Latex in its purest form is the sap collected from the bottom of the rubber tree and is now known as one of the best mattress fillings on the market today. Latex mattresses can contain Natural latex or synthetic latex and are possibly one of the most comfortable sleeping surfaces currently available.

Because of the manufacturing process used to create latex, it has some truly astounding properties. For example, unlike memory foam latex is resistant to impressions left by the body and instantly takes the shape of the human body, changing to your every contour and giving you the ultimate in support where you need it the most and the comfort required to get a good night’s sleep. Latex is also extremely durable and will regain its shape quickly every time, meaning that a latex mattress will last much longer than any other mattress.

Other benefits of latex are that because it is made from foam there are no springs, which means that the mattress is completely silent. One of the tell tale signs that your open coil or pocket spring mattress is ready to be replaced is that it starts to creak and crack as the springs are beginning to get worn away, and this can seriously disrupt your sleep. With a completely silent latex mattress, this isn’t a problem.

Latex also has some amazing hypoallergenic, anti microbial, dust mite resistant and anti bacterial properties. Because of its open cell structure and the fact that latex as a material is naturally hypoallergenic, bacteria such as staphylococcus and other pests such as dust mites can’t possibly live in it, which is fantastic news for allergy sufferers and for anyone else who is worried about the air they breathe whilst they are asleep.
