The so-called true latex pillow is made in Thailand. First of all, ingredients, 93%-95% pure natural latex ingredients belong to high-quality latex pillows. Most factories in Thailand produce about 93% latex pillows, which are considered as excellent latex pillows, and only a few factories can achieve 95%.
According to the price analysis of 93% latex, a pillow is about 1.5kg, and the production price from Thailand is about 150, from raw materials to processing to labor. If it is shipped from Thailand to China, according to the container land transportation cost, a pillow is probably the land transportation cost of 25 yuan, plus customs clearance duty, it will cost more than 200 points to get to China warehouse. At this cost, the real latex pillow below 200 yuan is unnecessary.
Extended data:
An adult rubber tree can only produce 30cc of rubber stock solution a day, and a real latex pillow needs 50 rubber trees a day to produce 1500cc of stock solution. In addition, the rubber tapping method is purely manual operation. They need to cut a hole in the rubber tree, tear off the bark, and then the latex juice will flow out of that hole. Many rubber farmers can only collect two barrels of rubber in a busy night.
Summer is the best tapping season, and the best tapping time is from 2 am to 5 am. At this time, the amount of glue is large and the quality is good, which requires a lot of manpower. In addition, there are few mature trees, and the scarcity of raw materials determines the higher price of real latex pillows, as well as the labor cost of rubber farmers.
