Discover comfort with a Vispring bed
Vispring beds and mattresses are made with pocket springs. When needed, each spring moves independently, which means that sleeping partners are less likely to disturb one another when turning. This means every part of the body is properly supported.
Uniquely, all the springs used in Vispring mattresses and divans are actually made in the Vispring workshop in PLYMOUTH. Most other mattress manufacturers simply buy their springs from a wholesaler.
Their Vanadium steel springs are expertly manufactured, they display a strength and flexibility that is without equal. Honeycomb-nested inside natural cotton calico pockets, they mould your mattress to your body, providing constant support with no undue pressure. By day, they readopt their original shape to preserve your bed’s structure for many years to come.
At the heart of each mattresses lies a single, double, or triple layer of springs. This multi-layered construction provides the ultimate in responsiveness and support. So much more than their number, it’s the shape and gauge of the springs that matter. With nine different wire gauges and 74 distinct spring types to choose from, you’ll be sure to find the perfect spring tensions for both you and your partner.
A lifetime of comfort – spring nesting a tailored support system
Inside every Vispring mattress, they install by hand, a single, double, or triple layer of honeycomb-nested calico pocketed springs. This isn’t a new invention — this formation is well known as being the strongest and most resilient structure in the natural world, so it makes sense to use this grid in bed-building. To ensure each pocket spring works independently, our experienced technicians carefully enclose every single one into a cotton calico pocket. These are then skilfully hand-nested in a honeycomb pattern, which allows the individual springs to compress and expand in line with your body, supporting you from head to toe as you sleep.
Handcrafted Side Stitching on every Vispring Bed
Up to six rows are deftly sewn with 100% natural twine, which provides the thousands of contact points between the outer shell and honeycomb spring unit. Understandably, the Vispring way takes time, but is driven by the need for durability and quality — it takes one craftsperson up to eight hours to side-stitch a mattress by hand.
Natural Fillings in every Vispring Bed
The living world almost always provides the best materials — which is why only the finest natural fibres are used to create their unsurpassably comfortable fillings. Whether it’s wool, silk, bamboo, horsetail or cotton, every filament is lovingly hand-laid over the honeycombed pocket springs to provide a soft, breathable, hypo-allergenic and fully biodegradable foundation for sleeping.
Hand crafted in the UK
The skilled technicians at the Plymouth workshop use meticulous care to close every Vispring mattress. A strong but flexible ticking tape is used to join the side border to the top panel using a specially adapted sewing machine. This fastidious, thorough procedure seals the mattress to ensure a smooth surface with no raw fabric edges. Far from being decorative — it helps to safeguard the structure and give a beautiful, long-lasting finish.
Hand-tufting keeps everything secure and guarantees your comfort for thirty years or more.
Each and every mattress is tufted by hand. Evenly distributed throughout the entire mattress, these tufts hold the fillings in position. It’s these carefully judged tuft lengths that create the voluptuous signature contoured surface.
Once the mattresses are filled, they are covered in the finest quality ticking. For most of the collection, this means 100% Belgian Damask woven by Maes, a family-owned business in Flanders with the prestigious Oeko Tex® certification. This high-grade fabric, made of plant-based natural viscose, complies with the strictest REACH environmental laws and sustainable business practices.
For safety, while wool mattresses are naturally fire-retardant, each is treated with M-Pure. This non-chemical treatment uses only biologically based ingredients. Skilled technicians then hand-apply tape to the mattress edges with meticulous care, closing the panel and borders and leaving no raw fabric edges. Slender yet strong, the tape creates a beautiful, smooth finish.
