The difference between quality futon and cheap futon lies in the raw materials,
the material composition and the processing.
Our futons have been functionally developed, optimized and tested over many years.
All-natural raw materials, natural latex and high-quality processing are clearly visible. Futon DX 5 from Futonwerk.

Our materials have a constant quality in terms of strength, density, shape, size and weight, so that a futon from the futon factory does exactly what we promise you (/ - approx. 3% natural fluctuation).
High processing
Constant quality
When materials are processed roughly, which is sometimes unavoidable with cheap materials, larger variations in strength, shape, size and weight are common in the products.
Inferior workmanship
Fluctuations in quality
4. Production
All of our futons are made in Germany, by experienced employees and mostly by hand. In our 35-year history we have continuously developed and optimized our futons.
Manufacturing in Germany for over 30 years
Regular pollutant controls
The production facilities in Poland basically have a different approach, namely to make inexpensive goods. However, the resulting products have no resemblance to our quality.
