In 2008 the business made the decision to build a purpose-built vertically integrated facility. The facility was built to serve and support the UK\u2019s major mattress producers.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">After continued growth, the business expanded the site to further increase warehousing capability and add a new quality and testing laboratory accompanied by employee training and welfare facilities. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to announce that our business has recently completed the transition from LP9000 to ISO9001 for the manufacture, warehouse and distribution of bedding components and products as certified by NSF-ISR,\u201d Ross reveals. \u201cThis certification is testament to the high level of quality, service, and reliability we can provide our customers on an ongoing basis.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Seamless support and service<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cThe business is constantly moving forward. From a continuous improvement perspective, the company has recently invested in a state-of-the-art automation project, which is due to come online towards the end of 2024. So, expect more information and future announcements in early 2025.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cOur warehouse facility is world class. Hand in hand with our manufacturing technology, this strategically positions us to react to customer requirements enabling us to remain responsive to their needs. By providing increased flexibility, we ultimately help to reduce our customers\u2019 reliance on holding surplus inventory and ultimately reduce their working capital. We operate a uniform policy that ensures we deliver consistently high-quality products regardless of type, size or specification, so customers can approach us with the confidence that we will provide the support and services they require.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Turning to the company\u2019s product portfolio, Ross continues: \u201cWe offer four primary product groups: Continuous Coils, Open Coils, Pocket Coils, and NanoCoils.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cPocket Coils- our broadest product group &#8211; is the primary solution on offer within the industry and generally forms the inner core of a mattress. NanoCoils are a smaller spring designed to be a comfort layer product situated within the filling layers of a mattress, as opposed to the core spring unit<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Robust relationships<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cWe\u2019re currently working alongside our customers to identify strategic opportunities to provide more value upstream products,\u201d he adds. \u201cWhile our main focus is providing mattress components to major players in the UK\u2019s bedding industry, we\u2019re also thinking about what we can do to help streamline our customers\u2019 production processes or strengthen the ways in which their facilities operate.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">When it comes to sustainability, Leggett &amp; Platt takes its commitment to environmental responsibility seriously. \u201cIt\u2019s no secret that we\u2019re a big consumer of electricity, but we\u2019ve got contracts in place with our utility companies to provide us with as much green or renewable energy as possible,\u201d Ross explains. \u201cWe\u2019re also preparing to install solar panels on the roof of our factory in Barnsley.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-51384\" src=\"https:\/\/manufacturing-today.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/12\/Leggett-Platt-230-body-image-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"425\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/manufacturing-today.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/12\/Leggett-Platt-230-body-image-2.jpg 425w, https:\/\/manufacturing-today.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/12\/Leggett-Platt-230-body-image-2-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px\" \/>\u201cWe\u2019re also working closely with our supplier base from a recyclable material perspective, aiming to increase the amount of recycled content in raw materials. For the steel mills we work with, for instance, we\u2019re discussing the possibility of reusing scrap content. In terms of our distribution network, we\u2019re exploring ways to reduce our carbon footprint by optimizing our delivery process.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cOn a case-by-case basis, we\u2019re slowly transitioning from diesel or petrol cars to hybrid or electric vehicles (EVs), with on-site charging points having been recently installed. We\u2019re also replacing ageing energy consumption infrastructure, such as implementing LED lighting across our sites.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Considering Leggett &amp; Platt\u2019s commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability, the business will continue its current trajectory of successful growth at the forefront of the UK\u2019s bedding market. It\u2019s certainly no surprise that L&amp;P Springs UK has been named as the best bedding component supplier in the UK for the fourth consecutive year by the readers of Furniture News, which is testament to the company\u2019s excellent level of quality and service.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201c2024 has been a tough year for the bedding industry at large, so 2025 will see us focus on gaining traction and getting our recent investments on line, which will put us in a good position during 2025 and onwards,\u201d Ross concludes. \u201cFurther afield, we want to continue working collaboratively alongside bedding manufacturers to strengthen those relationships and create robust partnerships that foster a seamless supply chain.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/beddingcomponents-intl.com\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">beddingcomponents-intl.com<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u00a0<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/leggettplatt.madeinyorkshire.com\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">leggettplatt.madeinyorkshire.com<\/span><\/b><\/a><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leggett &amp;
