Established in 1999, Limelight Beds is a bed wholesaler based in Barwell, Leicestershire, that offers unique designs, exclusive models, a de-branded catalogue, and plain packaging to support customers’ own brands.
In 2024, the business achieved FSC (C203924) Chain of Custody certification. “This is the second phase of our sustainable sourcing journey,” states Limelight Beds. “Two years ago, we started offering recycled fabrics on one of our ranges. It has been so successful that one of our largest customers has designed an exclusive range using the same fabric and FSC-certified wood. Each bedframe sold from these products is now utilising up to 190 recycled plastic bottles that previously might have gone to landfill.
“On top of this, we are forward thinking. We aren’t looking to jump on a bandwagon and follow what everyone else is doing, we want other companies to follow us. We’re always thinking about where fabrics are going, what shapes are coming into fashion (and what’s going out!).
“Our big focus currently is looking at more eco-friendly and sustainable products, and space-saving models. Being FSC certified shows that Limelight is taking sustainable sourcing seriously. We already have two product ranges launched in 2024 with FSC-certified wood used for all the wooden components. The plan is to continue this strategy for all new product launches moving forward, and we’ll be launching three more FSC-certified products at the January Furniture Show (taking place at the NEC Birmingham from 19th-22nd this month, stand 5-H15),” the supplier concludes.
