After several years of quiet innovation behind the scenes, Material Matters – one of the golf industry’s most trusted buying groups – is stepping back into the spotlight with renewed energy and an expanded focus on helping golf clubs reduce costs and buy better.
For more than a decade, Material Matters has built a strong reputation for saving golf clubs money across a wide range of areas, from energy and waste management to course consumables, clubhouse operations, and professional services. By combining the collective purchasing power of many clubs across the UK, the company delivers real savings without compromising on quality or service.
Now, after a period of reflection and reinvestment, Material Matters is re-emerging with a sharpened purpose – to make cost management simpler, smarter, and more sustainable for every golf club.
A trusted partner in changing times
The golf industry has evolved dramatically in recent years. Rising costs, shifting member expectations, and the increasing importance of environmental responsibility have placed new pressures on club managers. Material Matters understands these challenges and has adapted its approach to help clubs meet them head-on.
“Our mission has always been to make a tangible difference to the bottom line for our partner clubs,” said Paul Mould, Director at Material Matters. “But it’s about more than savings. We’re helping clubs’ future-proof their operations, strengthen supplier relationships, and free up time to focus on what really matters – running great golf facilities.”
Broader scope, same trusted ethos
While Material Matters remains best known for its expertise in utilities and consumables, the company’s offering has grown. Clubs can now access group deals and expert advice across a wider range of categories, including:
- Utilities – competitive energy and water contracts, plus sustainability consultancy
- Course & clubhouse consumables – from fertilisers and fuels to cleaning products and catering supplies
- Professional services – insurance, telecoms, and compliance solutions designed specifically for golf operations
Each area is backed by carefully selected suppliers, transparent pricing, and the assurance that Material Matters works exclusively in the best interests of its member clubs.
Renewed focus on sustainability and community
As the industry embraces a greener future, Material Matters is supporting clubs to reduce their environmental impact through smarter procurement. From sourcing sustainable products to identifying carbon-cutting efficiencies, the company is positioning itself as a key partner for golf clubs that want to operate responsibly as well as efficiently.
“Our goal is simple,” Paul continues. “To make it easier for clubs to save money, save time, and make decisions that benefit their members, their businesses, and the planet.”
With a refreshed brand presence, a dedicated team, and a renewed commitment to the golf community, Material Matters is once again ready to make a difference – one saving at a time.
