Many people spend hours researching the next phone, television, or kitchen appliance for their home. Yet when it comes to the bed—the place where we spend nearly a third of our lives—the decision is often made quickly and replaced only when absolutely necessary.
Sleep experts say the bed deserves the same thoughtful consideration as any other home essential. A well-designed mattress supports the body throughout the night, helping people fall asleep more comfortably and wake up feeling refreshed.
For Uratex, the country’s leading mattress brand and a long-time advocate for better sleep, this insight highlights the importance of helping Filipinos rethink how they approach rest at home. In celebration of World Sleep Day, Uratex brought its “8-Hour Movement: A Wake-Up Call for Better Sleep” to Abenson Waltermart Makati, highlighting how the right sleep environment—and the right mattress—can make a meaningful difference in achieving truly restorative sleep.
A Smarter Approach to Better Sleep
Held on March 14, 2026, the event transformed part of the Abenson retail space into an interactive setting where guests could learn more about sleep health, explore Uratex mattresses, and discover practical ways to improve their nightly rest.
By bringing the 8-Hour Movement to Abenson Waltermart Makati, Uratex places the conversation about better sleep in one of the country’s most trusted destinations for home appliances and essentials.
“Sleep is one of the most important pillars of health, yet it’s rarely discussed when people think about upgrading their homes,” said Christian Cheng, Category Manager “With the 8-Hour Movement, we hope to show how the right mattress can help people achieve deeper, more restorative sleep.”
For AbensonHOME, the collaboration aligns with its reputation as a trusted retailer for appliances and home essentials that improve everyday living.
“At AbensonHOME, we’ve always focused on helping customers find products that make everyday living better,” said Ms. Pearl Perlada, Sr. Marketing Manager.. “Partnering with Uratex allows us to highlight that sleep is just as important as any appliance or home essential.”
Expert Insights on Healthy Sleep
The afternoon program was hosted by Betong Sumaya, who guided guests including Charlie Fleming, PBB Celebrity Collab Edition Season 1 Alumni, through a series of discussions and activities centered on the importance of sleep.
A key highlight of the event was an expert talk by Dr. Reinzi Bautista, physician, Philippine Society of Sleep Medicine, who shared insights into the science behind the 8-Hour Movement. The talk emphasized how consistent sleep habits and a supportive sleep environment contribute to overall health and wellness.
Following the discussion, invited key opinion leaders and influencers joined the stage for a short interview segment, sharing their personal experiences in maintaining healthy sleep routines despite busy schedules.
Guests also took part in several interactive segments designed to make the conversation around sleep both engaging and informative.
A Celebration of Better Rest
Throughout the month, visitors can explore Uratex mattress displays at Abenson Waltermart Makati and experience firsthand how proper support and comfort can influence sleep quality.
For Uratex, the initiative reflects its long-standing mission of helping Filipinos achieve better sleep. “Sleep is one of the most important pillars of health,” Christian Cheng, Category Manager added. “By bringing the 8-Hour Movement to places where people make decisions about their homes—like AbensonHOME—we hope to remind everyone that better days begin with better nights.”
Through its collaboration with AbensonHOME, Uratex continues to bring the conversation about sleep closer to Filipino households—one mattress, one habit, and one better night’s rest at a time.
