How to Make Latex Pillow Step by Step

1. Raw Material Collected For Making Latex Pillow

The raw material that we use in latex pillow manufacture is the sap of a rubber tree, which grows in our self-owned rubber tree farm in south Thailand. Thailand has a tropical climate and a long rainy season, suitable for the growth of rubber trees. And Thai farmers have developed effective and advanced cultivation methods through their years of hard work. Hence, ensure the good quality of our liquid latex. Rubber trees are tapped once per day before sunrise. Our skilled rubber tapper is able to harvest up 500 trees a day. Usually, a latex pillow requires about 1200 grams of raw latex, as much as the collection from 50 mature rubber trees, if the wastage is excluded. The collected rubber sap should be transported to our latex factory in Thailand as soon as possible because the sap begins to set when exposed to sunlight and rising temperatures. We take pride in never letting it happen at our farm.

2. Latex Transportation, Purifying, and Concentrating

The collected rubber sap should be transported to our latex factory in Thailand as soon as possible because the sap begins to set when exposed to sunlight and rising temperatures. We take pride in never letting it happen at our farm. The fresh rubber sap collected from the tree should carry some unwanted substances, so we have to get rid of them by purifying process. To improve the uniformity of the latex and reduce transportation fees, the purified sap should be evaporated and concentrated.

3. Mixing Raw Materials

For later latex liquid foaming, the addition of some harmless chemicals is necessary, just as making flour into bread requires yeast and some other ingredients. So there’s actually no 100% natural latex pillow in the market. In fact, 100% used by sellers means no other common pillow material such as synthetic rubber, foam, gel, etc. Knowhow makes our latex pillow have a natural latex content of 90%-93%, a very high percentage, thanks to our advanced technology and equipment, and expertise. One thing we have to remind you of is that don’t purchase latex pillows with a latex content of less than 90%.

4. Natural latex foaming

Mix the natural latex and necessary harmless additives, and foam the natural latex under specific conditions to prepare the original material liquid that would later be molded into a pillow shape.

5. Inject the prepared latex liquid into molds

The foamed latex liquid is injected into molds in various shapes. That’s how your latex pillow is shaped. If you want to customize a special shape for your latex pillow, just contact our experts and specify your needs, and we’ll bring your latex pillow ideas into real products!

6. Mold the latex pillow at a high temperature

This step may not be strange for you as it is similar to a steaming bun. And it’s interesting when the creamy scent comes out from the heated latex liquid. Molding is the key process that gives the materials a new look.

7. Take the latex pillows out of the mold and get them trimmed and cleaned

You may get excited when you open the mold and see the shaped “latex buns”. They are very soft at the moment because there’s still much water contained in the pillows. Then all the formed latex pillows will be trimmed to have even edges and cleaned to get rid of impurity substances.

8. Dehydrating and drying

After cleaning, latex pillows should be heated to exclude remained water and then “baked” in machines for 12 hours. After this process, you’ll see the final product-flexible latex pillows that you often find in supermarkets or stores.

9. Pressure test and quality inspection

10. Packing Knowhow Latex Pillows

After quality inspection, our latex pillows will be packed in exquisite packaging before being transported to our business customers.
