Cramlington mattress manufacturer doubles turnover in a year

Cramlington-based mattress manufacturers Mammoth Technologies have doubled their business in the last year, reaching an equivalent annual turnover of £2 million.

Spearheaded by thirty-somthing entrepreneurs John Tuton and Mike Nash, Mammoth is still only two years old.

Since the beginning of 2013 the company has grown 135% on independent accounts and is on target to reach a £5 million turnover in the next five years.

The firm supply to major retailers including Selfridges, AHF and Furniture Village, as well as a number of leading independent retailers.

Mammoth Technologies founder and managing director, John Tuton, said: “We’re passionate about enhancing sleep no matter what age or lifestyle. Our products are clinically proven to have pain relieving benefits and provide superior control of temperature.”

John collaborated with Mike Nash from The Foam Company to take Mammoth’s original mattress for athletes and people suffering from injuries to the wider consumer.

He added: “Originally our mattresses were designed for athletes but we have taken it to the next level to help people who are suffering from injuries, chronic illnesses, need pressure relief or generally looking to get a better night’s sleep.

“Our mattresses are the only products of their kind and there’s clearly a demand for them – we’re delighted with the company’s growth so far and are excited to see it develop further in the years to come.”

Mammoth Technologies uses enhanced medical grade foam in its products and as John has a medical background in the care of chronically ill patients, he was determined to present his products as scientifically sound and drew on clinical research into the raw materials conducted by the Department of Health.

Due to stringent testing, Mammoth mattresses are Class 1 registered medical devices with the Medicines and Healthcare Regulatory Authority (MHRA).
