Your back is for life
Beds for Backs is Australia’s trusted place for back-saving beds. For more than 30 years we’ve been supporting everyday people like you with our pioneering range of ergonomic and adjustable beds. Scientifically backed and NDIS-approved, our range of products will support your body in its optimum posture so that you can rest easy and get a great night’s sleep.
The Science of Sleep
Beds for Backs is Australia’s first ergonomic bed manufacturer, founded by structural engineer Mario Piraino.
Our Ergolife mattresses and adjustable bed bases are designed to support the natural curves of your spine, with adjustable zones for your shoulders, lumbar and hips.Developed in collaboration with experts from the University of Melbourne, Macquarie University, RMIT and the Australian Spinal Research Foundation, our sleep systems are independently tested to help reduce pressure points, improve alignment and support people living with back pain, arthritis and mobility issues.
Structural Engineering
Applying load-bearing principles to body weight distribution, ensuring no sagging or pressure build-up.
Pressure Mapping
Our beds are tested to reduce pressure on hips and shoulders by up to 40% compared to standard mattresses.
Thermal Regulation
Utilizing natural latex and breathable materials to maintain the optimal body temperature for sleep .
Dynamic Adjustment
Bases that move with you, providing specific support for reading, recovery, and various medical conditions.
Shape the way you sleep
Most beds out there have a static core layer and a choice of a firm, medium or soft layer on the top - like that makes all the difference. But whichever you choose, that top layer can’t change the rigid support that is the same throughout the mattress core.
It’s the core that is the problem for your back, not the firm, medium or soft layer on the top.
It’s only by changing the core through ergonomic design that your natural posture can be supported, not distorted. The result: better alignment, better support and better sleep.
True support for your body
Using ergonomic design, we have engineered our mattresses and bases to account for your body no matter how its shape and weight varies from your shoulders to your hips.
Our innovative designs start with that core layer, varying the materials we use within it so that your natural posture is supported, without compromising one area for another.
You could say ergonomic design is at the core of what we do - no matter which mattress or base you choose from our range, we will provide you with advice for achieving true support for your body.
And that means you get the comfort and sleep that you deserve.
An Australian family business
Beds for Backs is a two-generation family business with more than 30 years of history.
Our founder, Mario Piraino, was a structural engineer who believed he could apply the principles of engineering and ergonomics to beds to deliver more support and a better night’s sleep.
We’re proud to have pioneered ergonomic beds in Australia, and today our beds are still designed and manufactured in our Melbourne factory.
Knowing your bed is made locally, by people who can answer your questions? That’s true comfort.
