A trip down the memory lane

From its humble beginnings as a local mattress refurbisher in the 1970s, Foam Home has evolved into a global powerhouse of sleep solutions. The brand’s enduring commitment to detail, quality, and customer service has earned it recognition far beyond India’s borders. Over the years, Foam Home has harnessed its expertise to develop a range of innovative mattresses that offer unparalleled comfort and support. In 2017, the brand pioneered the Ergoshell mattress technology, a revolutionary approach to crafting mattresses that offer individualised comfort and orthopaedic support. Today, Foam Home continues to blend functional design and technological innovation to redefine the sleep experience.

“At Foam Home, we hold strong values on creating an unforgettable experience. Being in the mattress industry, this is especially important for us as every single person has a unique preference when it comes to having a great and comfortable sleep. While we did have our store design focused on catering to this experience, we thought it was time to reinvent how customers were interacting with the space and our products. We wanted to add drama to the customer journey, and change the pace and key focal points, and who better than the experts at Lewis & Hickey to carry that out for us. Since we’ve been a legacy brand, the design work had to strike a perfect balance between being familiar yet upgraded”, shares Ms. Sabina Bhanpurawala – CEO & Marketing Director of Foam Home, India.

Ergoshell mattress technology

At the heart of Foam Home’s revolutionary product lineup lies the Ergoshell mattress technology. Unlike traditional sandwich constructions, Ergoshell’s innovative design provides differentiated support throughout the body. This patented technology, backed by over 14 global patents, is meticulously crafted at Foam Home’s state-of-the-art facility in Taloja, Mumbai. The Ergoshell construction comprises three layers: the Mattress Shell, which divides the mattress into 42 zones for personalised support; Support blocks that cater to individual body sections; and the Comfort layer that ensures plushness and alignment. Ergoshell’s precision-driven approach ensures that every mattress is a masterpiece of comfort, addressing the varied needs of sleepers.
