Natural Latex Mattresses Foam Eco-Technology

Talalay latex is nature's nighttime inspiration. Latex International's Talalay latex, the sleep product industry's highest quality, most consistent, breathable and resilient comfort material available in the world, is a natural, environmentally friendly product for mattresses and pillows.


The Natural Talalay process is an eco-friendly production method.

The Talalay process features natural, biodegradable ingredients that come from renewable resources and water-based raw materials: natural latex, air and water.

Natural latex is actually a rubber-based material that comes from the tropical hevea brasiliensis tree, which is harvested to produce a resilient, cushioning foam that instantly conforms to every body contour for optimal comfort and support.

Air is infused into the latex compound to create latex foam's open cell structure that provides a cooler sleep surface.

Latex International washes every mattress core using a 5-stage washer to ensure purity.

Compression Set Test for Latex Foam:

This test simulates the effect of body impressions on the latex after a person lies on the bed for extended periods of time. Latex mattress samples are clamped to 50% of their original thickness for 22 hours at 158 degree's F. When removed, the percent loss in thickness is measured. Higher values indicate a higher propensity for the product to take a body impression over time. LI’s Talatech® latex consistently outperforms imported latex.
