We live in an interesting era, where everything has so many alternatives and options to choose from, including your mattress. There are so many companies out there, offering all kinds of mattresses. Deciding which one is best for you may not always be a piece of cake. All types of mattresses have their own benefits, and different mattresses serve different purposes. To make your search for the perfect mattress for you and your family a little easier, we will look into latex mattresses today and what the benefits are when you use a natural latex mattress. The word ‘natural’ was used here consciously, because there are synthetic mattresses and we will also look into the differences between the two.
You maybe wondering what exactly a latex mattress is, what it is made of and how it becomes an end product. The primary material used in the production of latex mattresses are- latex. Natural Latex is a material that is obtained from the sap of rubber trees. Given the strength, feel and durability of latex, it may be difficult to believe that it is a natural material. The latex obtained is then processed to be made into a mattress. The most prevalent process involved in converting latex into mattress gives an end product called the Dunlop Mattress. The Dunlop mattress is the more predominant, simply because it is the least expensive to produce.
Now, you must know that all latex is not all natural. At a time when it was difficult to obtain natural rubber, the quest for a synthetic alternative began. The result was the development of a latex which was based on a synthetic polymer, made from polymerizing substances called Styrene and Butadiene. The final product made using this process was called the Styrene-Butadiene rubber, more often known as SBR. Most producers tend to use a mixture of both synthetic and natural latex to arrive at a perfect product.
Now that we know what a latex mattress is made of, let us look at how they will add value to your life.
Long-lasting resilience
A mattress is a big investment and you would want it to be of use to you for quite some time. A good quality latex mattress will last you for a minimum of ten years. This kind of durability, along with low maintenance is very difficult to come by in other materials. Read up about the maintenance of latex mattresses, to ensure they live a good, long life.
Gentle Support
Hardly any other material has been able to compete with the kind of support offered by natural latex mattresses. Latex mattresses are known to retain and regain its position almost immediately upon movement. This is to say that your body will be supported through and through the entire duration of your sleep. The gentle support that latex mattresses offer also relieves pain from all your pressure points. You wake up feeling relaxed and fresh.
Cooler Nights
Another advantage of natural latex mattresses is that they will not make you sleep warm, like a memory foam mattress tends to do. Latex has an uncluttered cell structure, which means that the material is more breathable and air flows freely in it. You can count on latex mattresses to have cooler nights, even with your comfortable blanket on.
Moisture resistant
Yet another advantage of latex having an open-cell structure is that they do not encourage unwarranted moisture buildup. This means that your mattress will not be a breeding ground to molds, mildews and bacterial colonies. After all, the place you sleep must be hygienic.
Eco-friendly
This goes without saying, but latex mattresses are all natural, and not detrimental to the health of our planet in any way. You can sleep easy and peacefully, knowing that you are not damaging the earth.
