What is Organic Latex?

Organic latex is a form of natural latex that has received a guaranteed seal of environmental approval and certification from the Global Organic Latex Standard (GOLS). All organic latex mattresses are completely free of any manmade products and chemicals, providing you with complete peace of mind that your new mattress is completely eco-friendly.

The Global Organic Latex Standard

The Global Organic Latex Standard is the industry’s gold standard and is designed to ensure that all organic latex mattresses are made from trees that were grown to meet organic best practices, including a manufacturing process that is both sustainable and eco-friendly. In order for an organic latex mattress to receive the proper certification, there are several factors that need to be taken into consideration, including:

  • The mattress must be made up of 95% certified organic raw materials.
  • The organic goods must be clearly traced back to where they were grown.
  • The latex must be labelled properly and kept separate from non-organic materials.

Why Choose an Organic Latex Mattress?

Choosing to buy an organic latex mattress can help encourage sustainability and eco-friendliness in plantations around the world, while also encouraging people to be more conscious about using precious resources in a sustainable way. All certified organic latex mattresses are hypo-allergenic, prevent the migration of dust mites, and have a life expectancy of 25-30 years, which is 3-4 times longer than conventional mattresses.

The organic label from the Global Organic Latex Standard also guarantees that the mattress does not contain any toxic chemicals or pesticide residue. Since the organic latex process also prevents the use of chemicals in the plantation, the latex being used is completely pure with no additives. The production process in the factory also prohibits the use of toxic chemicals, which means that you can trust that your new organic latex mattress has not be contaminated in any way.
