UK bedding company that supplies Argos and Very enters administration after 150 years

PwC said difficult trading and cash-flow pressures led to the move, with 71 of 202 employees made redundant.

  • On May 1, the Trowbridge-based manufacturer Airsprung entered administration, resulting in 71 job losses, with joint administrators from PwC Edward Williams and Ross Connock now managing the 156-year-old company.
  • Difficult trading conditions and increasing cash flow challenges forced the manufacturer into administration, affecting its supply to major retailers including Argos and Very.
  • CEO and Director of Airsprung, Tean Dallaway, said the administration was "very sad and disappointing," while the company retains remaining staff to assist with ongoing operations.
  • Administrators will engage with customers and explore interest in the business assets on an accelerated basis over the coming weeks, encouraging any interested parties to contact them.
  • The collapse follows a difficult start to 2026 for the UK high street, as travel companies Salamander Voyages and EcoJet Airlines also entered administration recently.
