What Bedaffair does
Bedaffair is a Dutch specialty retailer and manufacturer of handcrafted natural beds, mattresses, boxsprings, and bedroom textiles, founded in 1994 by Arend and Marjolein Vaders and operated as a trade name of Skoon BV. The company is headquartered in Heemstede, Netherlands, where it runs an 800 m2 showroom with an integrated workshop/atelier and an e-commerce storefront; Belgium orders are accepted via shipping-quote request. Products are made from 100% natural materials — natural latex, pocket spring systems, biological sheep wool, hemp, horsehair, camel wool, and biological cotton — with no synthetic foams or harmful chemicals, and are customized, repairable, and built to last 15-40 years depending on construction.
The product portfolio spans the Bedaffair own-label collections (including the Bedaffair Gaia natural latex mattress, Bedaffair Eterna upholstered bed, Bedaffair Mika solid beech bed, and a bio-circulator mattress line) plus resold partner brands (Team 7, Holzmanufaktur, Dormiente, Prolana, Moosburger, Essenza Home, Christian Fischbacher, Damai Organics). Pricing is one-time purchase with premium positioning: mattresses from €189 to €3,000+, beds from €1,125 to over €6,000 for premium branded designs, with optional €250 installation and SprayPay installment plans for €250-€3,500 orders. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via the showroom and the online shop, with PostNL handling last-mile delivery and free delivery in the Netherlands above €75.
The customer base is individual B2C consumers organized around three persona segments — conscious/health-conscious consumers (primary), families with children, and sustainable living enthusiasts. The company holds a stack of independent certifications including B Corp (certified July 2022, re-certified 2024/2025 with a score of 103 points), CBW-erkend, FSC, PEFC, GOTS, Nomite, and Global Recycled Standard. Marketing is content-led through an 87+ article blog, an email newsletter, and organic social channels, with the showroom experience driving bottom-of-funnel conversion. The company self-identifies as a micro-company under its B Corp documentation, with founders Arend and Marjolein Vaders maintaining active ownership and operational involvement.

Bedaffair competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Coco-Mat: Greek natural sleep brand (mattresses, beds, bedding) made from renewable materials like coconut fiber, natural rubber, wool and cotton. Comparable to Bedaffair in natural-materials positioning, vertical manufacturing, multi-country showroom model and sustainability-first brand narrative.
- Dormiente: German natural bed and mattress specialist combining ergonomic design with organic materials (solid wood, natural latex, organic cotton). Bedaffair already carries Dormiente as a partner brand, making them a directly comparable specialist with overlapping assortment and similar sustainability certifications.
- Savoir Beds: London-based luxury bed maker using natural fillings (wool, cotton, horsehair, silk) and hand-built techniques. Comparable in premium pricing, natural-materials narrative, made-to-order production model and bespoke customer experience.
- Prolana: German manufacturer of natural mattresses, bedding and sleep products (wool, latex, cotton). Carried by Bedaffair as a partner; comparable in product portfolio, materials (GOTS-certified organic) and DACH-market natural-sleep positioning.
- Holzmanufaktur: German solid-wood bed maker using traditional finger-joint joinery and FSC/PEFC-certified wood. Bedaffair partner brand and directly comparable in solid wood bed construction, minimalist aesthetic and sustainability positioning.
- Hästens: Swedish heritage maker of premium handcrafted beds and mattresses using natural materials (wool, cotton, horsehair, flax). Directly comparable to Bedaffair in natural-materials positioning, premium pricing, made-to-order craftsmanship and multi-generational durability claims.
Emerging players
- Avocado Mattress: US-based D2C organic mattress and bedding brand using GOTS-certified wool, cotton and natural latex. Comparable in natural-materials story and B Corp-aligned positioning, though serving a different geography and a more mass-market premium D2C audience.
- Naturepedic: US organic mattress and bedding manufacturer focused on certified organic materials and non-toxic certifications. Comparable in organic/natural-materials positioning and family-/children-focused product line, though US-focused.
Broad incumbents
- Emma Mattress: European D2C mattress brand (Frankfurt-based) at much larger scale. Adjacent competitor whose newer 'natural' lines (latex, foam alternatives) compete for the same Dutch/Belgian consumer wallet and pressure Bedaffair's premium positioning.
Regional players
- Magnussen Bedrijf (Magnussen Home): German premium natural bed specialist with showrooms in Germany. Comparable in natural-materials positioning and premium handcrafted production, though it primarily serves Germany rather than the Netherlands/Belgium.
