3D Mattress Rendering for Liebscher & Bracht: Mattress & Pillow CGI Case Study
When a new sleep product is being prepared for launch, product images need to do much more than simply show what it looks like. They need to explain the construction, communicate materials and features, and create a consistent visual presentation across product pages, advertising, marketplaces, and other marketing channels.
This was the challenge behind our collaboration with Liebscher & Bracht, a German company known for products focused on movement, recovery, and sleep.
ALFA3D was approached to create a complete set of 3D mattress and pillow renderings, including clean product images, lifestyle interior scenes, and exploded views showing the internal construction of the products.

The Client's Request
The project started with a message from Fabian Grieb, Director Operations & Business Excellence at Liebscher & Bracht:
“Hey Dmitriy, can you help us with some renderings for one of our new Products :)?
I added you some samples, we are looking for something like the files attached.
Which data do you need from a customer to get the best possible result? Do you need technical drawings, sufficient photos and rough dimensions? What would be the best information basis for you?”
This is actually a common question we receive from mattress manufacturers.
One of the main advantages of 3D product visualization is that a complete physical product or professional photo shoot is not always necessary to start production.
Depending on the project, we can create an accurate 3D model from:
The more accurate the source information is, the more precisely we can reproduce the final product.

What We Created
For Liebscher & Bracht, we created CGI visuals for both the mattress and pillow.
The project included three main types of visualization.
The project included three main types of visualization.
Mattress and Pillow Renderings on a Neutral Background
We created clean 3D product renderings on a neutral background designed to clearly show the shape, proportions, materials, quilting, edges, and overall design of the products.
These images are particularly useful for:
Unlike traditional product photography, CGI makes it possible to maintain exactly the same camera angles, lighting, scale, and visual style across an entire product range.
This becomes especially valuable when a mattress manufacturer has multiple models, sizes, firmness options, or product generations.
These images are particularly useful for:
- e-commerce product pages;
- online shops;
- product catalogs;
- marketplaces;
- retailer presentations;
- advertising materials;
- product comparison pages.

Lifestyle Mattress Renderings
A mattress photographed or rendered against a plain background explains the product.
A lifestyle mattress rendering helps the customer imagine owning it.
For the project, we placed the products into carefully designed bedroom environments.
The goal was not to make the interior itself the focus of the image. Instead, the room had to support the product and create the right emotional context around it.
With CGI, we can control every part of a lifestyle scene:
This allows mattress brands to create lifestyle imagery that matches their visual identity without organizing a physical interior photo shoot.

- bedding;
- camera angle;
- décor;
- color palette;
- product positioning.
This allows mattress brands to create lifestyle imagery that matches their visual identity without organizing a physical interior photo shoot.
Mattress Exploded View Rendering
One of the most important parts of the project was creating mattress exploded view renderings.
A mattress is a difficult product to sell visually because most of its important features are hidden inside.
From the outside, many mattresses can look very similar.
But the differences that actually define the product — foam layers, support zones, comfort materials, covers, and internal construction — are invisible.
An exploded mattress rendering solves this problem.
We separated the mattress into its individual layers and visualized the internal construction so customers could immediately understand how the product was built.
Each layer can be shown with its own:
This type of visualization turns technical product information into something customers can understand almost instantly.

Pillow Exploded View
We used the same approach for the pillow.
A standard pillow image communicates its exterior design, but an exploded pillow rendering can reveal the internal structure and explain how different components work together.
For sleep brands, this is particularly useful when the pillow contains multiple layers, inserts, ergonomic shapes, removable elements, or different materials.

Why CGI Works Well for Mattress Manufacturers
Mattresses are unusually well suited to 3D visualization.
Traditional photography can show the exterior of a mattress very effectively, but showing its internal construction usually requires physical prototypes, specially prepared cutaway samples, or extensive post-production.
With 3D mattress rendering, the same digital product model can be used to create many different marketing assets.
From one model we can produce:
This makes CGI especially useful for manufacturers managing multiple SKUs or launching products before all physical samples are available.

With 3D mattress rendering, the same digital product model can be used to create many different marketing assets.
From one model we can produce:
- mattress cutout images;
- white-background product images;
- mattress exploded views;
- mattress cross-section images;
- close-up material renders;
- lifestyle bedroom scenes;
- different camera angles;
- color variations;
- firmness versions;
- product feature graphics;
- animations;
- promotional videos.
This makes CGI especially useful for manufacturers managing multiple SKUs or launching products before all physical samples are available.
Consistency Across the Product Range
Another important benefit is visual consistency.
During a traditional photo shoot, small differences in lighting, camera position, mattress placement, or room setup can make product images from different sessions look inconsistent.
With 3D visualization, we can reuse the same virtual studio.
The camera, lighting, environment, and composition remain controlled.
A new mattress can therefore be added months later and still visually match the existing product range.
For e-commerce brands, this creates a cleaner and more professional product catalog.

Visualizing Products Before Production
CGI can also become part of the product development and launch process.
A manufacturer does not necessarily need to wait until the final production sample is available before creating marketing imagery.
If dimensions, materials, construction information, and sufficient references are available, a 3D mattress model can often be created earlier.
This allows marketing teams to prepare:
while manufacturing is still being finalized.

The Result
The final delivery gave Liebscher & Bracht a consistent set of visual assets for presenting the mattress and pillow from several perspectives.
Instead of relying on a single type of product image, the brand could show both the exterior design and the construction hidden inside the products.
The project combined:
Clean product CGI
for a clear and consistent presentation.
Lifestyle renderings
for creating emotional context around the products.
Exploded view renderings
for visually explaining the mattress and pillow construction.
This combination is particularly effective for sleep products because customers can both see the finished product and understand what makes it different internally.
