Choose the Tudor Contract if firmness is the point. The PostureTech Core Support Springs use varied tensions and shapes to give full-body support and pressure relief, while the soft fibre comfort layer stops the surface feeling harsh. It carries reassuring credentials: OEKO-TEX certification on the cover, National Bed Federation approval, and a BugShield-treated damask cover. Yes, it's a firm, fairly traditional build rather than a plush hybrid, but that simplicity tends to mean durability, and the fillings are designed to hold their shape. At £465 for a Single it's reasonably priced for a UK-made contract-grade mattress. Mattress Online lists a 100-night trial and free delivery in 2-3 weeks, so check terms wherever you buy.
Key Features & what's inside
- Comfort Layer. Soft white synthetic fibres sit on top, which means a cosy initial feel rather than the boardy surface some extra firm mattresses have. They're durable and resilient, designed to keep their shape over time.
- Support System. PostureTech Core Support Springs use unique shapes and varied tension across the unit, which means support that adapts to different parts of your body. The aim is full-body support with pressure relief, giving the mattress its sturdy, extra firm character.

Who's it NOT for?
This is Sealy's firmest rating, so it's a poor match if you like a soft or medium feel. Lightweight side sleepers in particular may find it too unyielding at the shoulder and hip. Anyone wanting memory foam contouring or a plush pillow top should look elsewhere.
Sealy Tudor Contract Mattress
How firm is the Sealy Tudor Contract mattress?
It's rated Extra Firm, Sealy's firmest rating, described as highly supportive with a very firm, sturdy feel. That suits people who want serious orthopaedic-style support, although lighter sleepers may find it a little too solid.
What is the Sealy Tudor Contract mattress made of?
It has two main elements: a comfort layer of soft white polyester fibres and a PostureTech Core Support Spring unit with varied tensions for full-body support. The damask cover has a BugShield treatment and is OEKO-TEX certified. It's handcrafted in the UK and 26cm deep.
Does the Sealy Tudor Contract come with a trial or guarantee?
The mattress carries a 5 year guarantee. Mattress Online lists a 100-night trial, but that trial is the retailer's own offer rather than a Sealy policy, so it may not apply if you buy elsewhere.
Is the Sealy Tudor Contract suitable for guest houses or landlords?
Yes. It conforms to BS7177:2008 Source 5, the Crib 5 medium hazard fire standard required for many contract settings, which makes it suitable for guest houses, rentals and similar uses as well as ordinary homes.
What sizes does the Sealy Tudor Contract come in?
Four UK sizes: Single, Double, King and Super King, priced from £465 to £825 depending on size.
