The innovations continued with the first Sertapedic® mattress in the 1950s; the Plusher Pillow Soft® mattress in the 1970s; a continuous coil innerspring in the 1980s; and the most advanced gel memory foam technology with the breakthrough iComfort® Sleep System in 2011. This was one of the most successful launches in the industry.

It’s these innovations and more that help Serta gain a loyal Canadian following, not just among families, but to major Canadian and international hotel groups.

Serta was founded in 1931 when independent mattress manufacturers joined forces to take sleep innovations even further. Launching with the “Perfect Sleeper” Serta made waves with the first “tuftless” mattress and “ribbon steel” coils. This innovative new mattress had “narry a button, bump, or hollow to disturb your deep restful sleep”
