Perfect Support... Naturally

The origin of latex could perhaps be attributed to the steamy jungles of South America from the tree named “Hevea Brasiliensis”.

The substance was found to be ideal to erase pencil marks, hence it is commonly known as “Rubber”.

Much later in the middle of the 19th century, Charles Goodyear invented the process of vulcanization of rubber using sulpher. This opened up endless possibilities for using rubber in the manufacture of various products. Consequent to the demand for rubber, organized plantations came up in South America and later spread to South East Asia, India and Sree Lanka.

At Coco Latex we make sure we use only finest, 100% natural latex. Thereby enhancing the quality of our mattresses by endowing it with maximum comfort. They are also eco-friendly and biodegradable.

Ensuring Total Healthy Lifestyle

Every stage of the production process is closely scrutinized to ensure the highest standards of quality. For this, a series of extensive tests like hardness, permanent deformation, breaking strain, accelerated ageing and density tests are carried out. Beyond all this, thanks to the open-celled structure of the foam, the product will remain bacteria-free even after successive uses, thus ensuring a totally healthy lifestyle for you.

The measurement and the characteristic curve of resilience was taken central to the area as force-displacement plot.

a) After 200 strokes
b) After 30000 strokes
c) After 60000 strokes

The characteristic curves of resilience allow an assessment of the resilience and durability characteristic as well as subjective hardness rating.
-Characteristics before the test
Hardness index: 4.3
Hysteresis: 10.7%
Height of the system: 155mm

 

Characteristics after the test
Change in height after the test: 1 mm
Change in hardness after 30000 strokes: 15%
Change in hardness after the test: 16%
Resilience loss factor after the test: 4.6
(Deviating from European standardization work)

 

The data is determined based on the LGA-rating system limited to a maximum of 100 points.
The minimum value for performance is 50 points. The requirement for an increased quality level is 80 points.
The reached total number of points for the 4 characteristic data is 98 points out of a maximum of 100.
Change in height after test: 25 points
Change in hardness after 30000 strokes: 25 points
Change in hardness after the test: 25 points
Resilience loss factor after test: 23 points

 

Dimensions
The 100% natural latex sheets manufactured in various dimensions. Each product is separately moulded. The maximum dimension is 205 cm X 150 cm X 15 cm. We also manufacture the products with varying thickness from 3 cm, 6 cm, 10 cm and 15 cm.
