Insider Facts
100% Latex Doesn't Exist
There is no 100% synthetic latex foam. There is no 100% natural latex foam. All latex foams need about 5% “other stuff” to make the liquid into foam.
WOW Factor
An all synthetic latex foam is less resilient and loses the “WOW” factor feel.
Consistency Issues
An all natural latex foam has consistency issues with most of the “green” latex core manufacturers in the world today. It is always best to check into their quality controls from the “tree to the sea”.
85% are Blended Latex
85% of the latex used in the world today for latex bedding is a blend of natural and synthetic latex. The blend offers the best of nature-made and man-made ingredients.
All Molded
Latex mattress cores are made in molds. Each size has its own mold. Avoid pieced together latex cores and toppers when possible. One piece king size cores and toppers eliminate vertical glue seams which may cause consumer complaints.
Beware Fillers in Latex Foam
Fillers are cheap non-latex additives that lower manufacturing costs and quality. Make your latex foam source certify that your latex components contain zero filler content. You will be grateful next year.
