Filipinos enjoy cherishing the times we share with family, friends, and loved ones especially during the holiday season. For the majority, the best memories are created inside the bedroom where family members bond or catch up with each other before they call it a day. 

Giving salute to the importance of family traditions, Uratex, who is celebrating 50 years this 2018 unveiled a Christmas-themed video to celebrate family memories made inside the bedroom, their common area of solitude, and the bed, a central and key witness to that celebration. 

The video starts by showing a young man longing for the love and company of their mother, supposedly an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW). He has not seen her as she has not come home for the past three years working overseas. Not a day passes that the young man misses his mother, where he shared many fun and memorable moments with her while at his bedroom during his childhood. And now that Christmas is near, the longing is felt more than ever. 

Meanwhile, the young man’s elder brother also does his best to overcome his yearning for their mother’s presence by focusing all his strength on his job. He silently cares for his brother’s needs and sees to it that his younger brother continues to strive to be the best individual that he can be. But like his younger brother, he misses his mother as well. 

Alas, their wish was granted on Christmas Day when, as they try to celebrate Christmas just like in the previous years without their mother, they were pleasantly surprised with her arrival. The joy in the younger brother’s eyes was evident with their mother’s presence in a special time such as Christmas, finally, as one family. 

For the elder brother, the arrival of their mother was the perfect time to tell her that he is now ready to take on the responsibility of caring for the family’s needs. With their mother’s long-awaited homecoming, it will be the perfect opportunity to create new memories again together—as one family.

Uratex Philippines, the undisputed leader in the foam manufacturing industry believes that family love and comfort are always at the forefront in the tradition of selfless care and service to the Filipinos. Uratex believes that family love, caring and looking out for the welfare and greater comfort of each other is vital. Each Uratex bed provides ultimate comfort to promote a healthful and relaxed sleep night after night.

Each mattress that rolls out of the company’s manufacturing facilities is the result of the Chengs’ vision to share comfort with every Filipino.

After their mother’s arrival, what special Yuletide celebration awaits the two sons?

Sleep is my refuge. It is one of the many things and activities I look forward to daily. My day won’t be complete without a good sleep. And a nice bed is like a safe haven for me. Well, when it comes to sleep and beds, there’s only one expert – URATEX.

Uratex is the country’s leader in manufacturing quality foams and mattresses. It continues to innovate and deliver comfort, class, and value for more than 48 years now. No wonder Uratex is called “Sleep Specialist”.

We believe that in matters related to sleep and finding the perfect mattress, it’s not just about size, softness and support anymore. It’s all about providing superior sleep, and our latest offerings are focused on giving that,” explains Cherry Wong-Tan, Marketing Director of Uratex Philippines.

The brand introduces the new Uratex Premium Mattress Collection that offers superior sleeping experience - Perfect Serenity Aura Fresh, Orthocare Biorytmic, Senso Memory Ultima Plus and Premium Touch Romance.

This was such a perfect timing! We just recently moved to our new home and a very wonderful bed would definitely help in completing the set. Essentially, I’m not the type who has difficulty in sleeping when the place is still a stranger to me (could be the other way around), but I could use some really good sleep after all the stress and busy schedule and emotional ride I have been through recently.

Check out what I had to choose from the cutting-edge Uratex mattresses.
Hate the smell of saliva or urine while you sleep? Perfect Serenity Aura Fresh helps get rid of bad odors in your bed. 
It has odor-repelling and long-lasting odor protection technology that will ensure fresh and clean sleeping environment. It has convoluted high-resilient foam with an egg crate design so air-flow is unrestricted.
If you’re newly weds and would like to keep the flame alive even after your honeymoon stage, the Premium Touch Romance bed is perfect for you. The mattress ticking is infused with ginseng, ylang-ylang and cinnamon essences that gives a sweet and spiced romantic ambiance in bed. Its unique perfume micro-capsules have a long-lasting fragrance to inspire intimate bond for couples. It also features Smart Reflex Pocket Spring System that cleverly separates body movement so sleeping will not be interrupted. What a sweet way to end the day!
To promote overall well-being, Orthocare Biorytmic mattress uses advanced sleep technology. The rejuvenating minerals restore the energy and regulate the body’s biorhythm. This is also perfect for me as it helps reduce stress and provides better balance and concentration. It also has Orthofirm that can relieve my back pains.

I chose Sensory Memory Ultima Plus because it can help me achieve a good sleep faster. 
It has cooling technology in the form of Hydragel beads which absorbs heat. The memory foam is also wrapped with Cooler knit fabric which provides enhanced cooling effect. No air-con? No worries. I can now enjoy a refreshing sleep! It is exactly what I needed. I love the luxurious comfort layers that carefully adjust with the body movement. This will save me from painful pressure points. Can’t wait to crash every night after a long day.

Lately I've been staying up late to finish multiple deadlines and when I am running low on sleep, it seems as if the whole world is out to get me. I will often complain about every little things like Why everyone so irritating? Why is the traffic so bad? Who are these awful drivers? or wait could it just be me?
