Tempur mattresses 'were an instant success'

After the company was first formed in 1989, Tempur has since gone on to be one of the leading manufacturers of memory foam mattresses.

According to its website, the business was also awarded the title of Company of the Year in 2006 and received an award from NASA in 1998.

It wasn't until 1991 that the first Tempur mattress and pillows were launched in Sweden, following over 5,000 documented trials into the pressure-relieving material and its benefits.

The company claims that over 50 per cent of people around the world suffer from back pain and therefore success was instant when Tempur mattresses were first introduced.

Its products are now sold in health shops, bed stores, departments stores and furniture specialists world wide.

The material used to make a Tempur mattress is 'body-friendly' and provides the perfect balance between a hard and soft bed, enabling people to get a good night's sleep.
