GOLS Global Organic Latex Standard

The "Global Organic Latex Standard", GOLS in short, is the newly introduced standard for sustainable processing methods of latex products from organic raw materials. This mainly addresses the standards which need to be maintained with relevance to processing, manufacturing, packing, labeling, trading and distribution of latex products. In addition to the use of organic raw material, this standard also concentrates on aspects such as human health, safety and welfare, and environment in the manufacturing process of latex products.  Product labeled as “Made with Organic” or “Contains Organic” should contain minimum 95%.  or more of certified Organic latex (as per 2.1) and other certified Organic raw material (as per 2.2) in the final product, from its total weight. Balance 5% may contain non-organic products other than Natural or Synthetic latex. Any textiles materials used in the semi final or final products may be excluded from this calculation, however should be certified “Organic” as per GOTS standards or certified as per OE 100.

GOTS Global Organic Textile Standard

Only textile products that contain a minimum of 70% organic fibres can become GOTS certified. All chemical inputs such as dyestuffs and auxiliaries used must meet certain environmental and toxicological criteria. The choice of accessories is limited in accordance with ecological aspects as well. A functional waste water treatment plant is mandatory for any wet-processing unit involved and all processors must comply with minimum social criteria. The key criteria of GOTS, its quality assurance system and the principles of the review and revision procedure are summarised in this section.

 

Native to Brazil

 

Latexpedic® comes from the Hevea Brasilienis tree, originally native to the Amazon Jungles of Brazil.  (the first rubber ball was invented by the Mayans over 3500 years ago.)  Latex is white and milky in appearance, has an elastic consistency, and is removed from the tree through a process called "rubber tapping" - similar to tapping trees for maple syrup.  Just two centuries ago, the Havea Brasillienis treee was exclusive to the Amazon Rainforest. It wasn't until the 1870s when rubber tree seeds were brought to India to help establish the first commercial rubber plantations. Today, the Hevea Brasillienis trees are grown in tropical climates around the world.

History 

Phoenix AZ Natural Mattresses

 
 

Rubber tree plantation

In the wild, the tree can reach a height of up to 100 feet (30 m). The white or yellow latex occurs in latex vessels in the bark,  mostly outside thephloem. These vessels spiral up the tree in a right-handed helix which forms an angle  of about 30 degrees with the horizontal, and can grow as high as 45 ft.  In plantations, the trees are generally smaller for two reasons: 1) Trees grow slower when they are tapped for latex, and 2) trees are generally cut after 30 years because latex production declines as trees age, and they are no longer economically viable.  The tree requires a tropical or subtropical climate with a minimum of about 1200 mm/yr of rainfall, and without frost.   If frost does occur, the results can be disastrous for production. One frost can cause the rubber from an entire plantation to become brittle and break once it has been refined.

Harvest of latex

Harvesters make incisions across the latex vessels, just deep enough to tap the vessels without harming the tree's growth, and the latex is collected in small buckets. This process is known as rubber tapping. Latex production is highly variable from tree to tree and across clone types.   Phoenix AZ Organic Mattresses

Rubber tapping

Process

Each night a rubber tapper must remove a thin layer of bark along a downward half spiral on the tree trunk. If done carefully and with skill, this tapping panel will yield latex for up to five years. Then the opposite side will be tapped, allowing this side to heal over. The spiral allows the latex to run down to a collecting cup. The work is done at night or in the early morning before the day's temperature rises.  100% Pure Talalay Latex Mattress Phoenix AZ.   so the latex will drip longer before coagulating and sealing the cut.Depending on the final product, additional chemicals can be added to the latex cup to preserve the latex longer. Ammonia solution helps prevent natural coagulation and allows the latex to remain in its liquid state. Plastic bags containing a coagulant have replaced cups in many plantations in Malaysia. This form of latex is used as the raw material for latex concentrate, which is used for dipped rubber products or for the manufacture of ribbed smoke sheet grades.  Naturally coagulated latex, sometimes referred to as cup lump, is collected for processing into block rubbers, which are referred to as technically specified rubbers (TSRs). The serum left after latex coagulation is rich in quebrachitol, a cyclitol or cyclic polyol

Natural rubber

"Rubber" and "India rubber" redirect here. For other uses, see Rubber (disambiguation).  This article is about the polymeric material "natural rubber". For man-made rubber materials, see Synthetic rubber Natural rubber, also called India rubber or caoutchouc, as initially produced, consists of polymers of the organic compound isoprene, with minor impurities of other organic compounds plus water. Forms of polyisoprene that are used as natural rubbers are classified as elastomers. Currently, rubber is harvested mainly in the form of the latex from certain trees. The latex is a sticky, milky colloid drawn off by making incisions into the bark and collecting the fluid in vessels in a process called "tapping". The latex then is refined into rubber ready for commercial processing. Natural rubber is used extensively in many applications and products, either alone or in combination with other materials. In most of its useful forms, it has a large stretch ratio and high resilience, and is extremely waterproof.

Varieties

The major commercial source of natural rubber latex is the Pará rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), a member of the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae. This species is widely used because it grows well under cultivation and a properly managed tree responds to wounding by producing more latex for several years.  Congo rubber, formerly a major source of rubber, came from vines in the genus Landolphia (L. kirkii, L. heudelotis, and L. owariensis) These cannot be cultivated, and the intense drive to collect latex from wild plants was responsible for many of the atrocities committed under the Congo Free State.  Many other plants produce forms of latex rich in isoprene polymers, though not all produce usable forms of polymer as easily as the Pará rubber tree does; some of them require more elaborate processing to produce anything like usable rubber, and most are more difficult to tap. Some produce other desirable materials, for example gutta-percha (Palaquium gutta) and chicle from Manilkara species. Others that have been commercially exploited, or at least have shown promise as sources of rubber, include the rubber fig (Ficus elastica), Panama rubber tree (Castilla elastica), various spurges (Euphorbia spp.), lettuce (Lactuca species), the related Scorzonera tau-saghyz, various Taraxacum species, including common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) and Russian dandelion (Taraxacum kok-saghyz), and guayule (Parthenium argentatum). The term gum rubber is sometimes applied to the tree-obtained version of natural rubber in order to distinguish it from the synthetic version.

 

CERTIFIED ORGANIC MATTRESSES

WHAT IS AN ORGANIC MATTRESS?

\In recent decades, most mattresses have been made either with metal springs sandwiched between layers of polyurethane foam, or with just foam. In showrooms, salespeople typically focus on firmness, talking about the number of springs or the density of the foam. What they rarely bring up -- but what has become increasingly common knowledge among consumers -- is that polyurethane foam is made from petroleum, and that it can emit volatile organic compounds (V.O.C.'s), which have been linked to respiratory irritation and other health problems, according to both the Environmental Protection Agency and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

Latexpedic® comes from the Hevea Brasilienis tree, originally native to the Amazon Jungles of Brazil.  The first use of rubber was by the Olmecs, who centuries later passed on the knowledge of natural latex from the Hevea tree in 1600 BC to the ancient Mayans, who harvested latex to make rubber balls for the ancient Mesoamerican ballgames. Latex was symbolic of fertility, and was often burned, buried, or (fortunately for archaeology) laid in a sacrificial pool as an offering to various deities. Latex is white and milky in appearance, has an elastic consistency, and is removed from the tree through a process called "rubber tapping" (similarly, Opium is the milky latex obtained from the poppy.)  Just two centuries ago, the Havea Brasillienis tree was exclusive to the Amazon Rainforest. It wasn't until the late 1800’s that Heavea Brazilienis tree seeds were brought outside Brazil to help establish commercial rubber plantations in tropical climates around the world.  Today, Latex is imported into the USA and foamed into mattress cores using the Talalay Process for Latexpedic®.
