Spring Air Signs Continental Silverline Products as Newest Domestic Licensee

Furniture World News Desk on 6/29/2018

Mattress manufacturer Spring Air International recently announced that it has signed an agreement with Continental Silverline Products LLC in Houston, Texas, to become its newest domestic licensee. Under terms of the agreement, Continental Silverline will begin producing the signature Back Supporter and high-end Chattam & Wells lines on Sept. 1 for distribution in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arkansas and Louisiana.

Founded in 1938, Continental Silverline operates a 100,000-square-foot factory on a 5.5 acre site east of downtown Houston.

“This is an important addition to the Spring Air family as we continue to grow our network of U.S. licensees by adding strong regional producers,” said Spring Air President Nick Bates. “This key territory will allow us to continue to build upon Spring Air’s already strong brand recognition.”

Drew Robins, president of Continental Silverline, said the new agreement gives the company an opportunity to grow its business with a brand that has high name recognition with consumers and within the industry.

“We have been impressed with the Spring Air management team and their efforts to revitalize the brand,” said Robins. “This is a great opportunity for us, and we’re looking forward to working with Spring Air as we expand in the marketplace.”

Continental Silverline’s product line also includes private-label bedding for major retail customers, and the company will continue to produce bedding under the Restonic label.

Bates said the Spring Air licensing territory covered by Continental Silverline is part of a 26-state territory serviced by Texas-based Corsicana Bedding, whose licensing agreement ends Aug 31. He said Spring Air expects to sign additional domestic licensees in the coming weeks.

In early June, Spring Air signed Johnson City Bedding of Johnson City, Tennessee, for the licensing territory of Tennessee, Georgia, Kentucky and Alabama.
