Diamond & Firmrest Mattress

Latex.
In its purest form, natural latex is the milky white liquid that is tapped from the trunks of mature rubber trees (hevea brasiliensis).
  
Dunlopillo takes the natural latex and blends it with a synthetic latex (SBR). This blended mixture is then ready to be turned into latex foam, using the TALALAY production process.

The TALALAY Production Process is a measured amount of slightly foamed latex which is poured into a large fixed mould to only partially fill it. The lid is then sealed and the latex is expanded by vacuum to completely fill the mould. As soon as the latex has filled the mould it is 'held' and prevented from collapsing by rapidly dropping the temperature to -30°C and freezing it solid.

At this point, carbon dioxide gas is passed through the latex and the temperature raised to 115°C, which sets and vulcanises it, after which the lid of the mould automatically opens, and the product is stripped and placed on a conveyor. The latex block or pillow is transferred first through a washer to rinse out any residual detergents and impurities before passing through a mangle to squeeze out the water.

The product then travels through a system of overhead dryers prior to reaching a physical testing station. Every latex block is individually tested to ensure it meets the required specifications for density and hardness, prior to despatch or conversion in to a mattress or pillow.

The best-selling Diamond and Firmrest models have been recently upgraded and now feature a 100% deep Talalay Latex interior for even greater comfort. These models can be combined with either a sprung edge base or a firmer feel sprung timber base. Both types are available with an optional range of drawer combinations. In addition a five section electrical adjustable option is available, which offers a wide range of actions, including a knee-bend and a telescopic head setting.
