Sensitive Choice
A healthy sleep environment is crucial for a restful sleep. A.H. Beard mattresses are the only ones approved by the National Asthma Council of Australia and Respiratory Foundation of New Zealand to carry the Sensitive Choice blue butterfly symbol. That’s because they provide long-term protection against dust mites and their allergens, mould and bacteria, so you can breathe and sleep easy.
Trusted by athletes at the Australian Institute of Sport to deliver a winning edge, our mattresses provide exceptional comfort and support.
As the official mattress partner of the Australian Institute of Sport, we’re helping our elite athletes perform at their peak – on the track, in the pool and in life.
A.H. Beard is a proud partner of Soft Landing mattress recycling. Soft Landing is a social enterprise currently operating in NSW (Sydney and the Illawarra), VIC (Melbourne), ACT (Hume and surrounds) and WA (Wangara and surrounds).

Through deconstructing and recycling mattresses they offer entry level training and employment to people who experience significant barriers to work, including Indigenous Australians, the long term unemployed, people experiencing mental health issues and those leaving the prison system (or with a criminal record).
