Talatech® latex, the sleep product industry’s highest quality, most consistent, breathable and resilient comfort material available in the world, is a natural, environmentally friendly product for mattresses and pillows. Latex International’s mattress components and pillow products feature Talatech® latex which is produced using the eco-friendly Talalay process.

• The Talalay process features natural, biodegradable ingredients that come from renewable resources and water-based raw materials: natural latex, air and water.
  
• Natural latex is actually a rubber-based material that comes from the tropical hevea brasiliensis tree which is harvested to produce a resilient, cushioning foam that instantly conforms to every body contour for optimal comfort and support.
  
• Air is infused into the latex compound to create latex foam’s open cell structure that provides a cooler sleep surface.
  
• LI washes every mattress core using a 5 stage washer to ensure purity.
  

LI’s process does NOT use solvents. It does NOT damage the ozone layer.
We do not have to use scrubbers or external filtration as we do not emit harmful elements into the air. In fact, LI’s Talalay latex is certified by OEKO-TEX (Europe’s highest environmental consumer product standard) to be free of harmful substances or chemicals.

What makes our products so special? Our commitment to perfection: from the mixing of raw materials to final product testing and assembly. Our entire manufacturing facility features the latest technologies and molding systems that help create the most consistent and superior sleep products.

Our mattresses and pillows are manufactured in a unique eco-friendly process called Talalay: six steps that produce the most consistent and durable latex foam in the world. Every step of the process - from compounding to quality testing - is carefully monitored to assure out latex foam is the finest available.

No harmful byproducts are released and every product we make is cleansed in an exclusive five stage fresh water washer to ensure the removal of residual latex proteins and curing agents. 

LI is the only latex foam manufacturer in North America that transforms the milk of the rubber tree into the world’s finest latex foam. We are the supplier of choice for leading mattress and pillow companies around the world. Our exclusive, high tech manufacturing process and over 30 years of experience has set the world quality standard with Talatech® brand latex.

Finally, every product undergoes extensive quality testing to meet standards that far exceed our competitors:

• EVERY mattress core is tested in 9 different areas
• EVERY pillow is weighed and hand inspected
• EVERY mattress core and pillow is washed 5 times
