CARAVAN MANUFACTURER MATTRESSES

As caravan manufacturers have tried to differentiate their models from rivals’, the quality of the beds has become a focal point, with mattress brands such as Ozio and Hypnos joining their armouries. Companies such as Duvalay have upped the ante.

Discerning customers demand higher-quality mattresses and toppers, recognising the huge importance of sound sleep.

Bailey

Bailey now offers larger beds in a range of styles, from huge make-up doubles to side and central fixed doubles in the rear of the tourer. Each range also offers a twin-bed layout.

The company fits memory foam-topped mattresses, and its springy beech-slat bed bases increase levels of comfort, too.

Coachman

Luxury brand Coachman uses sprung construction upholstery. For its fixed beds, it provides high-quality, foam-construction mattresses, ensuring excellent levels of comfort.

Elddis

Elddis caravans come with fixed-bed mattresses that are lightweight and supportive. They feature soft-touch Argentum+ mattress fabrics which have antibacterial and anti-allergic qualities, based on silver-ion technology.

Buyers can opt for a Hypnos mattress on fixed-double and twin-bed models.

Swift

Swift caravans have been fitted with Duvalay mattresses since 2014. When Duvalay technology was introduced, I had what I think was the best night’s caravan sleep ever, in a Swift Challenger.

Today, the exclusive-to-swift Duvalay Duvalite Apollo Luxe mattress has Freshtec, which Swift says is a high-quality foam, maximising airflow for a cooler and ultimately more comfortable night’s sleep. These mattresses are only available on fixed beds.
