(BBC) - "Every year across Europe, there are about 30 million mattresses that are at the end of their life," says Benjamin Marien. "The vast majority of them end up in landfill or being burned."
Marien is a director at Aquinos Bedding, which makes 1.2 million mattresses per year. The company uses pure polyester covers for most new products because it can be recycled, as opposed to a mix of materials that cannot be separated.
