Eco Friendly &
Chemical Free Organic Mattresses
There
are many reasons why people are choosing organic mattresses instead of
the old conventional synthetic type. For most, health is the
priority even when sleeping and although these mattresses might be quite
more expensive, they are still good investments. A good night
sleep without suffering from allergic reactions and body aches in the
morning can make for a more productive, clear minded person throughout
his or her day.
There has been recent discussions about organic foods versus non-organic
foods and while many of us realize how important it is to eat healthy,
we tend to forget the importance of a good night sleep and how it
effects our overall health an well-being. However, many people do not realize that
not only is the quality of the food and sleep extremely important, it is also
important to keep our lungs clear from pollutants and chemicals while we
sleep 6 to 8 hours a day.
At

we provide a wide selection of mattresses to accommodate your
life-style. Natural Latex,
Organic Wool, Organic Cotton, Organic Bamboo, to name a few, are among

Talalay Process
The Talalay
process is one of the methods used in producing natural
latex
foam rubber.
Latex originates from the milk of
hevea
brasiliensis trees, commonly known as the
rubber
tree.
The natural base is boiled in order to
homogenize the liquid, it is then introduced to a mold, where it is
sealed and
vacuumed
to eliminate any unstable air bubbles. While the mold is setting it is
flash-frozen to stabilize the cell structure. Finally,
carbon dioxide
gas is pumped into the chamber and heated to
cure
the rubber. This process delivers the most consistent high quality
product; which is why Talalay latex is slightly more expensive.

Dunlop Process
The
Dunlop process has been used in latex manufacturing since 1929 and is
nearly identical to the Talalay process with a couple exceptions.
First, the Talalay process requires the liquid to be boiled, whereas with the
Dunlop process, the liquid is whipped into froth within a
centrifuge.
The reason for this is simple; Dunlop latex is not homogenous, therefore
boiling is not necessary. The other difference is that the Dunlop
process does not require flash-freezing; instead it only requires to be
heated in order to
cure
the rubber.
Natural sediments in the latex settle downward, yielding a slightly
firmer layer on the bottom of the mattress.
