Shifting Focus to Mattress Manufacturing
After decades of successful service, AW Industries shifted its full focus to mattress manufacturing in the early 1990’s.
A fourth generation of family ownership had acquired the rights to the Sleepwell trademark, proudly continuing its legacy of quality products, top-notch and renowned customer service, and the most affordable and technologically current mattress and bedding designs available.
Now located in Landover, Maryland, AW Industries currently employs 200+ dedicated workers and continues to provide quality sleep products and services through a trusted network of retailer clients.
