Black Sheep Mattress Co. began with a belief that there was a more sustainable and beneficial way to make and sell mattresses. Developed from a growing awareness of the negative health and environmental impacts of conventional mattress manufacturing, the company has delivered an artisanal approach to the industry for over 10 years. Over this time, Black Sheep Mattress Co. has grown in their knowledge of quality, sustainability and craftsmanship, continuously expanding their products and services to better meet their customers’ sleep needs.

On this episode, we are joined by their Founder, Christian Schmidt. Together with host Lauren Scott, we explore how Black Sheep Mattress Co. is disrupting the standard mattress industry with non-toxic, natural, and organic products. We discuss how they work with local suppliers on key sustainability considerations, their innovative mattress recycling program, tips on how you can extend the life of your mattress, and some of their incredible upcycling work. As a bonus, Christian even shares some advice for our entrepreneur listeners thinking about expanding geographically. 

After this episode with Christian, we promise that you will be wide awake when it comes to sustainable mattresses!
