Latex mattresses are made with latex, a porous, sustainable and biodegradable foam product derived from the tropical rubber tree. Latex foam is significantly heavier and denser than synthetic foams, thus providing an enhanced level of comfort and support. Latex mattresses resist impressions and will last for years without sagging or flattening out. A quality-made latex mattress will provide you with years of firm yet well cushioned support for the body’s many pressure points, such as well as the spine, neck, shoulders and limbs. One good advantage of latex mattresses is that they do not transfer motion, making them the ideal mattress choice for people who may be bothered by their partner’s shifting movements at night. more..
With millions of built-in tiny air bubbles, latex mattresses are very breathable, wicking away moisture and helping to maintain good air circulation. Naturally anti-microbial and hypo-allergenic, latex mattresses are also resistant to dust mites, mold and bacteria. Latex mattresses usually have a wrapping or layer of naturally fire-retardant wool as a safety feature.
