Overview

FBF bed&more (Fränkische Bettwarenfabrik GmbH) is a German supplier of bedding and textile solutions for the hospitality and gastronomy sectors. The company focuses on box spring beds, mattresses, pillows, duvets, bed linen and terry textiles tailored to hotels, restaurants and laundries. It is known for offering coordinated, contract-grade sleep systems and textiles rather than retail consumer collections, serving a wide range of customers from small independent hotels to international hotel chains.

History

The company traces its roots to an embroidery service founded in 1948 in Neustadt an der Aisch by Josef and Wilfrieda Kühnl, which laid the foundation for Fränkische Bettwarenfabrik. In 1979, FBF emerged as a producer of bed linen and bedding products for the commercial market. Over time it expanded from embroidery and basic bedding into a broader portfolio including box spring beds, mattresses and hotel textiles. The business has remained family-linked and later became a daughter company of HK Holding AG, with the founders’ son Helmut Kühnl in a leadership role. Today it continues to focus on professional bedding and textile solutions for hotels and related commercial customers.

Reputation

Among hotel operators, purchasing cooperatives and laundries, FBF bed&more is regarded as a reliable contract supplier of sleep systems and textiles with consistent quality and practical service. Its strengths are breadth of hotel-focused assortment, customization options and experience with large chains as well as smaller properties. Some buyers may see the brand as more utilitarian than design-driven, and it is less visible to end consumers than retail-facing bedding brands. Overall it is positioned as a specialist partner for professional hospitality rather than a lifestyle or luxury consumer brand.
