For immediate Release NEWS RELEASE FOUR STAR LAUNCHES WORLD’S FIRST FEATHERED POCKETED SPRING MATTRESS Singapore, 5 September 2008 – Four Star Industries Pte Ltd (Four Star) today launched a new series of pocketed spring mattresses, On Cloud Nine that comes with a special feather layer containing 90 per cent feathers and 10 per cent down. A breakthrough innovation, these mattresses are the first in the world to combine feathers with pocket springs, a material that is more commonly found in pillows and comforters. Four Star, a member of the local furniture industry brand, Singapore Mozaic, has been committed in their research in sleep sciences and development. The unique On Cloud Nine feathered pocketed spring mattresses mark another step forward in Four Star’s efforts to move the company in a new business direction. Four Star has been actively expanding their product range to cater to younger audiences who seek comfort, quality and design expertise when purchasing mattresses. Mr Neo Sia Meng, Executive Director, Four Star Industries Pte Ltd said, “As each feather in the mattress reacts independently, curling under pressure and naturally returning to its original state when the weight is lifted, the feather layer is able to closely hug and support the contours of the body’s natural curvature. Coupled with Four Star’s renowned Naturalign™ pocketed spring system, the mattress is able to offer a high level of comfort and softness while delivering superb natural body alignment. Feather, which can dissipate heat naturally, is also well-suited for countries with humid tropical climates like Singapore. Through the introduction of On Cloud Nine, we wish to provide our consumers with yet another innovative option which will help them achieve an entire night of quality, sleep.” Hafiz Koh, Singapore’s youngest race car driver and Four Star ambassador is full of praises for the new mattress, “As a professional race car driver, a good night’s sleep is essential for me to deliver my best performance. With my Four Star mattress, I‘m able to enjoy good night sleep every night that allows me to be 101 per cent alert for my vigorous training the next day. The On Cloud Nine mattress has provided me an unsurpassed level of rest experience, my lifestyle and sports career has given a leading edge by its comfort and serenity.” The new On Cloud Nine collection’s prices range from S$3268 to S$8660.
