Mattsons

Craftsmanship

When building beds, as with life in general, there can be no shortcuts. In order for our craftsmen to build the best beds possible they need to work with the very best materials. From our century and a half of working with and supplying high quality wood, with nearly one hundred years of that time with the bedroom in focus, we have time and time again come to the see that the original philosophy of Mattsons still holds true today and represents something that will never be outdated. Every Mattsons bed is handmade right here in Sweden. No exception, no shortcuts. Just a steady focus on delivering genuine, long lasting quality and comfort, every time. As was often the case in many part of Sweden at the time when company was started, local materials were the preference. Once Mattsons got into furniture manufacturing the wood that was used for the manufacturing therefore came from the company’s own forests. For that purpose large areas of land was from time to time bought up for the purpose of having continuous access to high quality wood, something that still today is a very important part of Mattsons

WOOL

Wool is a fascinating material that acts as a warm layer in cold weather and cools your body down when you are feeling warm. In other words, wool is a performance material of nature and is also inflammable. Wool is nature’s miracle that is a performance material making an ideal partner for horsetail hair and cotton.

An optimal bed climate is enabled by the use of pure wool, which functions as a makeshift climate regulator of your bed. For a very long time, wool has been a renowned material for its capability to remain warm in cold and vice versa. Using wool, one can sleep comfortably at an optimal temperature and remain dry. The wool fiber has been structured in a way that enables large volumes of air to position themselves in between the fibers, therefore offering impeccable insulation properties while making it flexible, elastic, and resilient. Moreover, about 30 percent of the wool’s weight in water can be absorbed by the material, without becoming wet.

Just as important as growing perfect natural fibre in a sustainable way is ensuring that it’s fit for purpose and delivers the optimum performance at all times. By working closely with our New Zealand wool farmers, innovation partners and customers, we can offer wool that surpasses expectations and meets specific needs. All this with an eye on the future, anticipating future trends and adapting our on-farm methods accordingly.

HORSEHAIR

When it comes to creating a good bed, very few materials are comparable to horsehair. Each curled strand of horsehair can operate as a small spring, thereby improving the functioning of our internal spring systems. Therefore, this offers support and pliability. Moreover, when one uses horsehair, they are also opting for the in-built, effective ventilation system.

Horsehairs function like miniature airways: each strand is a hollow tube that comes with a microscopic capillary action, eliminating moisture and accepting fresh air. Interestingly, its drying property is so prominent that soaking a strand in water and shaking it removes water almost instantaneously. In Mattsons bed, there are countless natural micro springs that channel away moisture and excess heat from your body, so you can enjoy a comfortable sleep. The absence of heat and moisture will ensure that you fall asleep sooner and immerse yourself in an unperturbed sleep so you wake up completely rejuvenated. Needless to say, your quality of sleep will be enhanced with these beds.

COCONUT COIR FIBER

The coconut fiber, also known as coir, comes from the inner husk of coconuts and for that reason dust mite resistant. Also as they are very suitable for people suffering from allergies. The thickness of coconut coir is very important. If the thickness of the fiber is very less it doesn’t provide the required firmness for stability in our beds.

At Mattsons Beds we use the coconut material for a straight and firm edge of the mattress.

SPRINGS

The Mattsons springs provide support and relieve pressure, without making a sound while aligning your body in an optimal position. The springs are scientifically robust mechanisms that form an integral part of the bed. We provide springs of top-notch quality which are manufactured in Sweden. Each Mattsons bed comes with at least two spring systems working in tandem. The springs that are soft and flexible, making the bed soft, coupled with springs that are firm, which are situated below to provide robust support. As these spring systems work together, the bed aligns with your body’s shape to provide maximum support and relaxation. The springs used in our beds come with a 25 year warranty.
