LATEX foam is a product with unique properties. This foam can be produced using natural latex, synthetic latex, or a combination of both. When combined with different additives, it is possible to obtain foams with varying hardness, density, and thickness, depending on the intended purpose.

Latex foam: an essential product

In the footwear industry, latex foam is synonymous with comfort. That’s why, at EAB, we specialize in producing latex foams that are used by some of the most renowned manufacturers internationally.

Latex foam is characterized by providing good cushioning and support to the foot. It is a material that maintains its resilience characteristics for a longer period than competing materials, thus providing longer-lasting footwear.

In this type of application, latex foam is mostly used in the form of insoles or heel pads, which can have different densities, hardness levels, and thicknesses according to the customer’s needs. One can opt for a softer foam for greater comfort or choose a foam with higher density or hardness to provide more support and durability.

Much more than just foam for footwear

But latex foam is not only used in the footwear industry. At EAB, we are constantly exploring new ways to use latex foam so that we can offer our customers an even wider range of products.

At EAB, we take pride in our latex foam and its versatility. With it, we can create a wide range of products, ranging from insoles to household items such as mats and other items. By adding secondary raw materials such as cork powder, crushed tire rubber, rice husk, and coffee grounds, we are working to reduce the environmental impact of latex foam production.
