Market Watch – AUD vs USD in May 2017

Being a company that is so reliant on imported goods it is important for us to track currency movements. Our purchase of EVA mats and foam mats is done from off-shore companies who require payment in US dollars. In this case if the USD goes up then the price of EVA mats and foam mats also goes up. If it goes in the opposite direction then so to does the price of mats. Therefore the exchange rate is a good indicator of where the pricing of gym mats is going. Below is an analysis of the exchange rate in May.

The AUD traded in a narrow range this month against the USD. It ended down just above 1% which is not a great deal considering all the things happening in the world. Early in the month we saw the USD strengthen as the Federal Reserve pointed to a 100% chance of a rate hike in June. This expectations then eased as doubts over the strength of US inflation emerged. The rate hike chances are now considerable less at 60%. The AUD eased off later in the month after lighter consumer spending and concerns we are expecting a very weak and possibly negative growth. The start of June has seen significant support for the AUD at 0.74 and a rally towards 0.75 after good economic news from China, the worlds second largest economy.

We will continue to monitor movements in the currency to better understand where the price of EVA mats and foam mats will be in the not too distant future. If you have any questions about this or anything else then give us a call. We are always ready to talk shop.

30mm Interlocking Jigsaw Mats - Black / Grey

Why Interlocking Mats Are The Best?

With the proliferation of 24 hours gyms and home training there has been an explosion of the need for anti-fatigue mats. Anti-fatigue mats not only look good and mark out the designated area for training but they assist in limiting injury due to vigorous training. The need for ant-fatigue mats can’t be overstated when discussing training and the effects on the body both positive and negative.

While they are a large variety of gym mats on the market one can not look past interlocking flooring. Interlocking flooring is a great choice when considering what type of gym mats to install in your establishment. It has many advantages over other types of floor which I will discuss here.

Easy Installation of Interlocking Floor Mats

One of the greatest advantages of these kinds of mats is that they are easy to install. With many other types of mats and flooring you generally need a professional to install them for you. Often you also need adhesive in order to keep the that or flooring from moving around. With interlocking mats this is not the case. All you need to do is arrange a pattern and determine the designated area. Calculate how many mats you require and simple install. The mats come together like a jigsaw puzzle which is why they are also know as jigsaw mats. However they are not like a complicates jigsaw puzzle. The jigsaw pattern repeats itself which makes it so much easier to put together.

Cost Effective Gym Mats

The best part of these mats is that they are the most cost effective type of training mats on the market. They are made of EVA foam which is an abundant product making the manufacturing of the product relatively cheap. Also the compact nature of the product make it easy and cheap to ship. Other mats which might come in a roll take up much more room per square meter which make it a less attractive product to ship.

Flexible Product For Gyms

As the flooring is made up of just individual mats it is very flexible when trying to customise areas for training. The mats themselves are double sided and come in different colours per side. So if you are looking at marking out areas in your training gym it makes it easier. Or if you have a martial arts gym and want to make out specific sparring area so that students know their bounds it is remarkably easy. You just make a plan and stick to it.

Without doubt Ezy Mats is the best supplier of interlocking flooring in the Australian market. We have a great range of mats and offer friendly and reliable service. So if you are looking at buying mats then give us a call. We will do our best to help you with your every need.

New Order Of 20mm Jigsaw Mats for Melbourne

We have a new order of 20mm jigsaw mats heading for our Melbourne warehouse. Our jigsaw mats especially the 20 black / grey mats have been super popular. We are not our of stock yet but we anticipate that by the time the new shipment arrives we will be well and truly our of stock. The mats coming to Melbourne are as follows:

20mm blue / red jigsaw mats
20mm black / red jigsaw mats
20mm black / grey jigsaw mats

If you are setting up a gym or a training area it is always important what kind of ant-fatigue mats you may require. Obviously there are many options and they all depend on what kind of mat you require. Just remember it is better to have something then nothing. The main use for the area in question is what you might want to consider first.

If you are looking at a weight training area or somewhere where there will be equipment the best option is usually rubber mats. Rubber mats have a higher density and are thinner so there is less room for deformation. They tend to be heavy but that doesn’t matter after to lay them down.

If it is an area where people are likely to be jumping up and down then you might want to consider jigsaw mats. These mats are make from EVA foam which means they have good absorbing qualities. Our EVA foam mats are easy to put together and come in a variety of colours and thicknesses. Just like our 20mm jigsaw mats coming to Melbourne they are very popular.

If you are looking at fitting out an area please give us a call. We are always happy to help in guiding you with your jigsaw and gym mats needs.

Market Watch

AUD stabilised against the US dollar for the first time in two week as most commodity prices rose, led by oil. A projected OPEC supply cut led crude to a November high, up 4.3%. Our chief commodity iron ore was lower. Iron ore dropped 3.4% to $70.34 a ton as Chinese port stockpiles rose to a two year high. The forecasts for average prices of $58 this quarter and $50 in 2017.

A lower Australian dollar leads to;

Higher price for imported goods.
Increase change of interest rise.
Less money in the bank for most of us.
Higher prices for interlocking jigsaw mats.

Hopefully stability will persist in the Australian economic environment.

Donald Trump American President

The TV personality Donald Trump has been elected the next president of the USA. He handily beat Hillary Clinton to the post by taking the largest number of states in the college vote. That does mean that he won college or even that it had anything to do will Trump University rather that he won the more electorates as they are called in our electoral system.

The effect of a Trump presidency may be huge depending who you ask. The effect could be both positive or negative. One thing is certainly true is that it will be an ‘interesting’ four years.

Some Trump policies as I understand them (may or may not be correct):

Deport Illegals
Spend lots of money
Cut heaps of taxes
Build a huge wall
Tweet as much as possible
Etc

Oh yes and Make America Great Again.

Now neither Donald Trump nor Hillary Clinton have anything to do with jigsaw mats (as far as I know) but I am sure that more and more people will require interlocking jigsaw mats as a result.

Cheaper Mats After Dollars Rise

The recent rise of the Australian Dollar has lead to a fall in the price of EVA interlocking jigsaw mats. The AUD has held above $0.75USD for some time now which has translated in to better jigsaw mat prices. As result Ezy Mats has chosen to pass on the saving to customers to maintain our position as the cheapest supplier of training mats in the Australian market.

Like all good imported in to Australia when the Australian dollar rises against other currencies then goods imported into Australia get cheaper. It is then up to the import as to whether they pass on this savings to the customer. Many importers, including jigsaw mat importers, choose not to pass on the savings and instead use it to improve their bottom-line. Ezy Mats are not one of them. We always pass on all saving to our customers to maintain our leading position in the EVA jigsaw mats retail market.

The price decrease has effect all our mats including:

20mm jigsaw mats
30mm jigsaw mats
40mm jigsaw mats
40mm tatami mats

Also we have 2 shipments arriving shortly to replenish our stock.
