They are processes

Dunlop and Talalay refer to ways latex foam can be manufactured; they are not the same thing as natural versus synthetic content.

Dunlop in practice

Dunlop latex is often described as denser and is widely used in mattress comfort and support layers.

Talalay in practice

Talalay processing adds freezing and vacuum steps and is often associated with a more consistent, buoyant foam structure.
