The Handmade Mattress company ceases to trade with items up for sale

Milnsbridge, Huddersfield-based The Handmade Mattress Company has closed its doors after eight successful years of trading as a specialist infant mattress manufacturer.

Walker Singleton associate director, Luke Hartshorn, commented: “The wide selection of equipment and stock available will appeal to a range of buyers, from furniture manufacturers through to wholesaler, traders and retailers.
