Dunlopillo History
Dunlopillo latex was invented in January 1929 by a Dunlop scientist, Mr EA Murphy, one of a group of research scientists working for Dunlop at Fort Dunlop in Birmingham.
Registered in 1926 Dunlopillo was the first foam ever manufactured. The company's first mattress went on sale in the UK in 1931 and during the second world war Dunlopillo mattresses were only available with a medical certificate from a GP.
After the war the sale of Dunlopillo latex foam mattresses and pillows increased significantly. In 2002 Hilding Anders acquired the Dunlopillo brand in the UK and Ireland making it part of Europe’s leading bedding group, Hilding Anders which is the leading manufacturer of beds and mattresses in Europe, Russia and Asia.
Dunlopillo latex pillows maintain their shape at all times and with a choice of deep or slim, you are sure to find the one that suits your sleeping position. With all the same benefits of a latex mattress, Dunlopillo Pillows provide instant pressure relief, hypo-allergenic qualities, an aerated interior to remain fresh and dry, and come with a very generous five-year guarantee.
The Dunlopillo range includes its extensive selection of latex pillows, mattress and bed collection which is now available to buy at Dalzell's of Markethill.
