Sleep Secrets recalls Memory Foam Mattresses

A range of mattresses imported by Ventura from a Chinese supplier will later today be identified by the BBC as falling below UK Fire Standards.

The mattresses concerned have UK approved fire safety test certificates issued by approved testing facilities in Hong Kong and China. Ventura would never knowingly import mattresses that did not carry an appropriate safety test certificate.

However it is becoming apparent that not all mattresses supplied to Ventura actually met the specifications in the standard.  At this stage it appears that either the test certificates were wrongly issued or that a number of mattresses were manufactured using materials not compliant with the test certificate.

In the meantime, we are recalling mattresses possibly affected and have withdrawn from sale all those from the relevant manufacturer.  We are also reviewing both our own testing procedures and the safety certificates of all the mattresses within our stock (regardless of supplier) with the UK Trading Standards Authority.

In addition, we have also sent representatives to China to meet with both our supplier and with the local testing facilities to fully investigate the situation.  In this investigation we will be working alongside and co-operating fully with appropriate Chinese authorities and local British trade representatives.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and can assure that the safety and security of our products and of consumers is fundamental to our business and philosophy and we will do everything we can to understand how this situation occurred and to take appropriate action.
