathable mattress protectors use waterproof coatings to repel liquids, but the brand does not publicly disclose what chemistry achieves that protection. Waterproof textile treatments historically rely on PFAS; without transparency or third-party certification, the PFAS risk is unquantified.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 45% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
