Description
If you like the comfortable support of an extra firm mattress, this 5500 Orthopaedic mattress from the M&S X Harrison Spinks collection will make a luxurious choice. The core is made with the award-winning Cortec™ Quad glue-free pocket-sprung system, with every spring housed in its own chamber to aid spinal alignment and alleviate pressure on your body. This construction also helps to prevent motion transfer, so you and your partner don't disturb each other with your movements as you rest. Over the top, you'll find a pillowy layer combining Microlution HD springs and natural fillings including British wool, hemp and flax. These components are naturally antibacterial and have been scientifically proven to reduce dust mite allergens, helping you sleep soundly. The wool, hemp and flax is grown locally at the Harrison Spinks farm and each mattress is handmade in Yorkshire by skilled artisans, combining traditional techniques passed down through the generations, plus state-of-the-art innovations developed in-house.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
