There is a growing demand for locally made products, particularly in the wake of recent global supply chain issues, states Derbyshire-based mattress, pillow and topper manufacturer, Breasley (UK).
The ‘Best of British’ movement celebrates the quality, craftsmanship, and innovation of UK manufacturers, with Breasley a prime example from the furniture and bed industry.
A proud British manufacturer, Breasley designs and manufactures a diverse range of mattresses, pillows, and mattress toppers under its key B2B and consumer-facing brands – Uno, Salus, Amor Signature, Amor Pillow, and EcoBrease.
Breasley plays a vital role in the local economy, providing employment opportunities and skills training. The company’s recent expansion has led to increased production capabilities and storage facilities, which, in turn, has created more job opportunities for the local workforce.
Lauren Barreau, Breasley’s group HR manager, says: “By purchasing Breasley products, customers support the local economy and contribute to the prosperity of the region.”
Breasley’s success can be attributed in part to its highly productive and focused workforce. The company’s dedication to investing in employee training and development ensures that staff possess the necessary skills and expertise to produce top-quality products, and this commitment to excellence is evident in the craftsmanship and durability of Breasley’s product range.
Breasley offers a wide range of products, with price points ranging from £60-600 to suit all customer requirements. This affordability enables customers to experience the comfort and quality of British-made products without breaking the bank, says the bedmaker, adding that the five-year guarantee it offers across all products demonstrates the brand’s confidence in the quality and longevity of its offering.
One of the key advantages of buying British-made products is reduced lead times for delivery. Breasley prides itself on its fast production and lead times, which range from just 24 hours to a maximum of five days, ensuring customers can enjoy their new mattresses, pillows, or mattress toppers as quickly as possible.
Breasley also prioritises sustainability and environmental consciousness in its manufacturing processes. The Uno Series, featuring soya foam, and the EcoBrease collection, which utilises recycled foam, are prime examples of the company’s commitment to reducing its environmental footprint. Breasley says that, by choosing its eco-friendly products, customers can sleep soundly knowing that they are contributing to a greener future.
Breasley recognises that its customers may also have their own unique needs and requirements when it comes to mattresses – which is why the company offers bespoke mattress solutions, designed to fit the specifications and price points of individual retailers. This personalised approach ensures that each retailer receives a product tailored to their requirements, resulting in turn in a more comfortable and satisfying sleep experience for the consumer.
At a time in which consumers are increasingly conscious of their purchasing decisions, it is essential to support local manufacturers that contribute to the economy, the environment, and the overall wellbeing of society, says Breasley’s UK sales director, Mark Hughes
“At Breasley, we exemplify the ‘Best of British’ movement through our dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and ongoing sustainability plans,” he adds. “By choosing Breasley’s products, retailers and the end-consumer not only enjoy the myriad benefits of buying British-made goods, but also actively support the local economy and the environment. Let us all embrace the best of British, and celebrate the exceptional offerings of Breasley (UK)!”
