Latex Green (Pvt.) Ltd has become the world’s first ISO 14046:2014/Water Foot Print-certified latex foam manufacturing facility. 

The company presently manufactures 100 percent natural and organic latex foam cores, toppers and pillows at a carbon neutralised manufacturing facility. 

The company is committed to enhancing customer satisfaction through the implementation of the quality management system (QMS) that meets the requirements of ISO 9001:2015. 
Water consumption and pollution rapidly increased with industrialisation and globalisation, thereby causing scarcity of freshwater resources. Latex foam making is considered as a highly water consuming industry. Latex Green, as an ethical and environmentally responsible business, began to embark on a journey to manage water consumption and waste water release to the environment. 

The water Footprint Assessment (WFA) is a structured process, which quantifies and maps the green, blue and grey water footprint, its sustainability. Water footprint implies the volume of freshwater used to produce the product, measured over the full supply chain. 

Latex Green (Pvt.) Ltd continues to provide high-quality latex-based bedding solutions (mattress, pillows and toppers) to customers worldwide.
