What other stuff is added to Talalay latex?

Latex - Frequently Asked Question - FloBeds.com
Unlike some competing products, our product contains no fillers or extenders. We only add the components needed to convert the material from a liquid to a solid that lasts. We add soap, ammonia, zinc oxide and sulfur. The ammonia evaporates and the soap and zinc oxide are washed out. The sulfur is needed to cure the product so that it bounces back after you sleep on it.

How are latex products different from GREAT STUFF?

Frequently Asked Questions
Latex foams are typically â??open celledâ?? and, as a result, can take on water. In fact, the same properties that allow you to wash latex foam off your hands with water also mean that the cured foam can absorb water. This can cause wood rot or deterioration in areas where wet latex foam is next to wood, such as a window frame. In contrast, GREAT STUFF is closed-cell foam. It forms a water-resistant outer coating when cured. Latex foam does not expand.

What's so good about Latex?

Latex - Frequently Asked Question - FloBeds.com
Latex is naturally conforming, so you are assured optimal orthopedic support in any sleep position. This unique ability to conform to your body alleviates areas of high pressure that cause you to toss and turn at night. Latex is also hypo-allergenic, anti-microbial, dust-mite resistant and breathable. Because it breathes to remove body moisture, it keeps you warmer in the winter, and cooler in the summer.

What is Dunlop Latex?

Latex - Frequently Asked Question - FloBeds.com
Dunlop Latex uses the continuous Dunlop process. This latex does not have the consistant or supple characteristics of Talalay, and because it does not require the extensive processing of Talalay, it can be produced much cheaper. N Is a firm edge better? No. You want edge-to-edge comfort. Many companies try to save money by eliminating latex from their "latex bed". A 4 inch "firm" edge of polyurethane foam will save 20% in latex costs.

My baby has a latex allergy. Is this pacifier made of latex?

FAQs at Cloth Diaper Outlet
No! This pacifier is made of silicone. Also, it is medical grade and given out by many hospitals nationwide in their nurseries. Here's what I do: warm a couple of tablespoons of water in the microwave. Drop in one Baby Bit. Stir it until it dissolves. Add enough cool water to make one cup. The hot water helps it to dissolve faster, but the cool water makes it so you can use it right away (if you're like me, you've waited until you need it right NOW to make it!).
