When it comes to buying a mattress, there are many questions that we ask ourselves. First, because we are aware that healthy sleep is essential for our health, and second, because buying a quality mattress that will last can be a not insignificant investment financially.
At first glance, mattresses can all look the same: to understand the differences and find out which mattress fits you the most, Dorsal recommends that you go to one of its specialized stores located throughout Italy (visit the page dedicated our retailers). But to leave with already an idea about what the products are and their differences, Dorsal thought of answering some of the questions that Dorsal customers often ask retailers. Today we are talking about the latex mattress. Valentina, Dorsal Sales, will explain more about what a latex mattress is, who it is recommended for, and the specifics of latex mattresses signed by Dorsal, a specialist in natural rest.
Good morning Valentina, can you tell us more about what kind of latex mattresses Dorsal produces and what their characteristics are?
Dorsal, which has always been attentive to the naturalness and quality of sleep, has chosen for its Latex Mattress range a material unique in its characteristics and processing: Talalay Latex.
The particular Talalay processing (named after the creator of the processing method) is activated through a mixture of latex, air and other components that are not harmful to the body, which through a stabilization process called "vulcanization" allows to obtain the finished product.
Talalay latex today is featured in the Vitalaly line and Azzurro pillows. Dorsal's Vitalay latex mattresses have the distinction of being high performance and breathable, and differ in durability / lifespan among all those used in the rest industry. Open cell processing, an essential feature for a mattress that is always cool and dry-feel, creates a network of micro ventilation channels within the mattress that allow constant air to escape and maintain the correct bed System microclimate (humidity/temperature ratio).
Why are these latex mattresses from Dorsal recommended for people with allergies and children?
This open cell and communicating structure of Talalay latex creates the inhospitable environment to the proliferation of bacteria and microorganisms, it does not retain dust, so it is a material recommended for both toddlers and adults, especially those with mites and bacteria allergy problems. Our latex is long-lasting, hypoallergenic and extremely hygienic; in addition, its perfect elasticity allows the position of the back spine to be constantly correct. In short, Dorsal's Vitalay mattresses, in addition to comfort, also guarantee to be an allergy barrier certified by laboratory tests at the DERMATOLOGISCHE UNIVERSITÄTSKLINIK in ERLANGEN, Germany.
We often hear that latex mattresses are most delicate and require a lot of maintenance?
Talalay latex mattresses are not at all prone to mold growth. It is a commonplace to identify the latex mattress as a fertile habitat for mold and bacteria. In particular, our Vitalay mattresses have anti-bacterial qualities, and the type of material chosen by Dorsal, creates an inhospitable ground for mold and mites. They only need to be aired and rotated periodically following the normal maintenance of any foam mattress.
