Market of manufacturers of springless mattresses
Despite the presence of several large players, the Russian market of springless orthopedic mattresses is far from saturation, making it one of the most promising in Eastern Europe.
A significant market share is occupied by products of 4 large domestic companies: Ascona, Toris, Consul and Ormatek, as well as one manufacturer from the Republic of Belarus - Vegas.
The main stake Russian manufacturers make on the production of products in the middle price category, available to the general consumer. Also in their assortment there are economy class products and elite models.
The availability of modern production equipment and its own technological base allows Russian companies to manufacture products that meet international quality and safety standards. The products are sold through our own retail chains and through partner companies.
Also on the market are products of the world's largest industrial associations, such as Sealy, Simmons (TM Sleepeezee) and Serta, however, due to the instability of the Russian national currency, the share of imported products is constantly decreasing. The rest of the market is occupied by lesser-known companies from Europe, China, Thailand, Malaysia and other countries.
