Why Talalay Latex


Why Talalay Latex is the Perfect Sleep Surface

Superior Comfort and Support

Talalay Latex naturally conforms to the body providing optimal orthopedic support. The unique pinhole design and the Talalay Process result in an open-cell structure providing breathability throughout.

Pressure Relief

Because foam springs back immediately, Latex eliminates restricted blood flow in high pressure areas, terminating the constant tossing and turning you may suffer from. Talalay Latex is manufactured in eight different density levels, custom picked to create a mattress for any body type.

Exceptional Durability

Talalay Latex has an unsurpassed comfort life compared to other bedding materials, lasting 20 years or more! Talalay Latex won't create body impressions after prolonged use, eliminating constant turning and flipping of your mattress. Also, Latex pillows never require pumping up or fluffing in the middle of the night.

Talalay Process vs. Dunlop Process

The Talalay manufacturing process provides for better density control resulting in a consistent feel across the surface of the mattress.

Talalay Latex vs. Memory Foam

Talalay Latex

  • Is a natural rubber-based material.

  • Always maintains its density whether in a cool or warm environment.

  • Is an open cell and due to the pin core process, latex is breathable resulting in a neutral temperature environment.

Memory Foam

  • Is a polyurethane or a plastic based material.

  • Is body temperature sensitive. It requires body heat to activate the memory characteristic. In a cool environment memory foam is firm, in a warm environment memory foam is soft.

  • Retains body heat potentially creating a hot sleep surface.



Best of All, Latex Supports Your Health

Latex foam is inherently antimicrobial. Independent laboratory testing shows that Talalay Latex inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew in addition to being hypoallergenic and dust mite resistant. Latex supports a healthy body and a healthy environment, using a manufacturing process that is environmentally friendly.

Technology and the Talalay Process

The Talalay process begins with the tropical rubber tree, nature’s source for the perfect night’s sleep. Astate-the-art eco-friendly process transforms this renewable resource into the world’s finest Talalay latex foam.

6 Step Manufacturing Process

1. Compounding: A combination of liquid latex, soap and rubber curing agents are mixed together in atemperature controlled stainless steel tank.

2. Molding: The latex comound for each mattress and pillow is cast in an aluminum mold where a vacuum is created ensuring consistent density throughout the product. The foam is frozen to -20 degrees and then heated to 220 degrees to begin the vulcanization process.

3. Washing: Every pillow and mattress is washed in a multiple stage washer to remove any residual soaps and curing agents using fresh water.

4. Drying: They are then dried to complete the curing process and remove all residual moisture.

5. Quality Testing: Every mattress undergoes a nine-point ILD (Indentation Load Deflection) test to ensure all cores meet stringent quality standards for consistent density.

6. Fabrication: Cores are cut, constructed and covered to meet the individual needs of each customer.
