Iris Ohyama Inc. (Headquarters: Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture; Representative Director and President: Akihiro Oyama) will sequentially launch its "Popup Sofa 1-seater/2-seater," which applies the company's mattress expertise to sofas for the first time, starting May 7, 2026, primarily through internet sites and at home centers nationwide (Note 3).
According to a survey by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the allocation of working hours has changed due to the spread of telework, increasing the time people spend at home, and there is a growing tendency to prioritize comfort at home. On the other hand, a survey conducted by our company regarding sofas (Note 4) revealed dissatisfaction with comfort, with comments such as "the seating comfort is unsatisfactory" and "I want to lie down and relax."
The newly released "Popup Sofa 1-seater/2-seater" leverages our mattress expertise. Its seat incorporates approximately 33cm pocket coils, enhancing pressure distribution like a mattress and achieving a comfortable seating experience where you can relax. In addition to the seat, the armrests use highly cushioned urethane material, making it easy to rest your elbows or head like a pillow, allowing for a relaxed posture.
Applying our compression packing technology, cultivated through mattress development, to sofas for the first time, we have achieved a compact packing size of approximately 1/5 (Note 1) compared to its restored state. This makes it easier to transport through entryways, stairs, and elevators, and even the 2-seater can be carried by one adult, reducing the burden during delivery. Furthermore, after opening from the compression bag, it restores in about 10 seconds (Note 2), allowing for comfortable use from the day of installation.
Iris Ohyama will continue to develop products closely tied to consumers' daily lives, contributing to the realization of comfortable living.
