History
Tony and Terry Pearce (brother), started by creating carbon fiber sporting goods and wheelchairs in 1989. In the following years, they created EdiZone, LLC and had 23 trademarks in bearing, fluid, and highly elastic polymers. Patents are used in medical devices, shoes, and toys.
In 2013, the patented machine was discovered and named Mattress Max, which allowed them to create and print large pieces of elastic polymer into the mattress.
They went on to find Purple and started a Kickstarter campaign for mattress-sized mattresses that were launched on September 23, 2015. Five days later the campaign reached its original target amount of $ 25,000. On November 7, 2015, Purple's mattress campaign ended with 320 supporters promising $ 171,560.
Purple partnered with The Harmon Brothers team to launch a series of videos explaining and demonstrating the science behind the mattress. Purple videos and ads garnered over 100 million views.
On July 27, 2017, Purple announced a merger with Global Partner Acquisition Corp (GPAC) on a $ 1.1B valuation.
In November 2017, Purple acquired the Purple.com domain for an undisclosed amount.
