The demand for natural rubber has been increasing steadily for the past two decades and hasn’t slowed down much owing to the pandemic breakdown. It has accelerated, particularly in the last five years, due to increasing demand for non-toxic, environmentally friendly alternatives to household products such as bedding. Consumers are expecting safer, more natural and environmentally friendly products that they come in close contact with. An increasing opportunity can be observed for organic latex bedding worldwide as consumers have realized the real advantages of having their bedding products made out of nature-friendly material.
