Sleeping On Natural Latex
Learn about what Latex actually is and how it can transform the way your body is supported as you sleep.
Talalay latex is well established as one of the finest natural materials to sleep on in the world and is a premium bedding material renowned for its luxurious feel and exceptional support.
Crafted from the sap of rubber trees , (Hevea Brasiliensis) grown in managed sustainable plantations around the world. This natural latex undergoes a unique manufacturing process that sets it apart from other mattress materials.
During the Talalay process, the latex sap is whipped into a frothy consistency and poured into a mold. The mold is then vacuum-sealed to evenly distribute the latex and eliminate air bubbles. Next, the mold is flash-frozen to stabilize the latex before it's baked in a large oven. This combination of freezing and baking results in a consistent cell structure throughout the latex, ensuring unparalleled comfort and support.
The finished product is a Talalay latex mattress that conforms to your body shape, providing personalized support and pressure relief. Its buoyant sensation cradles you in comfort, while its breathability helps regulate your body temperature for a cooler, more restful sleep.
