Natural Latex is a milky substance harvested from rubber tree plants (Havea brasiliensis) which are grown in tropical climate plantations around the world. Most of the rubber plantations are located in Malaysia, Indonesia, India, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka. Natural Latex is bio-degradable and naturally resistant to mold, mildew & bacteria.
Liquid latex is harvested by pealing the bark of the tree and collecting the milky substance. It is a sustainable resource as the rubber tree is not harmed in the process. Around 15 grams of latex is collected from an average tree a day. A medium queen mattress needs a daily output of 2500 rubber trees spreading over 10 acres of rubber plantation.
