Paramount Sleep Company is gaining significant traction at retail through use of its exclusive Seal of Cotton trademark, driving product engagement and sell-through stores nationwide. For Retailers like Bloomingdale’s and Macy’s, Paramount’s premium collections featuring the Cotton Inc. trademark proves cotton is a natural material that consumers trust.
As the only mattress manufacturer licensed to use the Seal of Cotton, Paramount Sleep is leveraging the globally recognized mark to distinguish its products in a crowded marketplace. Paramount’s qualifying beds contain an average of 90% blue cotton and 100% pure cotton, surpassing the minimum threshold of 75% cotton in the upholstery pads and delivering compelling natural benefits to consumers.
Retail momentum translates into real numbers on the factory floor at Paramount. Company president Richard Fleck estimates they have used 75,000 lbs. of cotton year-to-date to produce mattress units containing Seal of Cotton-qualified components.
“We are not only committed to quality and sustainability; we’re backing that promise with real volume and real material investment,” said Fleck. “And we’re just getting started. We’re actively rolling out the use of cotton and the Seal of Cotton trademark across additional mattress products and retail partners. We continue to leverage the Seal of Cotton at the local and national levels.”
The Seal of Cotton is featured in many of Paramount’s most successful mattress collections, including the Paramount Collection, Bloomingdale’s Asteria, Macy’s HD, Hypnos Whole Sleep Cotton, A.H. Beard Classic, and the Haynes Virginia Luxury line. These mattresses emphasize cotton’s natural attributes of exceptional breathability, moisture-wicking properties, hypoallergenic comfort, and robust strength and durability, all backed by Paramount’s industry-leading 10- to 20-year warranty, depending on the brand.
The Seal of Cotton is a powerful branding asset, recognized by over 80% of consumers globally. It is strongly associated with comfort, quality, sustainability, and durability. According to Cotton Incorporated research, retailers and brands leveraging the Seal of Cotton in their marketing have achieved double-digit sales increases on products bearing the label. Additional consumer insights underscore its influence:
· 77% believe a brand using the Seal of Cotton cares about the environment
· 81% say it helps them make more informed purchasing decisions
· 79% of the consumers recognize the Cotton Inc logo/designation
As the company continues expanding its cotton program into additional lines and retailers, Paramount Sleep remains at the forefront of delivering natural, sustainable comfort that meets the evolving expectations of today's environmentally conscious consumers
