This latex is cool and comfortable<\/strong> and is the most similar to down and other traditional pillow types.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe main reason for the differences between these types of latex pillows is how every kind of latex is made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dunlop latex is made by filling an entire mould with latex foam and then letting it set. This setting is what gives it its bottom-heavy density.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Talalay latex uses a mould too, but this mould is only partially filled and then vacuum sealed. This seal causes the foam to expand, giving Talalay latex its softness and lighter feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Solid vs Shredded Latex<\/h3>\n\n\n\n Latex foam pillows come either solid or shredded, with the main difference between the two being their density and airflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Solid latex pillows are exceptional at providing neck and spinal support to sleepers of all styles, back sleepers, side sleepers, and railway sleepers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are springier than their shredded counterparts and are the right pillow to have if you struggle with pain and are looking for pressure relief while you sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Solid latex pillows contour and mould to the shape of your body but are responsive enough that you will never “bottom-out” as you do with some memory foam or down pillows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And they are by far the longest-lasting pillows on the market<\/strong>. They will not lose their shape over time, and if you look, you can find some pillows that are specifically shaped to fit your body and sleep style.<\/p>\n\n\n\nShredded latex pillows feel and look a little more like the regular and down pillows you may be used to; however, they are often much cooler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is mostly because these pillows provide all the soft and comfortable benefits of a standard pillow, with the temperature-regulating and hypoallergenic benefits of latex. What’s more, the shredded design offers excellent airflow, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While less supportive and generally less long-lasting than solid latex pillows, they are an excellent alternative for those who want to fluff their pillows now and then!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
