It offers “bottomless” pressure relief for your body. Whether
you are on your back or side, you will have less pressure on more
inches of Talalay latex. Did you know when you lay on your side,
your shoulders and hips have 7 times more pressure on them than when
you lay on your back? Pressure relief is important to your muscles
and it keeps the blood flowing to your extremities so you don’t have
numb fingers, hands and arms. But more importantly, your body
responds to pressure by moving during the night which will likely
lessen the quality of your sleep.
It offers “uplifting” support for your body.Your
body needs support. It needs it for ideal body alignment and ideal
spinal alignment. The benefit of good support is good posture. We
love the phrase, better posture at night equals better posture
during the day. Talalay latex offers an effect that is not found
with traditional bedding materials. Talalay latex is uplifting and
it is also pressure relieving. All other materials in a mattress are
either one or the other, but not both. Most people think they need a
firm bed, but that is only partially true. They need a bed with
strong support, but they also need a bed that offers pressure relief
on top of that. Firm on the bottom and soft on top is probably a
more ideal formula.
It offers a “resilient” natural rubber construction.Most
people want a mattress to last a long time. It is a big investment.
Simply put, you can buy an $1,000 mattress three times over the
years or you can buy one $3,000 mattress and have it last 15 years.
Talalay latex is incredibly resilient. The easiest way to understand
that Talalay latex lasts longer is to understand that Talalay latex
is a rubber not a poly foam. Rubber is more resilient. It’s the
nature of the material.

The Talalay Advantage
Do you know what’s inside your mattress? When you have a Talalay latex mattress,
the answer is simple; 100% Talalay latex. Every Talalay latex mattress starts
out as a tree. We harvest the liquid latex from the tropical Hevea brasiliensis
tree and turn it into the finest mattresses, using eco-friendly production
methods at our manufacturing facility in Shelton, CT.
Talalay latex mattresses are more breathable, resilient and offer unmatched
support and pressure relief; the key elements to getting the best night’s sleep
you have ever had! You never have to compromise comfort because we offer a full
spectrum of “feels” from firm to ultra-plush. Each bed is made by hand and put
through rigorous quality testing before it enters your bedroom.
Invest in quality. Invest in the environment. Choose Talalay.
6
Reasons to Choose Talalay Latex
It’s Healthy
Our Talalay latex is
Oeko-Tex certified
as Class I, the highest rating possible. This certification verifies our
products are free from harmful substances and is even safe for babies. Very
few latex or foam producers in the world meet the standards of this
independent, third-party certification. Even our adhesives are water-based
and free of solvents.
It’s Breathable
Mattresses and pillows made of Talalay latex breathe up to seven times
better than other types of latex or foam products, allowing for cooler
sleep. The materials in most mattresses and pillows don’t allow body heat to
dissipate, which can interrupt your sleep, but Talalay latex has a
breathable design and cell structure that creates a temperature neutral
environment.
It’s Hypoallergenic
Talalay latex is ideal for people with allergies and asthma. It is naturally
mold, mildew and dust mite resistant and is inherently antibacterial and
antifungal.
It’s Environmentally Friendly
The Talalay process features natural, biodegradable ingredients that come
from renewable resources and water-based raw materials: natural latex, air
and water. The rubber trees are not harmed in the latex harvesting process.
In fact, they are productive for 25 years, absorbing carbon dioxide from the
atmosphere and helping to reduce greenhouse gases. We are also mindful of
our energy and water consumption during the manufacturing process. Our
manufacturing automation optimizes energy usage for the molding stage and
our state of the art factory features energy efficient lighting. Our
multi-stage washer has been engineered so it minimizes the amount of water
consumed without reducing the quality of the finished product.
It’s Made in the USA
Our manufacturing facility is based in Shelton, CT, USA.
It Doesn’t Off-Gas
Talalay doesn’t off-gas like synthetic foam or polyurethane. You may notice
the “new bed smell” of the latex when it first

Buckeye Latex Natural Mattresses
Talalay vs. Dunlop
Not all latex is created equal. Talalay and Dunlop are the two processes used in
mattress production. The Dunlop process was developed in 1929 and was the first
method used to produce latex material for bedding.
As technology progressed, the Talalay process was developed by the
Talalay
family during World War II. The Talalay process is significantly more complex
and costly, but produces softer, more buoyant and luxurious finished products.
So why is there such a difference? The Talalay process takes four times longer
than Dunlop with two additional process steps—vacuum and flash freezing—which
improve the consistency, quality and feel of the finished latex.
The vacuum evenly distributes the latex throughout the mold, allowing us to
create precise and varied feels in the finished Talalay latex. A mattress is
made more firm or plush based on how much latex is poured into the mold. With
the Dunlop process there is little ability to vary the feel of the finished
product because the liquid latex is poured onto a conveyor belt resulting in a
dense piece of latex every time. The only way to soften the feel of Dunlop latex
is to add “fillers” into the liquid latex formula, which can result in solid
latex that is flaky and breaks down quickly.
The flash freezing step gives Talalay its consistent feel. Liquid latex is a
suspension of rubber particles in water, like a shaken snow globe. Flash
freezing prevents the latex particles from settling to the bottom while gelling
into a solid product. This means that the resulting piece of solid Talalay latex
has the same consistent feel from top to bottom, and side to side. The Dunlop
process doesn’t utilize a freeze step. Therefore, the rubber particles settle to
the bottom while the liquid latex is gelling into a solid form, resulting in a
variation of feel from top to bottom.
Think of Talalay latex like a chocolate soufflé; although the process is long,
the end product is a buoyant, airy, complex delight. Dunlop latex is more like a
pound cake; tasty, but dense and flat in comparison.

This allows any amount of Latex to be evenly distributed throughout the mold
creating precise and varied firmness with the finished Latex. The more liquid
Latex thatand poured into the mold the firmer the resulting solid Latex.
Therefore, if less liquid Latex is used, a softer more supple piece of Latex
results.
This differs from Dunlop in that Dunlop process has very little ability to vary
the firmness or feel of the finished solid product while maintaining its
structural integrity. The liquid formula is poured onto a belt and you get the
same, dense piece of Latex every time. The only way to soften the feel of Dunlop
Latex is to add "fillers" into the liquid Latex formula which results in solid
Latex that is flaky and breaks down quickly.
Step#3: FLASH FREEZE#0150;
This provides TALALAY with its uniquely consistent characteristic. Liquid Latex
is a suspension of rubber particles in water, like a shaken snow globe. Flash
freezing prevents the Latex particles from settling to the bottom while gelling
into a solid product. This means that the resulting piece of solid TALALAY Latex
has the same consistent feel from top to bottom.
This differs from Dunlop because Dunlop process does not utilize a freeze step.
Therefore, the rubber particles settle to the bottom while the liquid Latex is
gelling into a solid form, like a snow globe, resulting in a variation of feel
from top to bottom. This is not recognizable if the Dunlop Latex is used as a
bottom layer of a mattress but can cause problems if Dunlop pieces are used for
pillows or as top layers of a mattress.CONCLUSION-
The TALALAY process takes four times longer than Dunlop with two additional
process steps that improve the consistency, quality and feel of the finished
Latex.
A simple analogy:TALALAY
Latex is like a chocolate souffl#233;; although the process is long, your end
product is a buoyant, airy, complex delight. Dunlop Latex is more like a tray of
brownies; tasty, but dense and flat in comparison.
Even though they’re both latex, there are significant differences
between our Talalay latex and Dunlop latex. They’re manufactured using
different processes; it takes 14 hours to make a Talalay latex mattress
core, but less than one hour to make a Dunlop mattress core.
But the most important differences are benefits to you. Here are six
ways Talalay latex better serves you:
Breathability Talalay latex is FOUR TIMES more breathable than Dunlop Process
latex. Why? Talalay latex is aerated and has a large cell structure.
Dunlop latex is denser latex and has a small cell structure.
Pressure Relief Talalay latex is 33% more pressure relieving than Dunlop latex. Why?
The vacuum process used in making Talalay latex allows for the latex
to stretch like a rubber band so it conforms to your body. Dunlop
latex is a poured process that creates latex which is less flexible.
The rubber is more like the rubber in an eraser.
Durability Talalay latex is THREE TIMES more resilient than Dunlop latex. Why?
The Talalay latex process creates a round cell structure. As the
latex is compressed, a round cell structure does not break itself
down. The Dunlop Process creates a snowflake cell structure. As you
might imagine, as you compress a snowflake cell structure, the
material breaks down.
Consistency Talalay latex is the same feel from top to bottom and consistent
from side to side. Dunlop process latex is softer on top and firmer
on the bottom. Why? The Talalay process uses flash freezing that
prevents the particles from settling after curing. Because there is
no freezing in the Dunlop process, particles setting in the latex
during curing creating firmness on the bottom.
Clean Talalay latex can wash out more proteins (which is a primary cause
of latex allergies) than Dunlop latex. Why? The Talalay latex
process uses a five-stage fresh water rinse process.
Support Talalay latex provides not only pressure relief, but also support.
Why? Talalay latex is a two dimensional material. It offers support
and pressure relief. Dunlop Process latex is a one-dimensional
material. It primarily offers pressure relief similar to foam.
Both Talalay latex and Memory Foam are marketed as the premium mattress
materials, but they are very different. Talalay latex is a rubber. Memory Foam is a foam, which doesn’t
provide both support and pressure relief. Talalay latex rubber is a natural material derived from the rubber
tree. Memory foam is a synthetic material and is a petroleum-based
product. Talalay latex rubber has a breathable design and cell structure that
provides a temperature neutral environment. Memory foam is a dense
material, which needs heat to activate its pressure relieving
quality. It usually sleeps warmer. You “sleep on” Talalay latex rubber and it has an uplifting effect.
You “sleep in” memory foam which provides a “sinking” effect.
Talalay latex rubber is two dimensional material. It is both
supportive by being uplifting and is also pressure relieving. Most
memory foam mattresses use memory foam in the pressure relief layer
and traditional poly foam in the support layer. Talalay latex rubber is “bottomless.” Even when you lay on your
side, your body does not “bottom out” into a hard layer in the
mattress or on the foundation. Memory foam allows you to bottom out
onto what is underneath it. Talalay latex rubber is a fast response material. When you move, it
immediately responds to your new position. Memory foam is a slow
response material. Talalay latex rubber is hypoallergenic and does not off-gas. Memory
foam is a petroleum-based product. Talalay latex rubber is extremely durable. Because it is vulcanized,
it is the most resilient material available in a mattress.
Talalay latex rubber is inherently antibacterial and antifungal.

The difference is in the chemicals. Many mattress adhesives contain a
variety of toxic chemicals. Solvent-based mattress adhesives are filled
with 48 toxic chemicals and foam has an additional 7. A Talalay latex
mattress is just that, 100% Talalay. Our beds are made with water-based adhesives
and contain 6
non-toxic chemicals (acrylate resins, diphenyl
diisocyanate, Phenol-melamine resins, Phenol-urea, Polyvinyl acetate and
waxes styrene- butadiene copolymer) and 3
natural materials (fats, hevea brasiliensis milk,
and water.)
You
spend about 1/3 of your year in bed, so it’s important to know what
you’re sleeping on.
The manufacturing process does not use
solvents and does not damage the ozone layer. Talalay Global’s Talalay
latex is certified by Oeko-Tex (Europe’s
highest environmental consumer product standard) to be free of harmful
substances or chemicals.
Talalay latex rubber is made using an eco-friendly production
method. The
Talalay process features natural, biodegradable ingredients that
come from renewable resources and water-based raw materials: natural
latex, air and water. Latex is a rubber-based material that comes
from the tropical hevea brasiliensis tree. These trees have a
25-year productive life and they have a strong effect on the
environment as they quickly absorb carbon dioxide from the
atmosphere and help reduce greenhouse emissions.
Talalay latex rubber is made with energy and water conservation in
mind.
Energy: Talalay Global’s manufacturing automation
optimizes energy usage for the molding stage (freezing and
vulcanization portion) of the Talalay process. The state of the
art factory in Shelton, CT, USA also features energy efficient
lighting.
Water: Talalay Global has engineered its multi-stage
washer to minimize the amount of water consumed.

The Talalay Global Latex Foam Company
Founded over 35 years ago, Talalay Global is the largest producer of Talalay in
the world and the only manufacturer in the United States. Our Talalay is used in
millions of the finest mattresses, pillows and toppers around the globe.
Talalay Global was literally started in the basement of a local VFW in
Connecticut by two friends who worked together and lost their jobs following a
devastating factory fire. With grit, determination, and a lot of support from
their families and community, their facility soon grew to 15,000 square feet and
produced its first latex pillow within two years. After 18 years of success, the
company reinvested and rebuilt the worlds’ finest, state-of-the-art facility in
Shelton, Connecticut where all of our Talalay is produced today.
Talalay Global is based on a very simple concept. Make Talalay latex products
that provide the best sleep experience in the world. Every one of our employees
know that they are changing lives, one story at a time. Every day, our company
philosophy is supported by our actions. We are driven by high quality standards
and we stand behind every product we produce; we never settle for anything less
than the best. Once you have slept on a Talalay latex mattress, you won’t have to take our word
for how superior the product is. You will forever be a believer because it will
be the most uplifting sleep experience you have ever had!
“Our entire organization
has been designed to foster ingenuity and creativity from initial product
development to finished product and partner support. We are leading the
advancement of Talalay latex bedding products through the development of
innovative Talalay Global formulations, product designs and partner training.
Talalay Global puts the power of transparent information in the hands of
consumers so they can make informed purchasing decisions. Helping people
understand the many differences within the Talalay latex world, from cost and
quality to sleep benefits, will clarify the “muddy” waters of available latex
information and allow consumers to make their best decisions for themselves.”
Our products are manufactured with pride being made in
the USA
Latex Mattresses
All of our TALALAY products are made with Natural TALALAY Latex Rubber, which
starts as sap from the Havea brasiliensis tree. These rubber trees have a 25
year productive life and a strong positive effect on the environment as they
quickly absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and help reduce greenhouse
emissions.
Our TALALAY process features natural, biodegradable ingredients that come from
renewable resources and water-based raw materials: natural Latex, air, and
water. Our process does not use solvents and does not damage the ozone layer.
Our clean and green approach carries through to our end products: TALALAY Latex
contains no toxic chemicals while standard Poly Foam and Memory Foam (visco) can
contain as many as seven toxic chemicals.*
OEKO-TEX CERTIFIED
The
Oeko-Tex Standard 100 (link to oeko website) is the leading global testing and
certification process that ensures textile materials and home furnishing
products do not contain harmful substances or pose a health risk to consumers.
Very few Latex or foam producers in the world meet the standards of this
independent, third-party certification.
All Latex International TALALAY Latex products are certified OEKO-TEX Class 100;
the healthiest classification.
This means that our products do not contain allergenic materials that form
carcinogenic arylamines of the MAK-groups III A1 and III A2 (see the Oeko-Tex
website for a list of chemicals included in these groups,link to oeko),
pesticides and chlorinated phenoles, heavy metals or formaldehyde. Our TALALAY
also meets the standard for skin friendly pH and is free from chloro-organic
carriers and biologically active finishes.
In other words, Latex International TALALAY is the healthiest material you can
sleep on!
PRESSURE MAPPING
Latex International (LI) TALALAY Latex provides 33% more Pressure Relief than
leading Memory foam.
Pressure mapping tests the amount of pressure your body registers on a selected
surface. This technology is widely used throughout the bedding industry to
determine the quantity of pressure that a mattress or pillow creates on your
body.
Pressure from your mattress and/or pillow prevents your muscles from relaxing
which makes it difficult to fall asleep and impairs circulation causing you to
toss - turn which makes it difficult to stay asleep.
Therefore, the less pressure your mattress and pillow produce on your body the
easier it is to fall asleep and the more complete sleep you achieve throughout
the night which leads to more energetic and productive days.
DURABILITY
Latex International TALALAY Latex is 4x more durable than other Latex and 20x
more durable than traditional bedding foams.
At Latex International, we continually ensure that our formulas will last the
test of time. Using the standardized ASTM Cornell Indentation test we prove that
our TALALAY outlasts any other material used for bedding today.
This is the most rigorous and material damaging ASTM standardized test that
exists for bedding components. While Latex International TALALAY performs
flawlessly over a period of 12 hours representing decades of use, other Latex's
break down much more quickly and foams such as memory foam and polyurethane foam
actually tear apart within minutes.
The strength of our material allows LI to match any warranty that retail stores
choose to offer on their products and assures maximum value for consumers.
BREATHABILITY
Latex International TALALAY Latex breathes up to 7x better than other Latex or
foams for cooler sleep.
One of the fastest growing concerns with bedding today is sleeping hot. This is
a legitimate concern because not only is it uncomfortable, sleeping too hot
interrupts the quality of our sleep as we continuously move to find a cooler
spot. This can occur from both mattresses and pillows.
The heightened awareness of sleeping hot is primarily due to increased use of
Memory Foam in mattresses. Memory Foam has a collapsible cell structure that
traps body heat and radiates it back at us resulting in uncomfortable
perspiration.
TALALAY Latex is sometimes confused with Memory Foam because of extensive Memory
Foam advertising. Nothing could be farther from the truth. The TALALAY Latex
rubber cell structure resists collapsing and allows air to circulate. This
breathability whisks away our body heat preventing mattresses and pillows from
becoming an oven.
Latex International has gone one step further and developed TALALAY GL which is
a unique formulation of TALALAY Latex with special phase change properties.
TALALAY GL actually helps regulate the consistency of body temperature for a
temperature neutral sleeping experience.
BEDDING ALLERGENS
- Mold, Mildew, Bacteria - Dust Mites
- LI TALALAY Latex is Mold, Mildew - Bacteria proof and Dust Mite resistant
Most people don't consider their mattress as a contributing source for
respiratory problems and allergic reactions. We think of our bed as a "safe
haven". The reality can be much more yucky.
Mold, mildew, bacteria and dust mites love our beds - pillows. We shed millions
of microscopic skin cells and perspire nearly 1 pint of water every night. The
microscopic skin cells and water vapor fall through the weave of our linens and
mattress cover landing on the cushioning layers below where they become a food
and water source for mold, mildew, bacteria and dust mites - it can't be
avoided, and it's gross.
Whether your "landing pad" cushion layer is hospitable to these infestations is
the controlling factor to the amount of hazardous dust created from your
mattress - pillow.
Foams such as Memory Foam - Polyurethane Foam are environments where these
contaminants thrive, so if they compose the top cushion layers of your mattress
you may have a problem.
Independent testing shows that Latex International TALALAY Latex is mold, mildew
- bacteria proof- these organisms simply won't grow on it. Furthermore, itand
dust mite resistant so these critters will prefer to be elsewhere, not right
next to your face as you sleep.
TOXIN FREE
Try to find a healthier bedding material, we dare you.
In a perfect world all bedding products would be as safe as Latex
International's TALALAY Latex. The reality is that todayand technology for
producing foams like Memory Foam or Polyurethane Foam simply aren't.
Todayand foams may contain any or all of the following, each are known
carcinogens.
Tetrachhloroethane
Acetone
Dimethylformamide
Methyl Benzene(tolunlene)
Methyl Dianiline
Tolune-diisocynanate
Vinilideine Chloride
Latex International TALALAY Latex contains none of these.
Latex ALLERGENS
Zero cases of allergic reactions to LI products have been reported.
Latex International has been making TALALAY pillows and mattress components for
over 35 years. Every year millions of products are sold using Latex
International TALALAY.
The FDA tracks allergic reactions to Latex products in the USA. Not once has
there been a report of an allergic reaction attributed to any of our TALALAY
products.
CONSISTENCY TESTING: MATTRESSES - PILLOW
Latex
International is the only Latex producer that tests every block of mattress
material in 9 separate areas to insure consistency throughout each piece. This
means that retailers and consumers can be sure that products delivered or
brought home will match the products experienced in the showroom every single
time.
Because pillows are not able to be measured in the same way as block mattress
material, we electronically weigh and then hand inspect every pillow for quality
and consistency. This is an extra time consuming step in our process,but
it is the only way to be completely sure that consumers receive the very highest
quality pillows every single time.

Our Story
During a business tripthrough
Europe in 1987,Henry
Krausstopped at a
small hotel in Switzerland. There he discovered one of the most comfortable
mattresses he had ever encountered. This came as quite a surprise to him, as he
had already been in the business of sleep products for some years and had
invented and assisted in the development of many products.
After waking up "feeling wonderful", Henry Kraus decided he just had to stay
another night to see if it was really "this mattress or not". He decided it was
worth another night's stay. Again, he woke up feeling like he just had the best
night's sleep possible. He then soon discovered what was in this mattress:
latex foam.
He soon found out that there was one USA manufacturer that makes latex foam. He
soon ordered this latex foam, and upholstered the mattress, and branded it as
the Latexpedic Mattress. Soon the Latexpedic brand became the flagship mattress
for the Electropedic Adjustable Bed.
In 1992, the production of the Latexpedic Mattress was taken over by Henry
Kraus's sons, Lloyd and Philip Kraus. Many innovations and refinements have
been made over the years, from our original
7" Latex Mattress;
especially the introduction of the 9" High Profile and
THE 11" ULTIMATE.
We believe THE ULTIMATE is the highest quality and most comfortable mattress in
the World! We actually do not know how to make it better!!
Each mattress continues to be made with the same old-style traditions and
standards of excellence and craftsmanship: Today it seems that Latexpedic is
one of the very few manufacturers that makes each mattress ALL latex (not half a
mattress like most manufacturers today); and completely reversible, quilted on
both sides, and each available in (4) four different firmnesses: Soft, Regular
Firm, Extra Firm and Ultra Firm.
We are still dedicated to getting you the best night's sleep possible. We feel
that we make each customer their own individual mattress depending on their
needs. We sincerely try to help people find the right mattress and the right
firmness for personal back, neck, hip and shoulder issues.
This is what we do.
