John Horjes, president of Alaska Materials, announced April 13 that the company has entered into a definitive agreement with US Mat Systems.

The agreement includes "exclusive rights" to all US Mat Systems rig mats and production for Alaska.

US Mat Systems specializes in the manufacture of quality rig mats. Founder Mike Wold worked in the industry for years, then in 2010, US Mat Systems was born. Focusing on design, building bigger, better, and tougher rig mats and walking mats, US Mat Systems became a main provider to the energy and logistics industries. Over the years, US Mat Systems has continued to introduce new patented designs along with its innovative parker linking system that can be employed to connect the mats into a 3-dimensional matrix.

Horjes said, "I believe it's safe to say that US Mat Systems have designed, built, and provided more mats to Alaska's North Slope than anyone."

An additional portion of this strategic alliance is in the works, and Alaska Materials looks forward to announcing it soon.

Alaska Materials agrees with the mantra "Drill Baby Drill" and looks forward to working with US Mat Systems and increasing its offerings.

Alaska Materials directly ships wholesale building, construction and specialty materials to all points in Alaska. For more information visit https://alaskamaterials.com/ or https://usmatsystems.com/.
