WHAT IS AN ORGANIC MATTRESS?
\In recent decades, most mattresses have been made either with metal springs sandwiched between layers of polyurethane foam, or with just foam. In showrooms, salespeople typically focus on firmness, talking about the number of springs or the density of the foam. What they rarely bring up -- but what has become increasingly common knowledge among consumers -- is that polyurethane foam is made from petroleum, and that it can emit volatile organic compounds (V.O.C.'s), which have been linked to respiratory irritation and other health problems, according to both the Environmental Protection Agency and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
Latexpedic comes from the Hevea Brasilienis tree, originally native to the Amazon Jungles of Brazil. The first use of rubber was by the Olmecs, who centuries later passed on the knowledge of natural latex from the Hevea tree in 1600 BC to the ancient Mayans, who harvested latex to make rubber balls for the ancient Mesoamerican ballgames. Latex was symbolic of fertility, and was often burned, buried, or (fortunately for archaeology) laid in a sacrificial pool as an offering to various deities. Latex is white and milky in appearance, has an elastic consistency, and is removed from the tree through a process called "rubber tapping" (similarly, Opium is the milky latex obtained from the poppy.) Just two centuries ago, the Havea Brasillienis tree was exclusive to the Amazon Rainforest. It wasn't until the late 1800s that Heavea Brazilienis tree seeds were brought outside Brazil to help establish commercial rubber plantations in tropical climates around the world. Today, Latex is imported into the USA and foamed into mattress cores using the TALALAY Process for Latexpedic.
