Latex component manufacturer obtains FSC certification

Latexco, a manufacturer of latex foam components, PU foams and pocket spring units for the bedding industry, has obtained Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification, so it can now offer a product range made with FSC-certified latex.

This certificate guarantees that products with the FSC logo are produced with materials from responsibly-managed forests, and provides transparency and material traceability throughout the supply chain. 

The FSC label is a next step in Latexco’s sustainability efforts. Over the last 10 years the company has been raising awareness and investing in advanced technology, cutting energy consumption by almost 50% over the past few years. The company also recycles 100% of its wastewater and converts latex waste into new products.

“We are aware of the impact that our operations have on our planet and communities,” says Alexander Bolliou, Latexco’s CEO. “That is why, years ago, we resolutely chose to use and purchase sustainable goods and services."
