In the last 60 years, Latexco has grown from a small family business into a world-class player in the bedding industry.
Natural latex
Natural latex is the juice of the tropical rubber tree ‘Hevea Brasiliensis’ that is cultivated in plantations in Southeast Asia (Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia), parts of Africa (Cameroon) and South America (Brazil).Latex is a white milky fluid, a stable dispersion of rubber (organic polymer) particles in water.
Latexco selects high-quality natural latex from selected and controlled plantations, which has been carefully tested before being used in the manufacturing process.
