There
are two kinds of mats for which people search: 1
Mats that ought to exist since there is a pressing need
for something in the way of a mat to solve a certain situation
that had better be resolved in a hurry or someone might
get upset, and
2. Mats that definitely do exist because
you either have one in your possession right now and need
another one or a new one, or you saw this mat some place,
or noticed it in a catalog a while back, or had one where
you used to work, and now, where we got it, or who we got
it from is a total mystery. |

|
How
people Search for the mat they need is another story all over
again. |
|
You
can plow through old purchase orders or invoices in the accounting
department in hopes of following the paper trail right to
the exact mat you want. But that could be a great deal of
work with slim prospects of success since mats, if purchased
correctly, can last so long that the need to retain the paper
work that they generated has long since past. |
|
Looking
at every little nook and cranny on the mat for a sign or a
number or a symbol that will lead you to the manufacturer,
is another way to search. |
|
Calling
your local industrial supply guy, or your advertising specialties
group, or the floor covering and carpet people in town, or
the office supply center, or the kitchen equipment folks,
or the safety equipment vendor are all good ideas too. |
|
You
can spend some time in the library with any number of source
books with advertisements from companies that make all different
kinds of mats, and that might work. You can call the companies
and get more catalogs and literature and sample pieces, until
you start to see just how vast a field of mats there really
is out there; and still your mat need will remain, most probably,
unresolved. |
|
The
World Wide Web is a great way to search for known mat quantities
and "hoped for" mat products. That may have been
how you happened upon our site, www.thematking.com,
and we are glad you did. But, the "Web", in its
vastness and its greatness, can be a daunting experience when
looking for anything, even a measly mat. |
|
There
is a good chance that it is already on our web site. We have
assembled a Site Map,
which is our attempt at capturing the length and breath of
our product pages in one single place, where we hope that
moving from general categories to more and more specific ones
will lead customers to the mats they seek. Many of the search
engines on the "Web" have indexed our various product
pages, and serve them up on request, which makes finding us,
and through us, hopefully finding just the right mat that
much easier. In that same vain, we include the following
localized Search Engine with the courtesy of "Google". |
|
|
We
encourage you to share with us any finding that may be in
need of perfecting, or improvement, and thank you in advance
for your kind kind cooperation and understanding while navigating
The Mat King web site. |
|
If
the mat you need is not yet on our web site, there is a good
chance it may be in our knowledge bank since there are many
more products in The Mat King knowledge bank than as yet displayed
on our web site. So, if you are still having a problem after
exhausting the many ways of searching for the mat you need,
we encourage you to contact us directly by
e-mail, or regular mail,
by phone, (800)442-6544, or by Fax (800)Mats-Fax (628-7329),
or in person if you are near by. We will probably ask you
a slew of questions in an effort to nail down the exact requirements
of the mat you need, or we will ask you to e-mail us a photograph
of the mat you have and are hoping to replace, or to send
us a piece of the mat you have or the entire mat, if it can
not be cut, so we can hopefully identify what it is and who
might have made it. |

In
any case, we look forward to serving your matting needs. |
