Organic Latex
Latex foam is wonderful stuff. The milky sap from rubber trees (Hevea Brasiliensis trees to be precise!) is tapped straight from the tree (similar to tapping syrup from a Maple tree) by cutting a groove into the bark which allows the sap to exude into a container (usually a coconut shell) over a period of hours. The liquid latex is collected every morning and taken along to a marshmallow machine (it's totally true) which pumps air into the latex to create a great vat of foamy white froth, just like a giant cappuccino. This is then laid out in deep troughs that are put in a large oven to set. The final product is a wonderfully elastic and supportive material which has an open structure (lovely and breathable) and is naturally hypo allergenic.
