Our work is shaped by teams located around the world, bringing local knowledge, diverse perspectives, and shared values to everything we do. While our people may speak different languages, we’re connected by a common commitment to collaboration and putting people first.
Our facilities support a wide range of industries and customers, with teams working together across time zones to deliver reliable, quality products every day.
At Leggett & Platt, we design and produce the engineered components that support how products function, feel, and perform.
Our work includes mattress and seating components that enhance comfort, automotive systems that support safety and ride quality, hydraulic cylinders used in industrial equipment, and specialized components for furniture, flooring, and textiles.
While these parts often work behind the scenes (within your products), they play an essential role in the products people rely on every day.
We are a global manufacturer that creates engineered products found in homes, workplaces, and vehicles around the world. Founded in 1883, we focus on components that improve comfort, performance, and everyday life – often in ways you don’t see, but definitely feel.
With operations across the globe, our strength comes from the people who show up each day to do meaningful work. Across teams, locations, and roles, we’re connected by shared values, a commitment to quality, and pride in what we make, and how we make it.
On National Skilled Trades Day, we celebrate the machinists and skilled trades professionals whose knowledge and experience power our operations.
Skilled trades are critical to manufacturing today – and to the future of our business. Thank you to our team members who apply their expertise every day to keep us moving forward.
Today begins Administrative Professionals Week – a time to celebrate the people who keep everything running smoothly, often behind the scenes, always with care and skill.
To our administrative professionals: thank you for keeping us organized, connected, and moving forward! You embody what it means to put people first!
Our team recently sponsored and attended Ooh La Lafayette, the annual fundraiser for Lafayette House – an organization providing compassionate services that empower individuals and families to heal from domestic violence, sexual assault, and substance use disorders. Their work has a profound impact on individuals and families in Joplin, Missouri, and the surrounding communities.
This year’s theme – Written in the Stars – featured letters from residents to their future selves and artwork from children, offering a meaningful perspective on the impact of the organization’s work.
We are proud of our colleagues whose leadership and commitment contributed to the event’s success, raising a record level of support to further the mission and help ensure access to essential services that promote safety, dignity, and hope.
Thank you to our team for putting people first.

Today is International Fun at Work Day. Work is how we earn a living, but it doesn’t have to be boring. You can get things done and have fun at the same time.
A survey by BrightHR found that 79% of employees believe having fun at work helps them be more productive. When people enjoy their work, they’re also more engaged, and that can lead to 21% higher profitability for companies. A little fun at work can go a long way.
Here is a snapshot of our fun – from Employee Appreciation Day celebrations, producing company events, holiday scavenger hunts, and anniversary celebrations – our teams love finding time to laugh.
Have fun today!
Today we recognize International Women’s Day – a moment to acknowledge the women whose work, ideas, and contributions help shape our teams, our communities, and our shared success.
On this Employee Appreciation Day, we want to recognize and thank our incredible teams around the world.
Each day, you show up with dedication, teamwork, and a commitment to doing great work for one another and for L&P. Your contributions and resilience make a meaningful impact, and we’re grateful for everything you do.
Thank you.
This month marks an important leadership transition at Spühl, our Switzerland-based company known for designing and manufacturing high-precision wire-forming machines for pocket springs and other coil products.
After many successful years as CEO, Thomas Bolthauser has stepped down from his role, leaving behind a long legacy of collaboration, innovation, and customer partnership. His leadership helped shape Spühl’s strategic direction and build a solid foundation for continued success.
We’re excited to welcome Jens Westh as Spühl’s new leader. Jens joined Spühl in October 2025, bringing with him many years of management experience in international industrial companies such as MAN, FLSmidth and, most recently, as Managing Director at Maagtechnic. Jens will play a key role in the strategic development of Spühl while building on its engineering excellence and global relationships.
As Thomas continues to support Spühl in an advisory role, we thank him for his service and contributions over the years and wish Jens every success as he leads the team forward.
Please join us in thanking Thomas and welcoming Jens!
