moisture resistance	Due to the porous structure of natural latex has excellent breathability. It does not absorb moisture, ensures correct temperature regulation.	Not resistant to moisture. Quickly absorbs the liquid. It acts like a sponge. In humid penopoliuretanluchshe not use.	Good "breathing", the moisture does not stay long inside.
health safety	Products not accumulate dust inside. This makes them affordable even for asthmatics. Inside material not breed bacteria, mold, fungus.
