Gone are the days when you simply grab the first pillow you see. Nowadays there is so much choice – and we’re proud to tell you we’re giving you even more choice with our brand new natural latex pillow: My Ultra Luxury Natural Latex pillows.
What is a natural latex pillow?
Natural latex pillows are gaining in popularity around the world because they’re known to be durable, supportive and soft. You can consider them a ‘gift from the Earth’ because they’re made from all-natural latex from the extracted sap of the rubber tree, sourced from selected and controlled plantations. This means they’re environmentally friendly… and that’s one of the reasons we love these pillows so much.
Reasons to fall in love with these pillows
- Latex pillows are proven to work well for a variety of sleep positions because they’re soft and flexible while at the same time providing excellent support for the neck and spine. Whether you sleep on your back or on your sides, Sealy natural latex pillows offer great support because the material adjusts to your movement, providing a firm but soft support.
- They’re hypoallergenic with antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. We use an intense hot air process to dry the latex, and this helps prevent mold, fungi, bacteria and mildew formation. It also makes the pillows more resistant to dust mites.
- Not too hot, not too cold. Latex naturally has lots of air cells between its fibers and is excellently ventilated, allowing natural latex pillows to breathe, offering temperature control on a softer sleep surface.
- Latex is a dense and elastic material, so pillows made with this material maintain their shape and softness much longer than most other pillow fillings.
- They’re easy to look after. Latex pillows don’t have to be cleaned as often as other pillows. Sealy Natural Latex Pillows come with a cotton pillow zip cover or a luxurious “teddy bear” zip off cover, which can be easily removed and washed, and the pillow itself should only ever be spot cleaned.

The difference between a natural latex pillow and a synthetic latex pillow
While out shopping for your next pillow, you might come across a synthetic latex pillow. So what’s the difference between the two? A natural latex pillow us made using only latex from the rubber tree, with no other filling materials. A synthetic latex pillow combines natural latex with various fillers and is made using petrochemicals.
