In the bedding sector, questions about recycling and reusing materials often arise around practicality and impact. Today, about nine out of ten mattresses removed from homes still end up in landfills, despite clear opportunities for reuse. The main hurdle lies in how materials are blended and layered inside products, which makes separation challenging. Dormitienda, a veteran player with more than 25 years in the business, has built a sustainability‑driven model that informs every decision. Two core objectives anchor this approach: a responsible product recall that aims for zero residue and offering customers an ecological, comfortable rest option that aligns with modern environmental values.

For more than two decades, leadership under Mónica Duart has steered the company through ongoing adoption of advanced techniques. This progress comes from a genuine commitment to internalizing production capabilities and investing in research, development, and innovation. A notable achievement is the transformation of polluting plastics into 100% recycled textiles. The process sterilizes, stretches, and melts the plastic to produce high‑strength fibers that can be woven into durable fabrics. Dormitienda’s pledge to innovation and sustainability is not abstract; it is measurable. The Eco‑Friendly product line has already recycled more than 80,000 plastic bottles, turning waste into materials that support greener manufacturing and product longevity.

The second pillar of sustainable rest is comprehensive waste management. The company began by recycling the steel springs used in its rest systems, fostering a deep culture of zero waste. Milestones accumulate as the goal expands to ensure that 100% of deposits yield no waste at all. In other words, the entire material set of the remaining systems can reenter the production cycle as recycled cores, achieving significant reductions in emissions by about 60% and dramatically lowering water use by 99%. These gains demonstrate how thoughtful design and responsible dismantling can make a meaningful environmental difference. Source: Dormitienda sustainability report.
In this way, the Valencian company positions reuse as its primary strategy for addressing climate challenges. This commitment is evident both during the development phase and in the end‑of‑life collection of rest systems. In response, Dormitienda continues to advance critical actions such as sustainable mobility and decarbonization of logistics: its facilities now operate with electrical machinery that aims to reduce emissions by around 90%, underscoring a broader shift toward cleaner operations across the business network.

National Sustainability Convention
Dormitienda maintains ongoing improvement programs and continually refreshes its sustainability ethos among teams. The company will bring together more than 100 employees from 90 stores across Spain at a national congress in Valencia on December 3. At this gathering, strategic lines for the coming year will be outlined, with a strong emphasis on environmental awareness that touches every department. The goal is to embed a sustainable structure throughout every stage of production and sales, ensuring that ecological thinking informs decisions from the factory floor to the showroom floor.
