SVA N E ® SLE E P C O M FO RT

The science of sound sleep SINCE 1937

The importance of good quality applies to sleep itself as well as to the choice of bed.

What started out as a small company producing pocket springs in the Norwegian region of Sunnmøre, has evolved into one of Norway’s leading brands with a great international reputation. Quality is as important to Ekornes Beds now as it was when Jens E. Ekornes established the company in 1937, and we strive to provide the best quality at affordable prices. Svane® mattresses and beds from Ekornes Beds offer the best possible conditions for an optimal level of sleep comfort!

Ventilation

Pressure relief

If you have ever woken up in a bed feeling unpleasantly clammy and hot, you are not alone. The problem is that the dampness and heat produced by the body is not transported away, but remains exactly where you are lying.

That is why a mattress’s ventilating properties are extremely important for a good night’s sleep.

If you have ever been camping, you will know how aching and stiff you feel after a night spent sleeping with just a thin camping pad between you and the ground.

What you need is a mattress that dissipates any moisture, and ensures a comfortable temperature all night long.

you slept.

That is because your body’s most vulnerable spots – hips, shoulders and back – have not received sufficient pressure relief while

Body support No matter what kind of mattress you lie on, you will never stay entirely still while you sleep. Your body needs to move about. Just imagine how uncomfortable it is if you have to stand in the same position for any length of time when you are awake.

A good mattress allows you to move about effortlessly, and provides optimal support regardless of the position you are lying in.

It’s the inside that counts ™

T H E B E N E F I T S O F A SVA N E ® P R O D UCT

How well you sleep depends on what is inside your mattress. This is why we are constantly looking for special and innovative solutions that ensure a good and healthy sleep. Product testing is always of paramount importance in the work we do.

The Svane® brand is associated with the highest quality. We want it to stay that way, which is why we believe that it is important to design and manufacture the beds ourselves. This is to ensure that we have the necessary expertise when it comes to sleep comfort and an excellent foundation for future innovations.

Read more about the various technologies we use on the following pages.

IntelliGel® is an innovative material that adapts to your body regardless of your physique and body weight.

All beds with IntelliGel® are marked with this symbol in the catalogue.

Sleep better, live better Every person is different. People lead individual lives and look different from each other. But everyone needs energy. Not just to live, but to live well.

Sleep is a basic necessity and a source of energy that is more important than you might think.

You will spend approximately 200,000 hours* of your life in bed.

But a good sleep is not just just measured in the number of hours you sleep. What matters is the quality of sleep you get during these hours.

Sleep comfort is therefore very important. With a Svane® bed, you will always have a high level of sleep comfort. No matter how you live or how you look.

It’s the inside that counts™

* When we say that we spend more than 200,000 hours asleep in the course of a lifetime, we are basing this on an average of 7.5 hours of sleep per night, and an average life expectancy in Norway of 80 years.

BECAUSE THE BODY FEELS W H AT T H E E Y E C A N N O T S E E

I N T E LLI GE L ®

IntelliGel® is a groundbreaking material which ensures that the position you lie in is always ergonomically correct, regardless of your physique and weight.

What sets a mattress with IntelliGel® apart from a traditional mattress is the unique pressure relief you get when you lie down. The material allows the most exposed parts of your body (your shoulders and hips) to sink deeper into the mattress, while giving the rest of the body optimal support.

When you change your sleeping position the material will immediately adapt accordingly. That is why a mattress with IntelliGel® always feels incredibly comfortable. The material also has excellent ventilation, which makes the bed feel even more comfortable.

When you sleep on IntelliGel®, you will instantly feel the difference.

Watch this short video about IntelliGel® Sometimes it can be difficult to describe in words the many qualities this material offers. We have made a short video about IntelliGel® which highlights the material’s unique features.

You can find the video at www.svanebeds.com

A unique combination IntelliGel® + DuoSystem® Many of our beds offer you the unique combination of IntelliGel® and DuoSystem®. We believe this combination makes our beds the best on the market.

IntelliGel® offers unique pressure relief, support and ventilation, while DuoSystem® allows you to change the firmness of your mattress to your liking.

Look for the DuoSystem® and IntelliGel®symbols.

PluraSone® – for optimal support PluraSone® is made of pocket springs divided into three zones, offering different levels of firmness and providing optimal support for your body.

PluraSone® therefore provides an additional layer of support under the layer of IntelliGel®, further enhancing sleep comfort.

SmartZone™

SM A RT Z O N E ™

Great new product FOR THE NECK AND SHOULDERS SmartZone™ is our latest and smartest spring system. It has been developed to provide optimal comfort for the parts of the body most subjected to heavy stress day to day. Many will agree that the neck and shoulders have to endure tough challenges during the day. Did you know that neck and shoulder pain is one of the most common reasons for poor sleep?

SmartZone™ has a smaller spring inside a large spring and these are placed strategically across the mattress. SmartZone™ springs’ unique construction provide ideal support for the hips and waist. The neck and shoulders sink deeper into the mattress and get perfect relief all night. It’s the inside that counts™.

PRACTICAL, SAFE AND FLEXIBLE We have designed a special and sturdy mounting for the headboard of beds in the SvaneÂŽcollection. This gives you complete freedom to place your bed wherever you want in your room. The headboard has a simple design, is easy to attach and is as firm as the back of a sofa.

If there are sockets in the wall behind your bed, this is a very practical solution, because plugged-in sockets are a major fire hazard.

If your bed is normally placed against an external wall, you can prevent moisture from forming behind the bed and the headboard by simply moving the bed further into the room.

The SvaneÂŽ Opera ottoman can be placed in front of or behind your bed.

The bedside table can be used on both sides of the bed.

Freestanding ARRANGE YOUR FURNITURE HOWEVER YOU PLEASE Sometimes you can’t avoid having to arrange the bed in an unconventional way in your bedroom – but sometimes it just looks beautiful in a new position. Perhaps an electric socket, a sloping ceiling or a window will make you want to move the bed a little further into the room. Or perhaps the bed just looks better like that?

Our headboards have a special attachment that allows them to hang elegantly on the bed and are also strong enough to serve as a backrest for two people. The bedside tables and the ottoman from the same collection can also be freestanding and can be used on both sides of the bed.

A new start Everyday life demands a lot from us. And that will not change. You know what is heading your way. Dreams remain dreams, and you keep thinking of all the things you wanted to get done a long time ago.

We can’t give you more time, but we can give you more energy to do all the things you have to do on a day-to-day basis. Why? Because those who sleep well have enough energy for the day ahead. You don’t then have to spend time thinking about all the things you haven’t yet done, but you can simply get on with it.

You are then well on your way, and you can turn your dreams into reality.

Svane mattress toppers ÂŽ

SVA N E ÂŽ M AT T R E SS TO P P E R S

A lot of people underestimate the importance of a good mattress topper. It not only does the job of protecting the mattress, but more importantly it increases sleep comfort by wicking moisture and heat away from your skin. This means that not only will you fall asleep more quickly, but you will also enjoy the wonderful feeling of fresh bed linen. Combined with the right mattress, this means perfect sleep comfort.

Easy to clean

Unique comfort

The two-piece cover for all our mattress toppers can be washed separately in the washing machine at 60 degrees.

Some things require careful planning – like choosing where to live or where to take the family on holiday next year. Other things are decided on the spur of the moment – meeting a friend for coffee, or going to the cinema. Some things ought to be planned more carefully than perhaps they generally are. Choosing a mattress, for example. Because you spend more time in bed than anywhere else.

Remember, you will be spending a third of your life in bed, and the choice of mattress could affect your health.

A good bed that provides the right support and pressure relief can reduce the risk of back problems.

In addition to support and pressure relief, good ventilation is one of the most important qualities you should look for in a mattress.

Great freedom of choice There are many different types of people, which is why we offer many different types of beds. We have beds for bookworms, heavy sleepers, people who watch TV, early risers, and even the princess on the pea.

shoulder to sink further down into the mattress when you lie on your side. The springs at hip level are somewhat firmer giving your hips the same level of support, but not allowing them to sink so deeply into the mattress. The springs under your waist and thighs are firmer still. This is why PluraSone® offers good support and ergonomics.

DuoSystem® Some prefer to sleep in a firmer bed, while others prefer something softer. That is why most of our beds come with the DuoSystem®. This gives you the freedom to choose the level of firmness that best suits when you come home.

While IntelliGel® ensures that you lie in an ergonomically correct position, DuoSystem® makes it possible for you to choose the optimal comfort for you.

Cirrus® Fiber in combination with LatexGel help speed up this process, reducing the time it takes to fall asleep.

Your body’s excess heat is stored in the material’s tiny gel granules. When you get up in the morning, the heat is still stored in the material. Moisture and heat is “pressed” out of the bed, and the result is a cool, dry and fresh bed in record time.

Elastec® The Elastec® core is a synthetic material which we produce ourselves and which we use in our mattresses and mattress toppers. The material has unique elasticity, ensures rapid ventilation and is allergy-friendly.

LatexGel The combination of a LatexGel core and Cirrus® fibres offers a feeling of soft and supple comfort and helps to bring down your body temperature so that you can fall asleep faster.

Tempstretch The Tempstretch fabric cover, which we use for our Svane® Temptation mattress toppers also helps you to fall asleep quickly and easily.

Tempstretch is made from CoolPlus, a yarn that is also used for sportswear with dry-fit properties. It regulates your body temperature effectively if needed.

The combination of this unique fabric and the filling material made of Cirrus® fibres helps to wick moisture away from the surface of your bed.
