What’s so special about British
pocket-sprung beds and mattresses that
makes people in
Switzerland want to buy them? Here are
two examples.
Consider:
A long-established British
company, over 100 years old, treasured
by and loyal
to the residents of the small English town
where it is the main employer, still in the hands
of its proud founding family.
- The company’s beautiful beds
are the choice of HM Queen Elizabeth
II and proudly bear her Royal Warrant.
- Its beds are slept on and enjoyed
by guests of hotels all over the World.
(Please ask for a list).
- Fathers and sons work intensively side
by side to hand-make fabulous mattresses,
proudly using skills such as hand side-stitching
passed down from generation to generation.
- Into each spring goes 48” (1200mm)
of tempered steel; each spring is then
individually pocketed; thousands of these
springs are covered in the finest materials
to produce mattresses which are the envy
of manufacturers all over the World.
- Bases too contain 1000 pocketed springs
or more to provide additional comfort
and support, meaning there are sometimes
up to five layers of geometric springing
to provide only the best sleep experience
and the resulting health and well-being
benefits.
- Its products are so special – and
represent such great value for money – that
some customers make the trip from Switzerland
to the UK especially to visit the factory’s
showroom (only 45 minutes from Heathrow
or Marylebone Station) to see the complete
range, in the knowledge that they can
still save €thousands against the
cost of an equivalent Swedish model.
(Whilst many people living in Switzerland
are, of course, wealthy, they are not
stupid in consumer matters)! The showroom
visit is a pleasant, relaxed experience.
A happy greeting; no “pushy” salesmen;
peace and quiet; no time constraints;
advice offered; questions answered courteously;
and an English pub almost on the doorstep!
This
company is Hypnos Ltd. Hypnos works closely with British Beds
Worldwide Ltd to ensure that anyone around
the World can buy its esteemed products,
knowing that the goods will be closely
VIP-checked before being wrapped because
they are being sent abroad; that they will
be specially wrapped for export; and that
they will be carefully and professionally
transported into Switzerland for delivery
into the customer’s bedroom for an
all-inclusive price from British Beds Worldwide
Ltd. (The only “extra” is Swiss
VAT, around half the UK rate which, of
course, will already have been deducted).
And British Beds Worldwide Ltd will honour
the terms of the Hypnos UK guarantee, even
though the goods have been exported.
Hypnos’s owning family name is “Keen”.
That almost says it all!
How’s that for special?
Consider:
- A design
engineer with flair, pride and a
love for wood.
- Lengths of wood from the trunk of
aged English Ash, still with bark intact
- A dedicated team of skilled craftsmen
- A workshop in a small Cotswolds town,
right in the heart of England, proud
of their workmanship
- Flexibility, knowledge, and a desire
to please, all combining to provide a
bespoke service
- A discerning customer requiring hand-made
bed-frames and adult bunk-beds made to
order to exacting specifications to furnish
the bedrooms of her high-quality ski
chalets.
- Friendly and free consultation at
the workshop with the designer-owner
of the business.
- The beautiful end-products delivered
direct from the UK into the bedrooms
of the chalets.
That company is Cotswold Caners. Cotswold Caners cuts from the wood and
proudly makes such beautiful beds for customers
all over the World, supplied and delivered
into their homes by British Beds Worldwide
Ltd.
What’s so special?
It’s difficult to summarise, but
behind the craftsmanship, the exemplary
quality and the finest materials, there’s
an underlying pride. The mattress-maker
who takes pride in the quality of his side-stitching
skills, the wood-worker who takes pride
in the finish of the bedstead, and the
directors of British Beds Worldwide Ltd
who take pride in the degree of friendly
help and personal advice they give by ‘phone
or email prior to order, and the level
of service they and their carriers provide
on delivery and afterwards. Getting paid
is only part of the story – the other
half is the pride taken when that service
is recognized and mentioned all over Switzerland
in conversation!
