For a true, restful sleep

The only mattress brand recognised by NASA and certified by the Space Foundation²

At the heart of each mattress and pillow we create is our iconic TEMPUR® Material, born from NASA technology. In the late 1960s, NASA scientists invented an entirely new material that was then used aboard space shuttles. Our founders realized the material’s unique potential. So they took that original NASA invention and spent years perfecting it into TEMPUR® Material and created the world’s first viscoelastic mattress and pillow.

First proving its value in the healthcare sector, TEMPUR® is now found in bedrooms around the world, transforming the sleep of millions. That's why we're the only mattress brand which was recognized by NASA for improving the quality of life¹. This honour sets us apart, keeps us humble and inspires us to continually innovate, for sleep that’s out of this world - and it all started with those original NASA scientists

Like nothing else on Earth

Nothing else is like TEMPUR^® Material. Our scientists have continued to refine and perfect TEMPUR^® Material for sleep for over 30 years. Our formula has always remained secret - fewer than 10 people in the world know how to make it, and they all work for us. Since we created the first viscoelastic mattress and pillow in 1991, TEMPUR^® Material has been at the heart of all our products. Being viscoelastic means TEMPUR Material is both fluid and spring-like - achieved by billions of ultra-sensitive open cells existing between a solid and a liquid state. That’s the secret.

The moment you lie down feels like pure magic as the cells instantly respond to your body’s shape, weight and warmth, precisely adapting and aligning to every inch of you. Its proven pressure relief gives your body total comfort and support, helping you to drift off faster and helps to reduce your tossing and turning. It absorbs motion from your partner so you are less likely to disturb one another. How TEMPUR^® Material works is complex, but what it does is simple: helps you get a true, restful sleep.
