Sofas and Bedding: Pricing Custom-Made Items, Option by Option

53.6% of households now sleep on a mattress that is 160 cm or wider (Parlons Literie Observatory 2025), and according to the IPEA, larger sizes drive average basket sizes. In a shrinking market, value is shifting from the mattress itself to its features: width, fabric, convertible options, and relaxation features. But at many retailers, these add-ons have accumulated over the course of various collections, without anyone knowing the margin on each one.

This white paper shows how to treat each option as a product in its own right—with its own cost, perceived value, and target margin—and then organize the options into a pricing matrix governed by six consistency rules. Figures are audited and dated 2025 and 2026 (IPEA and L'Ameublement français, Observatoire Parlons Literie, Ecomaison 2026 rating scale).

  • Why does the profit margin decrease when a customer customizes an item, and why is the fabric surcharge often sold at nearly cost?
  • How the eco-fee, shipping, and production time vary based on width, weight, and composition
  • How to price a size range based on a pivot size, and charge for extra fabric by the meter rather than per pattern
  • How to Measure the Mix Effect and Choose Between a Discount and a Free Option
  • How to position yourself in the market using sample configurations and bring the grid to life with four indicators per option
