About us
Built by a builders merchant. Now used by 40+ construction companies.
Material Mind started inside a builders merchant, where pricing supplier quotations and handling orders meant endless calls, emails and spreadsheets.
Our story
While pricing supplier quotations and orders for customers, we saw the same problem every day: requests arrived in different formats, quotes were hard to compare and orders were difficult to track.
So we built a better way — one place to take a site request through supplier enquiries, comparison, approval, ordering and delivery.
