In motion furniture, real differentiation doesn’t come from claiming innovation; it comes from protecting it.
At Leggett & Platt Home Furniture, we’ve long believed that intellectual property is more than a legal layer. It’s how we help our customers bring new ideas to life – and keep them alive in the market.
The ST CloudZero® mechanism is a clear example of that thinking. As part of a wide platform of recliner mechanisms engineered for wellness and tested for performance, it delivers a unique zero-gravity-feel recline that elevates the legs above the heart level, which supports circulation, comfort, and recovery.
But what makes it truly valuable to our partners?
It’s protected.
Patents That Power Confidence
The ST CloudZero® mechanism is protected by exclusive Leggett & Platt intellectual property. That means the feature set your team is designing around – the recline profile, the leg elevation mechanics, the integration points – is legally protected from imitation.
That’s what transforms a motion system into something more: a proprietary pitch.
In other words, it’s The Pitch That Rules Them All™. It’s a story your team can take to market with confidence, knowing Leggett & Platt protects their IP so it can’t easily be copied or diluted.
Why It Matters for Our Customers
- Easier product positioning: Exclusive features mean stronger marketing stories
- Reduced channel conflict: Patent protection adds clarity in competitive retail environments
- Long-term equity: The product you build today remains defensible tomorrow
A Product You Can Build Around
Whether ST CloudZero® becomes your wellness story, your aging-in-place story, or your flagship upgrade feature. It’s built to be more than a mechanism. It’s a foundation. A differentiator.
And like most of what we engineer, it’s Forged by Innovation, Guarded by Patent™.
When your product is protected by thoughtful design and exclusive IP, it’s more than marketing – it’s a strategic edge. ST CloudZero® isn’t just a mechanism. It’s part of a complete motion platform designed to anchor The Pitch That Rules Them All®.
