Spring Air leases 4,550 s/f at Cummings’ TradeCenter 128

Woburn, MA Spring Air is relocating its corporate headquarters from Everett St. in Chelsea to a 4,550 s/f space at TradeCenter 128. The international mattress company is expected to occupy its new offices at the Cummings Properties managed campus in July.

Founded in 1926, Spring Air develops and provides mattress and sleep set solutions. The firm has 10 domestic factories and 35 international licensees that operate throughout the United States and in 43 countries across the globe.

Senior leasing director Rob Yacobian of Cummings Properties worked directly with Spring Air on the lease, which includes executive offices and a showroom.

“Spring Air was looking to scale up at a prominent, convenient location along the 128 corridor,” said Yacobian. “TradeCenter 128 offers the firm an easily accessible, visually striking headquarters at the exceptional value found at campuses outside Boston proper.”

The landmark TradeCenter 128 campus directly fronts I-95 and is one mile from the I-93 interchange. It offers first-class fully built-out space for a wide range of commercial uses, including corporate offices, laboratories, healthcare facilities, retail storefronts, and executive suites. The campus features numerous amenities, including Dunkin’ Donuts, Strega Prime Italian Steakhouse, Big Sky Bread Café, a day care center, dry cleaner, and multiple banks and fitness services.  

For nearly 100 years, Spring Air has been widely recognized for its mattresses and sleep sets. Its free-end offset coil design, which adjusts to each sleeper’s weight, has been replicated throughout the bedding industry.
