No definition agreed on, but work will proceed
David Perry -- Furniture Today, May 11, 2009
BONITA SPRINGS, Fla. — A green initiative launched by the Specialty Sleep Assn. attracted several of bedding's largest producers here, but failed to reach any agreements on how to define green products.Representatives of Sealy, Simmons, Serta and Tempur-Pedic, bedding's four largest producers, attended the session, as did a number of other mattress producers, suppliers and association executives.
The group heard presentations from companies offering a variety of green products, and engaged in wide-ranging discussions about how to advance their agenda. A committee of attendees was named to further pursue the issues raised at the meeting.
