As part of a recently announced green initiative, Six Flags Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SIXFQ), the world's largest regional theme park company, has made Anatomic Global's eco-friendly memory foam Ecomfort the official mattress of the flagship hotel property of Six Flags.

The Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Water Park, located across from The Great Escape Theme Park near Lake George, N.Y., is the company's first hotel to offer the green mattress to guests.

"Hotels and resorts are increasingly aware of what they can do to be kinder to the environment, evident by such efforts as laundering towels and changing linens upon request," said Anatomic Global President, Jeff Scorziell. "Now, many hotels are turning to green mattresses and finding that they deliver more comfort and innovation, as well."

In addition to bringing in 450 new mattresses to furnish the 200-suite hotel, Six Flags will utilize programmable thermostats to conserve energy and provide eco-friendly amenities for bathrooms, eco-friendly laundry detergents and cleaners, and corn-based serve ware for en-suite kitchens.

Both The Great Escape Lodge and theme park practice facility wide recycling programs making it easy for guests to recycle bottles, cans and paper goods. The Great Escape also is a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Green Power Partner, having earned its Green Energy certification by purchasing New York State wind energy.

Six Flags views the eco-friendly mattresses from Anatomic Global, Corona, Calif., as an example of its commitment to introduce everyday sustainability solutions in its parks.

"The addition of the Ecomfort Mattress to the Six Flags Great Escape Lodge provides our guests with both quality and comfort while perfectly aligning with our company's new green initiative," said Six Flags Great Escape Park President.

The Ecomfort Harmony will be available for purchase directly from the hotel rooms at $1,299 in queen size.

There has been a real commitment to going green in the business world. Very nice to see that Six Flags is trying to make a difference as well. Mattresses are a huge environment problem, from production to disposal. Time to start working on the issues. Way to go Six Flags. Doug Belleville
