Thailand case study: how Moreganic® is rebuilding ecosystems
What is Moreganic® Latex?
In the heart of Southeast Asia, a transformative approach to latex farming is taking root — and thriving. Thailand is home to the first-ever Moreganic®-certified natural latex, cultivated through regenerative agroforestry that redefines how latex can be grown.
Moreganic® latex is more than just natural latex. It’s a commitment to sustainable, ethical sourcing through diverse ecosystems that support biodiversity, enrich soil, and sequester carbon - all while benefiting local communities and small-scale farmers.
Our case study in Thailand
Moreganic® latex is produced with sustainable farming methods that respect the environment and future generations. It avoids fertilisers and pesticides and promotes regenerative land use. Agroforestry systems used in Moreganic® farming dramatically increase ecological diversity: 32 plant species and 11 bat species thrive in these systems, compared to just 1 plant and 2–4 bat species in monocultures. Moreganic® latex farms foster fertile soil: Nutrient content (nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus) is 1.4–1.7 times higher. Runoff is reduced to 20–50% of monoculture levels
Climate Action Through Carbon Sequestration
Moreganic® latex doesn't just avoid environmental harm — it actively removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Our case study in Thailand revealed:
1 kg of Moreganic® latex sequesters 2.2 kg of CO₂
Agroforestry systems can store 50–150 tons of carbon per hectare over their life cycle
This figure shows the negative CO2 emission (cradle to gate) and the carbon sequestration of Moreganic natural latex documented by Control Union.

Why natural latex still matters
While sustainability is central, performance isn’t sacrificed. 100% natural Moreganic latex is prized in the sleep industry for its superior comfort and resilience. Here's why:
-
Exceptional Comfort & Support
Conforms gently to the body while providing lasting support. Ideal for spinal alignment and pressure relief.
-
Naturally Hypoallergenic
Resistant to mould, bacteria, and dust mites — perfect for allergy-sensitive sleepers.
-
Durable & Long-Lasting
Latex holds its shape over many years, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
We’re especially proud to announce that Moreganic®-certified natural latex won the prestigious ‘Best of the Best’ award this year at Interzum fair — a global recognition of sustainability and innovation.
With pioneering role of Novaya in bringing the first-ever Moreganic®-certified latex to the market we are setting a new standard in sustainable components for mattresses, toppers, and pillows. Thanks to the support of our partners — Allnatura in Germany and Beter Bed in the Netherlands — the first Moreganic®-certified mattresses are now available to European customers, bringing truly sustainable sleep to homes across the continent.
