Vi-spring materials

Vi-spring chooses its materials carefully, with the comfort and support of their customers in mind.

Vi-spring only uses the highest quality materials in its mattresses and divans, and each material is chosen for the benefits it can bring to the most important people in Vi-spring's world - the people who sleep on its beds.

Springs

Vi-spring pioneered the pocket-sprung mattress construction method and remains one of the leading brands on this side of the mattress market. Unlike other manufacturers, who may buy their springs in from other suppliers, Vi-spring manufactures its own springs at its Plymouth factory. This lets it have complete control over the quality and production of one of the most important elements of the business.

Fillings

When it comes to filling materials, Vi-spring uses the best. Horsehair is regularly used as a filling material and whilst this might seem antiquated to some, the benefits of good quality horsehair as a filling material are well-known. Sterilised to ensure the best hygiene, horsehair provides a natural springiness, which doesn't decrease over time. Vi-spring also uses fine, soft materials such as lambswool, silk and mohair, which increase the comfort level. A good cotton-mix is used for the topping, which provides the first layer you lie on beneath the outer cover. This helps to protect your from the spring construction, whilst giving you a comfortable layer immediately underneath you.

Coverings

The quality of the ticking or outer covering used on your mattress is important. A good mattress needs to last you at least 10 years, so it's important that the outer covering is durable, helping to prevent sagging, staining, tearing and a loss of support and comfort. Thin ticking, no matter how attractive the pattern, may actually shorten the life of your mattress.

Vi-spring's choice of materials and the quality it demands makes all the difference between an average mattress and one that's truly special.
