No such thing as an "Organic mattress" San Diego area

Hi Back sleeper,

i’m confused why you say there IS such a thing as “certified latex”, when in the post you refer readers to (which i have copied below), you write that there is "No Talalay Latex in the world has organic certification;

You’re correct that there is no Talalay latex in the world that has an organic certification. In most cases this is marketing information and usually means that the cover is organic instead of the whole mattress or the latex layers themselves. A more accurate description would be “100% natural Talalay latex mattress with an organic cover” but the word “organic” is so commonly misused in the entire industry that some retailers or manufacturers believe they need to use “organic” for competitive reasons instead of it’s more technically correct meaning … and with the current state of the market and consumer misunderstanding of what organic really means when it comes to mattresses … to some degree they may have legitimate concerns.

Are you saying that there is organic latex, but the latex from Latex International is just not organic?

The only GOLS certified organic latex cores that are available in the world are Dunlop and there is no certified organic Talalay … only 100% natural Talalay (which means that there is no synthetic rubber in the latex because there are also other ingredients in the compounding formula for any latex besides the latex itself. There is more about the different levels of organic certifications (the agricultural material, the latex core, and a mattress itself) in post #2 here and the posts it links to. Latex International only makes Talalay latex and none of the raw materials they use or the latex latex cores they manufacture are certified organic.
