To welcome in the New Year, Devonshire Living unveil their new logo, and showcase the very best of their offer at the INDX Furniture Show this January.

Why a new logo, and why now?

We are constantly reinventing ourselves to stay flexible in what is becoming a very volatile and fast-paced market. Adaptability has been key to our strategy these past few years and we wanted our brand identity to reflect that with a more contemporary logo. We are constantly assessing our values and character as a business, and feel that this new logo is a better representation of retaining our traditional roots but moving more to the forefront of the modern market with our products and services.

What can retailers expect to find at INDX this January?

Continuing our theme of blending traditional and modern, we will be showcasing the very best of our long-term ranges alongside our newest collections launched this year, and fresh projects for 2025.

We will have on the stand our Dorset collection, which has been topping the leaderboard for the last 12 years and has grown to include 135 pieces across 3 finishes. On the other end of the spectrum, we will have our Bergen collection launched this year to resounding success, and Lydford Oak – a new finish option for our award-winning Lydford Painted collection.

Further expanding on the success of Lydford, we will also be launching the range in brand-new dining pieces, due to an overwhelming number of requests.

Why should retailers choose Devonshire Living as their wholesaler?

There has been a lot of turmoil in the import business this year – with shipping rate fluctuations, extended lead times, and key suppliers restructuring or unable to continue trading. Our aim is to offer a level of stability by keeping our offer simple, honest and refined. We aim to keep all 500+ of our products at least 95% stocked in our UK warehouse at any one time, own our transport fleet, and employ our drivers so that we know our deliveries will be quick, efficient and up to our standards.

We have QC teams both in the Middle East and here in Devon, to keep on top of quality through every stage of production. We have our own product development team and work closely with our factories to ensure best practices are adhered to, and are working on reducing our environmental impact and carbon footprint, such as reducing the amount of plastic in our packaging going forwards.

Find Devonshire Living on Stand P10 at INDX FURNITURE January 17th-20th 2025, or contact enquiries@devonshireliving.co.uk .

Ebrahim Patel, Director at Vogue Beds, explains why its new Climate Collection is a game-changer for the business as it enters its next phase of growth.

Bed and mattress manufacturer Vogue Beds has been constantly innovating its products with the last few years no exception. Developing its range of sustainably-focused products, the recent NBF Bed Show and Autumn Furniture Show, in September and October respectively, were the launch pads for Vogue’s new Climate Collection, which has already created huge interest and orders with retail partners.

Post-show, Vogue detailed just why its Climate Collection has been an evolution of product development and how the range will build on its next phase of growth. “We’ve had such a great response to our Climate mattress, an eco range mattress collection,” Ebrahim said. “Since the two shows, we’re now seeing orders come through, which is fantastic, and we are hoping to build on this, offering our customers a true sustainable option.”

The Climate Collection features three pocket counts, 1000 Pocket, 1500 Pocket & 2000 Pocket, with all the Pocket springs approved and certified by the Vegan Society ensuring no animal content is used in the manufacturing process. In fact, that’s where the collection originally started some two years ago.

“Our journey for the new Climate mattress collection started with the development of the Vegan mattress back in 2022, when we were the first NBF manufacturer to make a Vegan Society certified mattress,” Ebrahim explained.

“Over the last two years learning, understanding the market with customer and retail research, we have progressed this mattress to the next level. This moves us beyond just ‘Vegan Friendly’, offering the retailer and consumer the very best of sustainable, recyclable and comfortable mattress choices.”

The three mattresses offer a different comfort/tension level – Meadow 1000 offers a Medium Soft feel; Floral 1500 offers a Medium Firm Feel and the Forest 2000 offers a Firm feel.

The Climate Collection is designed to be entirely recyclable too, contributing significantly to the reduction of mattresses that end up in landfills. Furthermore, a standard double mattress from the collection is crafted using around 350 recycled plastic bottles, playing a key role in preventing bottles from polluting oceans each year.

“The Climate Mattress collection features 100% viscose fabric which is a plant base cover, which allows it to breathe, the fabric is unique in its construction and easy to recyclable,” Ebrahim said.

“The fillings also consist of recycled plastic, from the spring insulated pad to the specialist fibre fillings offering support and comfort. All the fillings are made from recycled plastics, which brings it in line with circular economy, where materials never become waste and are regenerated.”

In keeping with its environmental efforts, for every mattress Vogue sells, it plants a tree with its partners at more trees. “You will get a full certificate as evidence that your purchase has helped offset the carbon of the delivery and supply chain,” Ebrahim added.

“Sustainability is more important than ever in the modern world, making our Climate mattresses the conscious choice for consumers.

“Our new collection offers a diverse range of options tailored to meet different tastes, whilst still upholding sustainability. After all, the key ingredient to a mattress has to be the quality of sleep it offers and we’ve been perfecting this with our high-quality products for decades.

“We realised over the last few years that although the Vegan story was powerful, the end user/consumer message required a better explanation of the benefits of these mattresses. Our Climate Mattress collection provides this message and we’re really excited about our next stage of innovation and growth.”

Vogue Beds will be exhibiting at the January Furniture Show next month on Stand: 5-C40 where the Climate Collection will be on display.

Gábor Hangosi, from Purman, talks about transforming industrial waste into sustainable furniture.

Recycling rigid polyurethane (PU) foam offers transformative benefits, particularly through an innovative upcycling process that repurposes waste materials from sources like warehouse insulation, refrigerated trucks, and cold storage facilities.

Used widely for its thermal insulation properties, PU foam poses a significant disposal challenge as it does not decompose in landfills and is non-biodegradable. This article outlines how PU foam, once considered waste, is given a new life through a method that creates high-quality, durable materials suitable for industries such as furniture manufacturing, construction, logistics, and packaging.

This upcycling approach, developed by industry innovators, diverts rigid PU foam from wasteful disposal processes like incineration and landfilling, which harm the environment. Instead, the foam is collected, shredded, and combined with lignin—a natural byproduct of the paper industry—to form a durable, eco-friendly material ideal for sustainable product manufacturing. This method stands out as both a solution to industrial waste and an exciting development in creating environmentally responsible, long-lasting products.

One of the core advantages of this method is its contribution to sustainability. Traditional disposal methods like incineration release toxic emissions and contribute to greenhouse gases, while landfilling PU foam leads to environmental pollution, as the foam is non-biodegradable and occupies landfill space for centuries. By mechanically recycling PU foam and binding it with lignin, this process minimizes carbon emissions, avoids the need for harmful adhesives, and promotes a circular economy. The result is a substantial reduction in the environmental footprint of PU foam waste and the sustainable use of natural resources.

In the furniture industry, recycled PU foam provides high-quality, durable materials that excel in both strength and fire resistance. These properties make it ideal for structural components like furniture frames and bases. Additionally, the material’s versatility in design enables it to be molded into various shapes, allowing designers to create innovative and customizable furniture pieces. This flexibility in design has aesthetic appeal and aligns with consumer demand for eco-friendly products. As more consumers prioritize sustainability, furniture crafted from recycled PU foam stands out, providing not only functional beauty but also a compelling story of environmental responsibility.

Beyond furniture, recycled PU foam offers excellent thermal insulation properties, with a thermal conductivity ranging between 0.030 and 0.034 W/(m·K). This makes it suitable for applications in the construction industry, where energy-efficient materials are increasingly in demand. The high mechanical strength of the recycled material, exceeding 100 kPa at 10% deformation, also meets construction standards, ensuring durability and longevity.

The economic benefits of recycling PU foam are equally significant. This method offers cost-effective waste management and potential revenue streams from recycled products, reducing raw material costs and waste disposal fees. Additionally, companies that adopt this recycling approach can increase demand for their products among eco-conscious consumers and stakeholders. With lower initial investment and quick returns, this method supports sustainable practices that are both financially and environmentally advantageous.

The upcycling of PU foam supports a more sustainable future. By reimagining waste materials as valuable resources, this approach addresses urgent environmental challenges, fulfills industry demands for durable and sustainable materials, and provides an economically viable path forward. As more industries embrace this innovative method, the potential for a circular economy—where waste is minimized, and resources are conserved—becomes an achievable reality.

Award-winning US bedding brand Purecare is maintaining its momentum in the UK market and is set to display its innovative products during the January Furniture Show.

It’s been quite a year for Purecare. Since its launch at the January Furniture Show at the beginning of 2024, the brand has continued to raise its exposure, reputation and momentum within the industry. This has been fuelled by event attendances and award recognition.

Following a debut event at JFS24, Purecare joined the Minerva Buying Group as an approved supplier in May, further solidifying its reputation as a trusted partner for retailers. This accomplishment was supported during the Spring Furniture & Beds Show, where Purecare made its debut as an official supplier.

Adding to its bow, Purecare became an official supplier to the AIS buying group with the brand already experiencing great success. Following on from another popular INDX event, Purecare recently exhibited at the NBF Bed Show in Telford, which was a “major triumph”, serving as the perfect platform to introduce three advanced cooling pillows, each designed to elevate the sleep experience.

The newly launched pillows bring cutting-edge cooling technology to the forefront, raising the bar for sleep comfort, and were also on display during the Minerva Autumn Furniture Show at NAEC Stoneleigh Park.

“The Nano Memory Foam Pillow features Memory Foam Crumb and PureCool thermoregulating fabric, delivering optimal comfort and advanced temperature regulation,” Purecare said. “The Groove Contouring Memory Foam Pillow is designed for front sleepers, offering adaptive support with a thinner core and strategic zoning.

“Combined with advanced airflow technology and a cold-to-the-touch cover, it ensures a truly restorative sleep experience. Lastly, the Wave Pillow integrates dual layers of Gel Memory Foam and Memory Foam to provide targeted pressure relief for side and back sleepers, supporting the head, neck, and shoulders. The wave’s cool-to-the-touch surface adds a touch of luxury to its exceptional comfort.”

Alongside the pillows, Purecare also displayed an expansive range of mattress protectors and encasements, aimed to enhance every individual’s unique sleep experience. These products included the award-winning OmniGuard Mattress Protector – a particular highlight of the year for the brand.

“The highlight of the year was our OmniGuard Advance Mattress Protector earning the prestigious Good Housekeeping Approved Award 2024,” the company said. “This accolade underscores Purecare’s commitment to producing innovative sleep products that meet the highest industry standards.

“The Good Housekeeping Institute’s rigorous evaluation considered aspects such as durability, effectiveness, and ease of use, with the mattress protector excelling in liquid repellence, allergen resistance, and quality maintenance even after multiple washes.”

The OmniGuard Advance Mattress Protector stands out by providing comprehensive coverage to shield the top and sides of the mattress from moisture, stains, allergens, dust mites, mould, and mildew. It fits like a fitted sheet, making it suitable for various mattress depths and adjustable bases, helping create a healthier sleep environment while extending mattress life.

As Purecare celebrates these achievements, the brand remains dedicated to delivering superior sleep products and will be returning to where it first launched in the UK next month, The January Furniture Show 2025. Visitors are encouraged to “explore the latest in sleep innovation” with Purecare situated in Hall 5 on Stand D42.

“We’ve achieved remarkable success this year, marked by significant milestones and growing recognition in the bedding industry,” the company said. “We’re excited to be returning to the January Furniture Show and look forward to seeing customers new and old there.”

Amthal Karim – Head of Design at Furniture And Choice – shares her monthly overview of on-trend styles and interior looks currently inspiring furniture buyers.

Dining furniture is being transformed with the introduction of mixed material design. We’ve noticed an increase in dining table styles that mix wood and metal, marble and wood and – more recently – contemporary stone with fluted wood.

The aesthetic advantage of the mixed materials trend in the design world is that it creates interest, depth and elevates a room making it feel more expensive. It’s the juxtaposition of varying textures and layering of elements in your interior space that creates a designer look. It shows that the space has been thought about, the layers considered, and the furniture chosen carefully.

The mixed materials trend is also exciting because customers can choose from endless combinations of materials to create their own look – it’s like buying a bespoke product. The style of a piece of furniture can be completely re-imagined by picking a different combination. A dark, walnut wood dining table with black metal legs works perfectly for a Modern Industrial kitchen-diner. The same table design with a marble tabletop and brass-effect legs instead and now it’s more fitting for a luxury dining room with panelled walls.

When it comes to a dining table that combines wood with glass or marble with metal, then the quality and craftmanship of each material is essential. Using stone-effect finishes and powder-coated metals in contemporary furniture enables retailers to market them as long-lasting pieces. However, the challenge is producing dining tables in these materials that can withstand everyday use – at an affordable price. A paper-effect marble or travertine stone finish offers a choice of hundreds of patterns and colours for the customer to choose from. But more importantly, it’s durable enough for regular use and easy to maintain. 

Of course, it’s not the dining table alone that benefits from the mixed materials trend – it’s the entire dining set. It’s no longer fashionable to match your dining table to your chairs so ‘mix and match’ is in vogue. Customers can create drama in their dining room by combining and contrasting shape, texture and even colour. A modern, wishbone dining chair is sophisticated when paired with a slab-style table in statement marble. Equally, an extending glass dining table is beautifully balanced with curved, velvet dining chairs.

Whether you choose to combine practical with luxe or contrast rustic against modern – the mixed materials trend blurs the lines of traditional design allowing you to create your own individual style.

Gallery Direct already offer an extensive selection of products to customers, but are continually developing new ones to expand their offering and keep their catalogue fresh.

As part of their AW24 Collection, Gallery launched range extensions to some of their popular chairs and sofas, as well as new ones. The new products featured a selection of green seating, an on-trend colour at the moment, along with others.

Gallery’s Datsun sofas and chairs feature a sleek solid wooden frame with beautifully curved arms and upholstered seat and back with decorative channel stitching. To add to the ebony and brown leather versions of the sofa and chair, there are now beautiful green and charcoal bouclé options, as well as a cream ‘sheepskin’ chair. A footstool has also been introduced in the green and grey bouclé, with ebony and brown leather footstools to be added to their catalogue shortly.

The Hawking range, which featured brown, charcoal and ember chairs, lounge chairs and stools, has also had lovely deep green versions added. All these stylish seats feature a beautiful, curved design with a stunning metal frame and upholstered seat, combining comfort and style.

New additions include the Blackhall Armchair and the Sloane Dining Chair. Blackhall, which is upholstered in beautiful green leather, offers scandi inspired design with its sleek, minimalist frame, whilst the buttoned back adds a touch of refinement and traditional craftsmanship. A brown leather version is soon to be added to the catalogue. Sloane features a lovely, curved design and is offered in a choice of green or grey bouclé. It combines modern aesthetics with high-quality craftsmanship.

As well as showcasing their AW24 Collection, Gallery recently previewed their SS25 Collection to customers at an @Home event. The stunning SS25 collection features a huge selection of new furniture lines, including range extensions to several of their popular collections as well as a whole host of brand-new models.

One of the ranges seeing an extension of the pieces offered is the beautiful Madrid living and dining collection. The new lines include a nest of tables, a smaller sideboard, an extending dining table and a dining chair. All are offered in a choice of oak or walnut and feature timeless elegant design for which Madrid is renowned.

Gallery’s Vancouver collection has been extended to include bedroom furniture. All offer stylish, practical storage – even the wooden bedstead has two large drawers. These beautiful pieces offer a sophisticated yet rustic look. The clever use of a mill saw gives the characteristic features of cross sawn timber to create a tactile, dramatic finish.  

The new ranges and lines include a stunning bedroom, living & dining collection, more living & dining ranges, occasional tables, seating and upholstered bedsteads. These will all be launched in January, so look out for more information in the January issue or contact your Key Account Manager.

A Chinese bedside crib has been rejected at the UK border after presenting a high risk of injuries due to being insufficiently stable.

The product, which originates from China and under the brand Hush By Venture, is described as a grey bedside attaching crib for a young child.

The Office for Product Safety and Standards stated: “The product presents a high risk of injuries because it was found to overturn at less than 30N in the rocking configuration.

“If a child’s parent/guardian expects a certain amount of force to be needed to push the rocker, it may overturn and therefore the baby may be ejected from the rocker, receiving injuries. The product also requires improvement to marking, labelling and documentation.

“The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005. The import has been rejected at the border.”

At the NBF Bed Show in September 2024, GNG Group proudly unveiled their GelMed collection — an innovative range of hybrid mattresses that builds on the success of the KomfiMed collection, launched in 2023. 

Utilising the business’ extensive experience in supplying mattresses to the healthcare markets, GelMed is a next-generation collection that provides targeted, responsive support, superior comfort and enhanced durability. Medically-proven foam technology has been specifically designed to reduce pressure points and improve weight distribution across the mattress, a key concern in healthcare environments. GNG has bought this technology to the retail market, and combined it with layers of cooling True Gel, sustainable Ecofoam and adaptive pocket springs, making GelMed ideal for a wide range of sleep styles. Both GelMed and KomfiMed collections feature a luxurious quilted cover, offering a soft, breathable surface that complements the advanced mattress technology.

Richard Gretton, Commercial Director at GNG Group, explains: “As an NHS-approved supplier, we are a trusted name in the healthcare sector. Last year we provided over 70,000 mattresses to the NHS, and it is this experience within the healthcare industry, combined with our commitment to bringing innovation to the consumer market, which has led to the development of the KomfiMed and GelMed collections. These mattresses bring the same medically-proven foam technology that we use within our healthcare products, to the consumer market at a competitive price.”

GNG’s in house pressure mapping technology was essential in understanding weight distribution and pressure build up across the ranges. The mattresses were tested across a variety of body shapes and sizes, and the results showed they respond dynamically to each individual, ensuring optimal pressure relief where needed most and providing adaptive support through the night. With a range of offerings available across the collections, KomfiMed and Gel Med support a wide range of different body types and sleep styles.

The GelMed and KomfiMed collections are a testament to GNG’s dedication to health-focused, innovative sleep products. With its medically-backed technology, superior pressure-relieving comfort, and cooling True Gel technology, these collections provides a unique solution for those seeking the ultimate in sleep support.

Kitchen and bedroom furniture retailer Wren has announced the launch of a new collection of customisable sliding wardrobes, now available to design in-store.

This innovative collection has been designed with personalisation in mind, offering flexibility and stylish solutions for those looking to create their perfect bedroom.

“Recognising that every home is unique, these easily adaptable wardrobes are designed to fit seamlessly into any space. With heights ranging from 1000mm to 2750mm available, there is a solution for the most challenging layouts, including the highest of ceilings,” Wren said.

“When renovating, one of the most difficult tasks can be filling an awkward area, especially ones which are sloped. These wardrobe doors are ideal for filling these difficult spaces, with the doors and internal shelving being easily configured to perfectly utilise the space.”

Available in a multitude of silk, gloss, satin colours and mirrored finishes, Wren’s latest addition to their bedroom collections offer versatility to cater to a wide range of personal tastes and budgets.

“For those who prefer a more traditional wardrobe, the Shaker Ermine finish is a classic choice, or for those looking to join the current earthy, natural trend, the textured oak and walnut Elements finishes will add instant character to personalised designs,” Wren added.

Award-winning German bedroom manufacturer Wiemann is to reveal new ranges and a host of product updates at the January Furniture Show (NEC, Birmingham, January 19-22 2025).

Stylish, contemporary and chic, the new collections are high quality and flexible. They are practical and stunning, offering something to suit every size or type of bedroom. Some of the new ranges fall into Wiemann’s well respected and sought-after premium VIP category. These are as the name suggests, the byword in quality for wardrobes.

Kai Schwenke, Wiemann’s export manager, said: “Customers know our high standards across all our products and the new ranges are no exception. We have shown prototypes at the MOW trade exhibition in Germany in the Autumn and they have been enthusiastically received.

“We are looking forward to launching them on the UK market at the NEC. As with all Wiemann products, their hallmark is to offer a total bedroom solution to suit any home as well as showing a commitment to helping retailers grow sales and profit.”

The new collections, on show in Hall 4 Stand C26, will complement Wiemann’s existing premium VIP ranges, including best-selling, award winning collections Monaco, Denver, Lagos and most recent addition, New York.

Simon Hewitt, md of Wiemann’s sole agents for the UK and Ireland, Litmus Furniture, said: “We have some fantastic products lined up for launch in January 2025 plus some new finishes which are sure to excite buyers. These include a matt foil for carcass and doors and a glass finish.

“Choosing different options on doors and carcasses can completely transform the look of a range. Our designers have thought carefully about this to ensure consumers can find the perfect match for their room, whatever its style or shape.”

Wiemann’s current VIP high-flying collections include Denver, Lagos, Monaco and New York. Customers love Denver’s urban chic decking-effect panel on slider doors for an on-trend look and Lagos has been a market star since its launch. Both are excellent examples of different finishes and colours achieving contrasting styles.

The Monaco system continues to be a solid best-seller with new accessories added all the time. Whatever a customer wants, Monaco can achieve it with sliding, hinged and bi-fold doors, multiple size options, drawers, colours and effects. There is also a matching collection of bedsides, chests of drawers and other accessories.

New York is contemporary and classic featuring solid wood doors and optional contrasting timber inlays and stylish downlighters.

Simon added: “We have been successfully working with Wiemann for more than 20 years now and have always been impressed with the company’s dedication to excellent design, quality and value. This is all backed up with our five-star customer support service of which we are immensely proud. Wiemann is a tried, trusted and reliable brand, qualities which are so important in today’s climate and which we value highly.

“We can’t wait to welcome friends new and existing to our stand, unveil and share our collections for 2025.”

Brintons, the heritage carpet brand, is proud to announce the launch of its first carpet collection in collaboration with the V&A (Victoria and Albert Museum).

Available for the commercial market, the Design Discoveries collection features six striking designs inspired by the extraordinary works of French artist Emile-Allain Séguy’s pochoir creations, in the V&A collections.

Séguy, celebrated for his innovative and captivating depictions of natural forms, became well-known in the 1920s for his geometric interpretations of butterflies, motifs which have fascinated designers for decades. The new carpet designs showcase the enduring beauty and versatility of Séguy’s artistic vision.

Designs have been specifically selected and reimagined for Brinton’s commercial clients, carpets can be selected from the inspirational designs as they are shown, recoloured using Brintons Design Studio Online platform or customised by working in collaboration with the Brintons design team to meet individual project requirements. 

Design Studio Online (DSO) allows designers and commercial customers instant access to the new carpet collections. The Design Discoveries carpet range will be available for commercial clients from November 2024.

Jodie Hatton, Design Manager at Brintons, comments on the new collection: “We are so excited to be able to bring to life Séguy’s albums. When searching the V&A archives for this project I could instantly imagine the patterns from these albums making beautiful carpets. The abstracted large-scale beetles and butterflies create these wonderful modern shapes which we have textured to make them more suited to high traffic areas.

“We worked on a truly global scale for this collection with designs created by our talented in-house design team including all regions; USA, Australia Pacific and Europe. The colour palette was chosen from the colours which our designers were spontaneously drawn to for the patterns and revised to be slightly more harmonious.”
