SSA Executive Director Tambra Jones confirmed that there are five new companies presenting mattress/bedding products as members of the Specialty Sleep Association (SSA.) “We draw in hundreds of retailers and industry guests, and we continue to serve as an advocate, a strong marketing platform for new companies, and continued support for expanding entrepreneurial member companies,” says Jones.

The five new exhibitors include: B-Sensible, “Introducing a new smart bedding concept” enjoying the comfort of the mattress and pillow while receiving a host of benefits using BSensible Fitted Sheets and Pillowcases that work as Protectors; Cadence Keen ( CKI Solutions), which will introduce their new BedMadeEZ® Bed Maker Kit for the mattress retail market; IVO Mattresses, who will introduce Arcusbeds, their new line of top-quality natural and organic mattresses from Europe; Orthex Canada, featuring Posture Cushions and Posture Pillows which are created with the objective in mind – of “making a difference in people’s lives”; and Swiss Bliss Mattress “The Original Swiss Made Mattress” featuring their double-sided specialty foam mattresses imported from Switzerland.

BSensible welcomes sleepers to enjoy the comfort of the mattress and pillow while receiving a host of benefits using BSensible Fitted Sheets and Pillowcases that work as Protectors. Using their own Dermofresh©, processing technology the company obtains a fabric that it claims is the perfect blend of Tencel© fiber, Smartcel © Sensitive (cosmetic grade zinc oxide), and a polyurethane membrane which acts like a second skin. Using an exclusive thousand-point laminating system, the fabric is laminated onto a technical polyurethane membrane that is waterproof, breathable, and stretchable. The membrane acts like a second skin, doesn’t let liquids seep through, and is breathable. The membrane’s stretchability and thinness make it completely unnoticeable enhancing the comfort when you sleep. This new concept of 2 in 1, mattress protector/pillow protector and fitted sheet/pillowcase is available in a full range of neutral colors that matches to the most bedding products. BSensible reports that their product innovation is exclusive worldwide, and that all these properties will not go away after repeated washing.
