Abstract: A facility including molds into each of which a latex foam is introduced and a furnace into the vulcanizing chamber of which the molds are introduced with a view to vulcanizing the latex foam for the formation of articles. The facility further includes a mold filling station for filling the molds with latex foams, a stripping station for removing the articles and a washing unit and drying unit for the stripped articles. The vulcanizing chamber is embodies by a shell arranged at a distance from the side walls and above the furnace, which together with the latter delimits an enclosed space which communicates with the vulcanizing chamber by way of passages embodied in the lower part. The invention provides for the upper part to have at least one opening for introducing steam which communicates with the enclosed space and for the lower part to have at least one opening for extracting the steam and evacuating the condensed water.
