TEMPUR-PEDIC ®
Tempur-Pedic now available on our Comfort Sleepers! The original formula for the Tempur-Pedic® mattress system was developed in the early 1970s at NASA's Ames Research Center in an effort to relieve astronauts of the incredible g-forces experienced during lift-off. The result was an open-celled, breathable material that was temperature-sensitive, viscoelastic, and able to distribute pressure or body weight over the entire surface area. Fagerdala World Foams of Sweden, one of Europe's largest foam producing companies, realized the enormous potential of the material and began experiments in the early 1980's to perfect it for consumer use. After nearly a decade and millions of research dollars, Fagerdala incorporated the remarkable pressure- relieving properties of their new TEMPUR® material into a mattress design and began testing the product in hospitals. In the three years after its introduction in 1991, the Tempur-Pedic® Swedish Mattress (tm) sold more than 50,000 units in Sweden alone, a country of 8 million people. Tempur-Pedic® launched the same products in North America in 1992, and has experienced a similar response. Tempur-Pedic® products have been featured on Dateline NBC, CNN's Business Unusual, CNBC's Power Lunch, the Discovery Channel and NBC's Today Show. Today, the use of TEMPUR® material has expanded to products ranging from office chairs to seat cushions to bicycle seat covers. Finally, the technology revolution that changed how we work, travel and communicate is beginning to change how we sleep, relax, travel and live.
