They come in a classic way in black or gray, but they can also be designed individually – there is the dirty fishing mats that everything revolves around the company Eder. 6000 mats per day are exchanged by the family business by the family business by the family business. The largest investment in company history is to increase the service to a higher level.
For a clean first impression, the motto for the Eder Group, which started cleaning mats in 1969. As a subcontractor for the then large laundry of Habsburg from Vienna, they had entered the company. After the contract was terminated, they only started in 1981 and have long been the market leader in Matte Service in Austria.
The largest investment since the company was established
More than 28,000 customers trust the company’s service with its head office in Luftenberg (Upper Austria). And now further invested here. About 15 million euros flows to the construction of a new laundry and logistics hall, for which the groundbreaking ceremony recently took place. 3500 square meters is added by the autumn 2026. “We double our cleaning and storage capacities,” says Gerhard Eder. It is the largest investment since the company was founded in 1932.
What exactly does Eder do? You offer an exchange and cleaning service for dirt falls. Moreover, such floor mats are also rented. About 6000 pieces are changed in Austria every day. Market leadership must be increased with the recently started expansion.
There is a chip in every mat
Fix: Automation will play an important role in the new laundry and logistics hall. All processes from cleaning to storage are controlled by chip data in the registered mats. “Based on the product criteria, each mat is supplied with the pre -defined washing process and then automatically stored until the next service interval,” Gerhard Eder reveals.
With 182 employees, the group from Upper Austria generated the turnover of 22 million euros last year.
