I was just curious.. is the mattress/foam "vegan" and doesnt contain animal skin?

I did some research but could not find information for the popular Sweden made tempurpedic as well as the American product of tempurpedic.

It's synthetic, it doesn't have animal skin.

My mom adores her Tempurpedic bed.

Apparently, it's mostly plastic:

I looked into getting one a few years ago.
They are synthetic so no animal products I know of.
There are a few different types of memory foam if I remember correctly & some are not as good as others.
We decided on a 'Tempura' one as they seemed the bedt but unfortunately it was outside our price range!
I really want one still!
