A mattress is a pad or mat that is usually placed on top of a bed where we sleep or lie. A mattress can be filled with different materials like, straw and feathers, futons, air or water, inner spring core, latex or visco-elastic foam.

Why Foam Mattress is Popular

Foam mattress is so popular nowadays because it provides comfort and overall body support than using springs alone. It takes the shape of sleeper’s body and when you remove the body, the foam will go back to its original shape. It varies in quality and price.

The Latex foam

There are two methods that are used to make latex foam.

• Dunlop method is the traditional method for making natural latex (firmer and more supportive)
• Talalay method is the newest method for making synthetic latex (softer and less supportive).

The Natural Choice

Natural latex is made from rubber tree sap, it undergo heating and vulcanization process (conversion of liquid latex to solid state).

• It is hypoallergenic, anti-bacterial and anti-microbial.
• It has high elasticity and resiliency.
• It conforms to the body shape and temperature sensitive.

The Memory foam
