Описание: Natural latex mattresses look luxurious, but their story starts in the forests of Guatemala, where rubber trees drip a milky sap that becomes one of the most durable sleep materials in the world. In this deep-dive explainer, we follow latex from tree to mattress, uncovering how it’s tapped, processed, stabilized, whipped into foam, and transformed into premium mattress cores. Along the way, we break down why latex costs more than memory foam, how certifications like FSC and GOLS protect workers and forests, and why climate, labor, and slow production all shape the final price. If you’ve ever wondered what makes natural latex special—or why eco-friendly beds aren’t cheap—this episode reveals the full story behind the material you may spend a third of your life on.
