The Benefits of Buying Australian Made

Do you know where your household products come from? Do you know who makes them? How much waste is produced? If labour conditions for workers are fair?

It's not always easy to know exactly how our everyday products are made. Buying locally produced items allows us to see every step along the way. We get to know the manufacturer, the workers, and the environmental impact our dollars have.

All Dusk&Dawn mattresses are made using Australian made foams and fabrics. We proudly use GECA (Good Environmental Choice Australia) and Oeko-Tex certified materials - these standards ensure stringent environmental standards and practices.

Being aware and taking responsibility for how we shop helps us make informed decisions about whether or not we want to continue consuming certain goods. The benefits of buying local are clear: manufacturers have access to raw materials at lower prices; they use less energy during operations and they often pay higher wages (better working conditions and fewer accidents.)

Our Dusk&Dawn mattresses are made under license by Comfort Sleep who have been making quality mattresses for over 40 years, right here in Melbourne, Australia.

Results for consumers and communities are better too - Australian made products offer longer lifespans because they are made with quality and attention to detail. In addition, when you purchase an item made by someone who lives nearby, you're supporting your community's economy and helping people stay connected to where they live.

Yes, buying an Australian-made product is typically more expensive than a similar item made offshore. Reasons being; higher labour costs here sure, but Australian workers are treated fairly. They work in safe workplaces with fair conditions - imagine these people are your friends and family- because they are!

The main benefit for consumers is quality- you won’t find it better anywhere else. Every one of our mattresses is custom made for each customer, one by one. We don’t have a warehouse full of stock gathering dust. This does mean you might have to wait a little longer - but it’s worth the wait for something you will sleep on for the next ten years.

At Dusk&Dawn it’s our mission to keep every part of our process local. From the Aussie-grown wool to the Melbourne manufacturing, we are proud to play a role in keeping the economy strong and supporting our hard-working people.

Being an Australian brand means more than just sticking an ‘Australian Made Kangaroo’ badge on goods. It’s a belief, a privilege and an honour - a symbol of trust we’re proud to wear.

We encourage our customers to continue to seek environmentally friendly alternatives to products they use every day. This includes purchasing goods produced locally or by companies with an ethical stance on sustainability.

Dusk&Dawn is proud to be Australian made, and a loved brand empowering small Australian businesses and the people behind them.

FAQ’s

Delivery Timing and Expectations

We are NOT an 'Amazon' type business and we are NOT a bed-in-a-box either. We are a family business based locally in Melbourne and we actually care about the quality of product we sell and the quality of sleep we promise. For this very reason, we don't compromise on time or quality and make every mattress to order ~ tailor made by hand specifically to our customers needs.

Now sometimes this may take a little longer, but rest assured once you receive and sleep on one of our mattresses, you'll soon understand and appreciate why we are super proud of our master tailors and the quality products we make ~ for you! Quality like ours takes time and is well worth the wait.

PSSS. So please don't compare us to other brands promising to ship next day or ones that are made overseas.

What is included in your white glove delivery service?

Our white glove delivery service is a premium offering that sets us apart. When you choose this service, you can expect a dedicated two-person team to handle your mattress with care. They will transport it to your desired location, place it directly on your bedframe, and ensure a seamless and hassle-free experience for you. Additionally, we offer the option to remove your old mattress and responsibly dispose of it, saving you the trouble of dealing with its disposal. This comprehensive white glove delivery service prioritizes your comfort and convenience every step of the way.

What happens to my old mattress?

Metro locations: for a fee of $100, we will collect your old mattress and take it to a mattress recycler. Unfortunately we can not offer our mattress collection service in regional locations at this stage.

Do your mattresses come in a box?

No, our products are made using high quality materials which do not allow them to be compressed, rolled and squashed into a box. When this is done, quality is compromised and we don't do that.

How do I choose the mattress that is right for me/us?

We have carefully engineered two feels in each model, these two feels will please most. If you are looking for rock hard or super cloud soft, you are in the wrong place.

Comfy-Medium, our most popular feel is supportive with added comfort. Firm-Support is a little firmer and is comfort with added support.

Feel free to give us a call if you would like to discuss the options with one of our trained staff.

Are Dusk&Dawn mattresses environmentally friendly?

Yes, all Dusk&Dawn mattresses are made using Australian made foams and fabrics. We proudly use GECA (Good Environmental Choice Australia) and Oeko-Tex certified materials ensuring the most environmentally responsible products.

What type of bed frame do you recommend?

Our mattresses are designed for best performance when used in conjunction with our matching classic slimline base as part of a total sleep set. 

Where can I try your mattresses?

Right in the comfort of your own home! You have 100 nights to decide if you are happy with your selection. It certainly beats 20 minutes in a mattress shop.

Can I order over the phone?

Unfortunately not, for your security all orders must go through our website.

Do you have AfterPay?

Yes, we also accept ApplePay, Zip and PayPal too.

How much is delivery?

Our Delivery service is 100% FREE in metro areas, Australia Wide. For regional areas it's $250 flat rate. Certain regional areas may experience some delays in delivery. Please ask us for accurate delivery times.

What areas do you deliver to?

We are currently delivering to most regions of Australia excluding NT & TAS ( for potential deliveries to these areas please email support@duskanddawn.com.au ), including regional areas. Due to current freight delays and ongoing Covid-19 restrictions, regional deliveries may take up to 3-4 weeks. Please ask us for accurate delivery times.

What bed sheets fit the Signature mattress?

Due to the height of the Signature mattress being 38cm high, we advise you purchase 'Super Queen' size fitted sheets for a Queen size mattress as they will fit more comfortably around your mattress. These can be found at most bedding retailers across Australia including Adairs.

Is there a trial period?

We want you to be completely satisfied with your new mattress. For this reason, all Dusk&Dawn mattresses come with a 100 night comfort guarantee. During this time you can test your new mattress out in the comfort of your own home. You must own the mattress for a minimum of 30 nights from the date received, this will give your body the adequate time to adjust. If between, night 31-100 you still are not satisfied with your sleep, then let us know and we will arrange to collect your mattress and adjust the firmness before returning it right back to you FREE of charge. 

 

Please... Don't pay retail prices?

We are sold purely online. If we were to sell to popular retailers, our prices would be double and they would make huge margins. We want to pass those saving on to you - the customer. We pride ourselves on value for money. Quality Australian made workmanship using only premium materials. You simply won't get this quality of build at these prices at the major retailers. They need to make a big margin to pay for staff, lease or bricks and mortar.

Do we offer a refund?

Yes we do offer a refund. But first:

1. You must go through 1 Comfort change first as per our Comfort Guarantee policy;
2. And then if you are still not happy after a further 30 nights of sleeping on it, we will happily refund your money (Minus the shipping cost of $250).
