What is a Latex Mattress?
Latex mattresses are among the most popular mattresses. They have good durability (some owners still sleep comfortably on their latex mattresses after 12-15 years) and are more comfortable than memory foam mattresses.
A latex mattress can be fully made of latex or also have layers of other foams, or have latex and innerspring coils. Latex is a type of rubber that can be natural or synthetic. Natural latex is harvested from rubber trees and, therefore, natural latex mattresses are eco-friendly.
Here are the main types of latex you can find in a mattress:
- Natural latex: manufactured from the sap of a rubber tree with the addition of curing agents. There are two types of natural latex: Dunlop and Talalay. The most expensive type of latex.
- Synthetic latex: can be made of various materials, but is usually made from a special plastic. It's less durable than natural latex and is a better option for those with a latex allergy.
- Blended latex: a mix of natural and synthetic latex. It's still less durable than natural latex but more durable than synthetic latex.
Latex mattresses are springy and bounce back, but at the same time, they do not conform close enough to cut off the airflow. Therefore, latex mattresses are naturally cool and won't disturb your sleep. However, some people find them to responsive as you can feel your partner's movements during the night. Latex mattresses are also good for an adjustable base as they're flexible.
