THREE FIRMNESS OPTIONS |
Our Pure Talalay Luxury Pillow is available in three firmness options-firm, medium, and soft-each tailored to provide optimal neck support for various sleep preferences. The firm option (36 ILD latex) offers maximum neck support with a structured feel, ideal for back and side sleepers seeking extra stability. The medium pillow (28 ILD latex) balances softness with support, gently contouring to the neck and head, making it versatile for those who shift positions throughout the night. The soft option (24 ILD latex) provides a plush, gentle cradle, perfect for stomach sleepers or anyone preferring a lighter, more cushioned feel. Each firmness promotes proper spinal alignment, helping you find your ideal balance of comfort and support.

TALALAY MANUFACTURING |
Pure Talalay latex is made in Connecticut through a meticulous, multi-step process that ensures a breathable, consistent, and supportive material. It begins with formulating imported FSC® certified liquid latex and blending it with raw materials to achieve the perfect consistency. The latex mixture is then aerated and injected into a specially designed aluminum pincore mold, initiating Talalay s unique, open-cell structure. Next, a vacuum is applied to the sealed mold, ensuring the latex fills the cavity evenly, creating uniform consistency and firmness. In a step unique to the Pure Talalay process, the latex is flash-frozen at -22°F (-30°C), which prevents particle settling and locks in the material s distinctive cell structure. After freezing, the latex is heated to 220°F (104°C) to transform it from a liquid to a solid state. Following this, each latex core undergoes a thorough five-stage washing process to remove residual soaps or curing agents, ensuring a clean, non-toxic product. Finally, the latex is dried to remove any remaining moisture and complete the curing process, resulting in a supportive, resilient material. To ensure each product meets strict quality standards, every piece undergoes a nine-point firmness consistency test and an infrared technology scan. This intricate process produces Pure Talalay latex, renowned for its breathability, consistency, and unmatched comfort, making it an ideal choice for luxury pillows!

HYPOALLERGENIC & DUST MITE RESISTANT |
Like all of our natural latex pillows, it s naturally hypoallergenic, making it an ideal choice for those with allergies or sensitivities. Pure Talalay latex resists dust mites, mold, and mildew without adding chemicals, creating a cleaner, healthier sleep environment. This inherent resistance provides peace of mind, ensuring your pillow stays fresh and hygienic, night after night, while helping to reduce common allergens that can disrupt restful sleep.

CARE |
Spot clean your cotton cover in cold water with an eco-friendly laundry detergent. Lay flat or hang to dry. Do not use bleach. Allow to dry completely before putting the cover back on your pillow. To keep your pillow fresh and extend its lifespan, we recommend pairing it with our Organic Cotton Pillow Protector or Organic Waterproof Pillow Protector for added protection and easy maintenance.
