100 years of blissful sleep
It was in 1901, at the dawn of the last century, that Vi-Spring was founded. They were the first company to produce the spring interior mattress using a system of individually pocketed springing. This unique system changed the way beds were made to provide a level of comfort, support and durability never dreamed of before. It remains unsurpassed today, continuing to transform the quality of sleep for many people.

In the years following its launch, the Vi-Spring legend continued to grow. In fact, by 1914 Vi-Spring beds were so sought after that they were to be found in luxury London hotels, in clubs and even on board the great Atlantic liners, including the Queen Mary and the tragic Titanic. Discerning travellers quickly demanded the beds for their own homes and the development of department and specialist furniture stores soon created the skilled stockist base that is still in existence to this day.

In the following two decades, many changes were seen in the process of making beds. However, nothing else offered the same degree of Vi-Spring support to the sleeper or the same level of comfort. And it still doesn't.

Vi-Spring has never wavered from its original philosophy which was to use the best craftsmanship and quality materials to produce the finest beds in the world. It is why Vi-Spring beds have been the first choice for anyone who values quality for the past one hundred years.

Now, at the beginning of a new millennium, this ultimate guarantee of quality has assumed an even greater importance. The increased pace and stress of modern life has made a good night's sleep not just desirable but absolutely essential if we are to remain healthy and function at our best. A Vi-Spring bed guarantees the most restful, refreshing sleep that will change your life for good.

Handmade by craftsmen
Wherever possible, natural materials are used to make the beds because they are healthier, safer and more sumptuous to sleep on.

They absorb and release body moisture efficiently and effectively, and won't sag or go lumpy throughout long years of use.

Each Vi-Spring bed is handmade by craftsmen in the traditional way to standards unparalleled anywhere in the world.

Every mattress in the range features at least two rows of hand side-stitching which secure the outer springs to the border at the top and bottom.
