Differences between types of Dunlop - and where to buy?

[phoenix]

Hi LookingNow,

Does anyone know where to get natural dunlop latex for a great price? It has to be natural as I have allergies to synthetic.

The better sources for latex of all types that I’m aware of are listed in the component post here.

Because there’s such a difference in feel with such a small difference in thickness, i believe it’s a density issue and I probably need dunlop, even if I end up putting it under a piece of talalay.

It could also be related to the firmness that you chose because both Talalay and Dunlop come in a wide range if firmness levels. Firmer latex is also denser than softer latex of the same type and blend and natural rubber is also denser than synthetic rubber so a blend of either one would be less dense than a 100% natural version.

- Also, would there be a big difference on feel between regular dunlop and continuous pour for what I’m trying to do?

The biggest difference would be in the relative firmness and the blend of each one more than the difference between continuous pour and molded Dunlop itself.

Both of these are on the list of suppliers I linked and I would consider both of them to be reliable suppliers.
