Pillows etc, page-25

Yes, I wasn’t a shareholder at the time, but I believe that Tempur Sealy was mentioned on this forum after the November 2014 AGM. That was quite some time ago and was in the context of FR treatment.

It was last year’s introduction of Alexicool (described then as a fire retardant phase change material) which certainly seemed to ramp up interest within the US bedding sector.
It was only last May that several bedding companies were said to be evaluating and testing Alexium's fire retardant, anti-microbial and cool to the touch combination formulation. By September, Alexium had confirmed that it had already partnered with the majority of US based bedding manufacturers.

Interestingly, the only bedding name confirmed by the company to date is Pegasus Home Fashions. Pegasus specialises in manufacturing pillows and mattress pads but it doesn’t make mattresses. No one here had heard of them, yet they were said to manufacture 75% of pillows sold in the US. My suspicion is that ISO-PEDIC, EZ Dreams and Bamboo Essence are just a few of the pillow brands manufactured by Pegasus. Pegasus may well also manufacture pillows for both Tempur Sealy AND Serta Simmons. In a similar fashion, Alexium may be supplying the mattress ticking companies which supply both Tempur Sealy and Serta Simmons – there is evidence that points to Alexium’s possible link with both of these major bedding companies.

But I don’t think this will be confirmed by Alexium. I’ve seen enough from my research so far to tell that these companies like to keep their supply chains opaque.
