Wheeling, Ill. - Protect-A-Bed has relocated its U.S. headquarters to a new office and warehouse facility here from Northbrook, Ill.

The new facility includes 20,000 square feet of office space and 200,000 square feet of warehousing. The previously plant occupied 31,000 square feet.

"Protect-A-Bed is on track to grow 35% over last year. Our new facility will help perpetuate our continual growth pattern and poise us for accelerated growth," said James Bell, ceo of Protect-A-Bed.

The new facility is projected to help Protect-A-Bed to increase the business four or five times the current size, he added. "It will facilitate a quicker turn-around time for processing orders."

The company's encasements and protectors are sold through mattress shops, home furnishings stores and retail stores as well as hospitality and pest control distributors.
