Sleep industry focuses on scientific basis for beds

The sleep and bed industry appears to be receiving more attention for scientific substantiation, according to trade medium Wonen360. The company Ergomotion is said to play a role in this by incorporating research into ergonomics in the development of beds and sleep systems.

What this substantiation exactly entails remains unclear. According to the source, it is an approach that attempts to improve the way of lying and sleeping. Whether there are already results or how this relates to existing knowledge about sleep and comfort is not mentioned.

The sleep industry has traditionally focused mainly on materials and design. Scientific insights into aspects such as posture, pressure distribution, or temperature regulation still play a limited role. Whether this development will bring about real change remains to be seen.
