Talatech® 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.
Latex International’s mattress components and pillow
products feature Talatech® latex which is produced using the
eco-friendly Talalay process.
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.
Conservation Conscious
Energy:
Our factory manufacturing automation allows us to
optimize energy usage for the molding stage (freezing
and baking portion) of the Talalay process. The factory
also features energy efficient lighting.
Water: LI
