What is a latex
Latex…The Origin
Natural Latex is a milky substance harvested from rubber tree plants (Havea brasiliensis) which are grown in tropical climate plantations. Most are located in Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Cambodia. Harvesting the liquid latex is similar to tapping trees for maple syrup. The trees are not harmed, providing a
sustainable resource.
The natural benefit

Natural latex foam
The superior property of natural latex foam is its unique molecular structure, which permits extreme stretching – up to 200% without breaking or any alterations in its
original properties. Scientists have utilized these properties of high elasticity and superior resilience to the maximum advantage in making latex foam products. Natural latex foam becomes the finest material in cushioning products.
At ECOLIFE, we make sure we use only
the finest 100% NATURAL LATEX. Thereby enhancing the quality of our natural latex foam by endowing it with maximum comfort and also eco – friendly.
The benefits of the emulsion
Superior Quality, The Dunlop Process
Compounding
100% Natural latex is extracted from the tropical rubber tree in a way that is similar to tapping a maple tree for syrup. 100% Natural latex, soaps and rubber curing agents are precisely mixed in a temperature-controlled tank. Quality checks are performed on Ph, viscosity and temperature.
Molding
The compound mix is injects into an aluminum pin core mold. The pins create our unique aerated cell structure.
Washing
Unlike other latex manufacturers, Ecolife washes every mattress core and pillow. The latex core is removed from the mold and placed into washing machine then rinsing with fresh water. Fresh water washes away residual soaps, curing agents and proteins. While washing process, the products are squeezed to less
than 40% of their total thickness to remove the maximum amount of residual materials from deep within the product. This vital step improves durability and comfort by removing residual soaps, curing agents, and proteins that could cause premature softening of the product.
Drying
The Mattress core is transported to a micro wave and radio wave dryer, which completes the curing process and removes any residual moisture. Ecolife is only one in Thailand who uses high technology drying process.
Quality Testing & Fabrication
Once dry, every mattress core undergoes a rigorous pressure/firmness/ consistency test to ensure all cores meet stringent quality standards with even density across the core. Cores are expertly cut and constructed to meet our customers’ product specifications.
Our fabrication facilities are able to create custom sizes and thickness.
