Natart Cribs: Prioritizing Structure and Air Quality

When discussing nursery centerpieces, Natart is a name that represents solidity. At baby enRoute, we recommend this brand to families who prioritize North American manufacturing and substantial construction in their Baby Furniture.

The decision to invest in Natart usually revolves around two key dimensions: material integrity and air quality awareness.

Dimension: The Solid Wood Difference

Many cribs use lightweight composites. Natart is often chosen for its use of solid wood (like beech or oak). Parents who value durability prioritize this because the joints and hardware hold up better over years of use—especially important if the crib is intended to convert into a double bed for a teenager later on.

Dimension: The Indoor Air Focus

We see a growing segment of parents focused on what their baby breathes. Natart's commitment to low-VOC finishes and glues is a major decision driver. Families choose this brand to minimize the "new furniture smell" (off-gassing) in the nursery, viewing it as a proactive step for their child's sleep environment.

Retailer Insight: The Upholstery Options

In our showroom, we often show parents the upholstered headboard panels. We observe that families looking for a "cozier" look gravitate here. The fabric panels (which can be cleaned) soften the look of the wooden bars, making the crib feel more like a bed and less like a cage, which appeals to design-focused parents.

Quick FAQ: Selection Logic

Q: Does it include the conversion rails?
A: Conversion kits are typically sold separately; we advise buying them at the same time as the crib to ensure color matching and availability later.

Q: Where is it made?
A: Natart furniture is manufactured in Canada, using Italian design principles, which is a key factor for families supporting local industry.
