For more than 185 years, Harrison Spinks has been at the forefront of luxury bedmaking, combining traditional craftsmanship with innovation. As a proud British manufacturer, every mattress is handcrafted using natural, responsibly sourced materials, and is made glue-free, foam-free and free from FR chemical treatments.
From homegrown hemp and flax to unique glue-free pocket spring systems, over 95% (by weight) of the components in a Harrison Spinks mattress are manufactured in-house, providing exceptional comfort while ensuring full control over the whole manufacturing process.
As the first bedmaker to partner with British Wool on its Traceable Wool Scheme, Harrison Spinks sources the finest wool from British farms, supporting farmers with a premium price, and raises its own sheep on its 300-acre farm in Yorkshire.
The company is the only British bedmaker to grow its own mattress fillings, cultivating hemp and flax on the farm. One of the UK’s largest growers of hemp, the supercrop is not only strong and durable but also naturally temperature-regulating, while flax is a more responsible alternative to cotton, thriving in the British climate and requiring only rainfall to grow. The company also collaborates with a cooperative of local farms to grow additional hemp for its mattress production.
By maintaining complete control over every component, the bedmaker delivers a four-week lead time without compromising on quality, responsible production and unrivalled attention to detail.
Wool is inherently fire-resistant, and by weaving its own wool-rich ticking fabric in-house – it is the only British bedmaker to do so – Harrison Spinks eliminates the need for fire-retardant chemical treatments. The company has proudly brought the tradition of weaving back to Yorkshire, combining traditional methods with state-of-the-art weaving looms to create a breathable and FR chemical-treatment-free sleep surface.
All Harrison Spinks springs are designed and manufactured in-house at the company’s Leeds facility, made without glue to be 100% recyclable and allowing for independent movement of each spring to contour to the body for cloud-like comfort. Ultra-fine wire is produced to precise specifications on Harrison Spinks’ dedicated wire-drawing line in Scunthorpe. The springs provide targeted lumbar support, adapting to the body’s movements and delivering targeted relief of pressure points.
The company has been honoured with eight King’s and Queen’s Awards for Enterprise – currently holding three for Innovation, International Trade and Sustainable Development – recognising its contribution to the furniture industry. Harrison Spinks is a champion of responsible British manufacturing, crafting beds that offer unparalleled comfort while protecting the planet.
