Here at Hypnos, we’ve been hand-making incredibly comfortable beds and mattresses as a family-run British business for over 100 years, so we fully understand the importance of the British furniture industry to the wider economy.

This is why we’re proud to be wholeheartedly supporting the Buy British Furniture campaign by the National Bed Federation (NBF) which gets underway on Saturday 19th September.

Like many other industries, the British furniture trade has been strongly impacted by COVID-19 and the subsequent lockdown and uncertainty in the economy. However, this campaign is aimed at highlighting the vital role the industry plays in the wider supply chain and is looking to encourage people to support these businesses by ‘Buying British’.

We’re incredibly proud of our track-record as an outstanding British manufacturer and are well aware of the role we play in supporting our suppliers, our expert staff and our valued retailers and hospitality partners.

James Keen, Hypnos’ Chief Executive, said: “Whether it’s our industry-first partnership with Red Tractor assured British farmers, paying them fair prices for natural materials or empowering our Hypnos master craftsmen to create comfort for our customers, the British furniture industry has many levels to it.

“The British furniture industry supports all of these crucial trades, as well as smaller suppliers and workshops across the whole of the UK, with all of these elements combining to create British furniture which is globally renowned for its design and quality.

“We’re passionate about protecting all this fantastic industry and everyone within it that works every day to supply first-class British made furniture and so it was only right we support this Buy British Furniture campaign by the NBF.”

The Buy British Furniture campaign runs from 19th September through to 18th October and to find out more about the initiative and how to get involved, head to the NBF website
