Mattresses are notoriously difficult to recycle, as they are created using a range of materials including metal coils, cotton and wool fibres, springs, foam and other textiles, with little thought on how to recycle and reuse the product in the future. TFR Group has created a unique system to simplify mattress recycling, breakdown mattress materials into 19 different component parts, including steel, cotton, polyester, and foam. They have established this mattress recycling facility at our Salford Road site in Bolton and created 25 new jobs.
