Futon Company: futons and furniture for small spaces since 1980

Futon Company is a British company established in 1980 that sells futons, sofa beds and furniture designed to make the most of small spaces. Its catalogue is sold through its online store and a network of local stores in the UK, with options to buy online or order in store.

Specialisation in sofa beds and futons

The core of its offering is sofa beds and futons, available in single, two-seater and three-seater sizes, as well as in daybed format. The company also sells beds in single, double and king size, including models with storage, platform and tatami, as well as mattresses and futon covers.

Furniture and home organisation

Beyond sleep, the catalogue covers storage furniture such as wardrobes, chests of drawers, shelving, bookcases, side and coffee tables, desks, dining tables, chairs, stools, mirrors and TV and media furniture. It includes specific solutions for organising the home, such as stackable storage, underbed drawers, hooks and rails, and furniture for the hallway, bathroom, kitchen and home office.

The selection is completed with textile and decorative accessories: bedspreads and throws, cushions, robes and loungewear, rugs, towels, vases, planters, faux plants and decorative bags. It also offers lighting, with table lamps, floor lamps and pendant lampshades, and kitchen and breakfast items such as ceramics and glassware.

Design and manufacturing in London

The company highlights that its products are British-designed and made in London, using natural materials such as solid oak, birch and pine. Its approach focuses on quality furniture designed for small spaces, with a one-year guarantee on its items.
