Our Talalay process is a highly controlled, sophisticated latex
manufacturing process that produces the highest quality, most
consistent latex available in the world. An alternative technology,
known as the Dunlop process, is the most commonly used
production method globally, it creates a firmer product.
|
The
major difference between the two processes is what
happens in the mold just prior to the initial latex
curing stage. In the Talalay process, only a small
amount of latex compound is poured into the mold.
Air is extracted to perfectly distribute the foamed
liquid inside the mold and to create a consistent
round, open cell structure. The mattress core is
flash frozen to lock the cell structure in place and
to prevent the particles from settling.
Talalay
Latex cost more to process than the Dunlop Latex
Process.

In
the Dunlop process, the molds are filled to
the rim, air is not extracted, and there is no
freeze stage. Therefore, the latex cell structure is
less “airy”. Gravity takes over settling the
particles to create a more dense product than
Talalay latex. Talalay latex is available in a much
wider firmness range so it can provide enhanced
comfort choice for consumers around the globe.
