Why Le Briand wool mattress?

For a matchless sleeping experience

The Le Briand wool mattress has it all. All its qualities and benefits are at the service of optimum sleep, so important for good health.

We’ve been making it since 1880, and we’re proud to offer a mattress designed with one thing in mind: to sleep ever more comfortably.

All the reasons to sleep on a Le Briand Wool Mattress

Sleeping confort first

The mattress adapts to your sleeping profile, not the other way around. Hand-crafted, made-to-measure manufacturing allows us to aim for the greatest possible granularity in the sleeping experience.

Benefiting the extraordinary powers of wool

Wool provides both support and softness. It also keeps you drier than any other fiber. Your bed will feel warm in winter and cool in summer.

A long-term investment

While the financial impact of buying an old wool mattress can be hard on the budget, in the long term this effort is transformed into savings.

With comfort in mind

Everything is in place for quality sleep: it has to be restorative.

Establishing a sleeping experience based on your comfort preferences is what we’re all about.

A sheep’s wool mattress creates the conditions for a cozy, restful sleep.

The comfort of a Le Briand mattress also depends on 2 other dimensions:

  • the nature of the filling, in other words, the care and experience of the mattress manufacturer in choosing the best possible materials for restful sleep.
  • the way in which the upholstery is fitted, i.e. the mattress manufacturer’s requirement for a mattress solution that suits the customer.

Long live the circular economy
(Almost) nothing is wasted and a minimum of energy is used in its manufacture.

Long live the national economy
Manufacturing in France is good for everyone. You’ll also reap the rewards.

A responsible economy
A manufacturing philosophy based on respect for the environment.

It enables us to improve quality and traceability, and thus the price of wool for breeders.

Obscelescence programmée
The benefits of wool last, so you never have to buy another one.

It’s a virtuous circle that looks to the future, from those who make Le Briand wool mattress possible, to those who sleep on them.

We can imagine and manufacture entirely in France an object so essential to a balanced life, while weaving a true, local and authentic link between our workshops and our customers committed to ethical consumption.

We offer an alternative that represents an opportunity to reinvent :

  • our relationship with consumption
  • our relationship with things
  • our relationship with nature
  • our relationship with locality

These are just a few highlights to give you an idea of the qualities and benefits of the Le Briand wool mattress, without even denigrating the other mattress options.

After all, it takes all kinds to make a world. Let’s try, as far as possible, to pull it up through our individual choices.

Despite its drawbacks (of course there are some, perfection doesn’t exist), the Matelas en Laine Le Briand has a lot going for it.
