A Treasured History of the Aireloom Mattress

A Treasured History of the AIRELOOM Mattress

From California to gracing the White House, Aireloom has woven a tale of craftsmanship and innovation that spans over eight decades. Explore how a third-generation furniture maker turned a passion for quality into one of the most coveted mattress brands.

The Birth of Handmade Excellence (1940)

In 1940, King Karpen—a skilled craftsman steeped in a family tradition of furniture making—founded Aireloom. His vision was simple: make mattresses that combined time‑honored techniques with the finest materials. Assembled by hand, ensuring that each Aireloom mattress was as unique as the people it would comfort.

Presidential Preference (1981)

By the early 1980s, Aireloom’s reputation reached beyond California. In 1981, Ronald Reagan personally selected Aireloom for the White House, cementing the brand’s status as the pinnacle of sleep luxury.

A New Chapter: Earl S. Kluft (2004–2007)

When industry luminary Earl S. Kluft acquired Aireloom in 2004, he brought decades of bedding expertise and a passion for pushing boundaries. Within a year, the team patented the Aireloom Lift™, an innovative construction method that distinguished Aireloom from competing brands. In 2007, Kluft opened a manufacturing plant in Rancho Cucamonga, CA, marrying high‑tech precision with the brand’s steadfast commitment to handcraftsmanship.

Global Expansion (2013)

An international event occurred in 2013 when The Flex Group, based in Madrid, Spain, acquired E.S. Kluft & Company. The partnership opened new markets and broadened Aireloom’s  perspectives—while never losing sight of its artisanal roots.

Celebrating Eight Decades (2020)

In 2020, Aireloom celebrated its 80th anniversary—marked by reflection on eight decades of dedication. Today, each mattress still begins and ends with the hands of a master craftsman, just as King Karpen intended in 1940.
