Why are they called “Royal-Pedic” mattresses?
“Royal” refers to the fact that the company’s founder, Abe Kaplan, mastered the art of high-end mattress making during the 1930s and 1940s at Heals of London, a 300-year-old company that made mattresses for the Royal Family of England and other dignitaries. “Pedic” refers to the orthopedic (musculoskeletal) support provided by Royal-Pedic mattresses. Nowadays, there are many bedding companies that use the term “pedic” to describe their products, but Royal-Pedic has been providing unmatched orthopedic support for over 50 years.
