In its simplest form, a latex foam mattress or pillow is one that has been manufactured using the collected and processed sap of a rubber tree as its internals, instead of using traditional bedding technology like air or springs. They are widely considered to be the best mattress for back pain, most durable, natural and healthy. They are also popular for those with allergies because the hypoallergenic organic material makes them the healthiest and most eco friendly mattress on the market.

Natural rubber was discovered when Columbus visited Haitai in 1495-1496. In 1876 seeds germinated by Hendry Wickham at Kew Gardens were sent to Sri Lanka. The process of Latex foam manufacturing was first invented by Dunlop Rubber in 1926 using SSF (Sodium Sillcoflouride) process.
Sri Lanka whilst being a pioneer in Rubber cultivation is proud indeed to be the first country to celebrate 100 years of Research & Development on Natural Rubber. This is truly a remarkable achievement.
Today, 95% of the total global rubber production is accounted by Asian countries.
