Unlike other materials, latex has two main characteristics:

- it conforms to the shape of your head as you rest it on the pillow.
2. The pillow protector
If you suffer from allergies, it is essential that the latex pillow has a zipper so that the cover can be completely removed and machine-washed at 60°C. Alternatively, you can choose a cover that is machine-washable at 95°C.
