At Snoozel Green, we’re proud to say we don’t just design our mattresses — we build them, too. Every Snoozel Green mattress is handmade in our very own factory in Sri Lanka, where ethics, sustainability, and craftsmanship come together to create something genuinely rare in the sleep industry: total transparency.
Here’s how your mattress is made, and why that matters.
We Own the Entire Process
Most mattress brands outsource manufacturing to third-party factories — often halfway around the world, with little to no visibility into how things are really done. At Snoozel Green, we own our factory and work directly with our team on the ground.
This gives us full control over:
-
Materials — we choose only the best organic inputs
-
Labour standards — every worker is paid a fair wage and works in safe, respectful conditions
-
Waste and emissions — we oversee energy use, water management, and recycling practices
Local Sourcing, Global Impact
Our factory is located close to our raw material sources. That means:
-
Shorter supply chains
-
Lower transport emissions
-
Support for local farmers and rubber tappers
We source:
-
GOLS-certified organic latex from rubber plantations in Sri Lanka
-
GOTS-certified organic cotton from ethical cotton cooperatives
-
Organic wool from nearby smallholder farms (for our non-vegan models)
By investing in local materials and labour, we uplift entire communities while reducing our global footprint.
Skilled Craftsmanship, Not Mass Production
Each mattress is handcrafted — not rolled off a conveyor belt. Our skilled craftspeople:
-
Layer and cut materials by hand
-
Stitch covers using traditional techniques
-
Assemble the mattress without chemical glues
This approach creates a better-quality product and supports the preservation of traditional skills.
Fair Trade Principles in Action
We don’t just talk about ethics — we embed them into our daily operations. Our factory adheres to Fair Trade principles, ensuring:
-
Fair wages and worker rights
-
No child labour or forced labour
-
Empowerment and training opportunities for all staff
In addition, we provide health insurance, paid leave, and profit-sharing incentives to our workers — because people matter.
No Greenwashing — Just Real Sustainability
Because we oversee every stage of production, we can guarantee that our mattresses are truly eco-friendly:
-
No synthetic foams or chemical flame retardants
-
No plastic packaging
-
No off-gassing or harmful emissions
We even compost fabric offcuts, recycle waste latex, and use energy-efficient machinery to keep our carbon footprint low.
Why It Matters
In an industry full of vague claims and hidden practices, owning our factory allows us to do things the right way — for the planet, for our customers, and for our team.
When you choose Snoozel Green, you’re not just buying a mattress. You’re investing in a global system of fairness, transparency, and regenerative design.
