Relyon

Relyon are a bed and mattress company[1] claiming to have 'the best beds in the world'.[2] Originally named by the founding Price family as Price Brothers and Co. they began trading as wool merchants and the business evolved rapidly into manufacturing beds. In 1935 the name was changed to Relyon as the goal was to design beds that you could truly “rely on” for a good night’s sleep. Their philosophy is "your comfort is our paramount priority".

As members of FISP,[3][4] Relyon are environmentally aware and adopt many green practices including sourcing their wood from FSC or PEFC sources. They were the first bed manufacturer to be awarded the accolade of the Production Guild Mark of the Worshipful Community of Furniture as well as being the first to receive the FIRA Gold Product Certification[5] on their contract range of bed sets for the contract and hospitality market.

Relyon specialise in divan beds and mattresses, but do also manufacture guest beds, headboards and other bedroom furniture.

Today, Relyon's workforce sits at almost 500[6] and their headquarters remains in Wellington,[7] Somerset. Their beds carry a 5-year guarantee as standard.
