HOW WE CREATED THE PERFECT NIGHT’S SLEEP
The story of how we created the world’s best mattress started in 1979 with a single piece of thread...
We supplied our very first spool of thread to a Derbyshire mattress factory in 1979. Quickly our family thread business weaved across the world... It's been used in 50 million mattresses in over 35 countries. The chances are, the mattress you'll sleep on tonight will use that thread. Then we thought - why not use this thread to create our own mattresses? We diversified into mattress design and supply in 2002 It was a great success. We sold over 1m mattresses - but we knew we could take it even further. We wanted to create the perfect mattress. A high-tech mattress that was affordable and adapts to your body for exceptional support.
WORKING WITH THE BEST
So we brought together the three leading experts in their own industries to create the number one mattress. Cutting-edge design. Foam. Springs. All with one thing in mind: the perfect night's sleep.We started with the three layers of foam, experimenting with different combinations of foam - PU foam, high density foam, synthetic foam and natural foams - until we got it right. But we knew we could do better than a foam stack...
THE SPRINGS
We added springs, working with one of the world's leading spring manufacturers to design a spring that would fit inside of a rolled mattress. This was revolutionary. The conical pocket spring we developed was the missing ingredient - it meant we solved the secret of the perfect night's sleep.
Now it was the time for the top layer latex. We went through lots of different types of latex and found none were good enough. So we developed our very own open cell foam. We called it Simbatex. It meant it didn’t trap in heat and added a luxurious level of comfort to the mattress.
