What The Matworks Company does

The Matworks Company, doing business as MatWorks, is a US-based commercial flooring and matting manufacturer founded in 1966 and headquartered in LaGrange, Georgia (with firmographic data also listing Beltsville). The company designs, manufactures, and distributes floor protection solutions organized around four pillars: entrance systems, safer floors, comfort-at-work anti-fatigue products, and branded logo floors. Its portfolio spans entrance matting (WaterHog, SuperScrape, ColorStar, Diamond, Zephyr, Preference, Classic Brush), entrance and comfort tiles (REPP-Tile, Wyoming, Enterprise, Ambassador, PharmaEze, Preference Eze), grid systems (MatShield Pro, ProGrate, DesignLinks), anti-fatigue matting (Hog Heaven line, Comfort Premier, Cushion Select, TuffComfort), logo matting (WaterHog Inlay/Impressions HD, ColorStar Impressions HD, Floor Impressions, SuperScrape Impressions), specialty matting (CleanShield, Sure Stride, Wet Step), and luxury vinyl sales floor products (Core Defender, GeckoGrip).

Notable proprietary technologies include REPP-Tile, a closed-loop recycled PET entryway carpet tile with end-of-life recycling managed by MatWorks; WaterHog's bi-level surface design with reinforced nubs and a water dam border; GeckoGrip's microscopic suction cup backing that enables no-adhesive LVT installation; and TacFast no-glue carpet tile installation. The company holds NFSI high-traction certifications on select wet-area and entrance products and complies with DOC FF1-70 and CPSC-FF1-70 flammability standards.

MatWorks serves enterprise customers in five primary verticals: retail, grocery, pharmacy, hospitality, and commercial real estate. The company operates a consultative, sales-led direct distribution model targeting enterprise buyers via phone (1-833-628-9757), website contact forms, and a sample request program, with bundled professional installation and full lifecycle services including removal and recycling for REPP-Tile. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Content marketing (industry-specific white papers, case studies, specification sheets, and videos) is used as a top-of-funnel lead generation motion across facilities management, retail, grocery, hospitality, and healthcare. Geographic footprint is limited to the United States.
