How Are Latex Mattresses Made?

1
Making a Latex Mattress
2
Sap is collected from rubber trees and is a
natural and renewable resource.
3
There are two different manufacturing processes
used to create mattresses.
4

• Dunlop

In this method, the liquid latex is mixed to
create a foam.
5
The foam is put into a shaped mould or conveyor
and passed into a special oven. The mixture
solidifies before being passed on to a washing
station where residual liquid latex is removed.
6
The latex foam is dried and ready for use.
7

• Talalay

This manufacturing process produces latex with a
different texture to that of the Dunlop method.
8
The liquid is transferred into a shaped mould
and sealed closed.
9
A vacuum is used to evenly disperse the latex
throughout the mould
10
It is flash frozen and immediately flash heated
to solidify
11
Once cooled, the latex blocks are removed from
the mould and ready for use.
12
Natural latex mattresses go above and beyond in
providing sleepers with superior durability and
comfort.
