Dow Jones Description

In May 6, 1998, Bob Trussell, Tempur-Pedic Founder and CEO, was invited to NASA headquarters in Washington, DC to attend a press conference in Tempur-Pedic's honor. There, NASA Administrator, Daniel S. Goldin, recognized Tempur-Pedic for successfully using NASA technology to create economic opportunity and promote a better quality of life for humankind - in both the consumer and medical sector. After receiving NASA's Plaque of Recognition, Tempur-Pedic presented the Administration with our one-millionth pillow. This pillow and other similar pillows are on display at NASA Headquarters, Johnson Space Center, Kennedy Space Center, and the Smithsonian Institution. Soon after the NASA Press Conference, Tempur-Pedic was licensed by the United States Space Foundation to use the official "Certified Technology" seal on our product packaging and marketing materials.
