About us

  We here at Purple Innovation are an American comfort technology company based in Alpine, Utah, USA. We specialize in the direct-to-consumer sale of mattresses, seat cushions, back cushions, pillows and platform bases.

Purple’s goal is to help 1 BILLION people feel better. We do that by making people laugh through our marketing, addressing daily pains with our unique products, and giving back to communities around the country.

Our founders, Tony and Terry Pearce, began by creating carbon fiber sporting goods and wheelchairs in 1989. In the following years, they created EdiZone, LLC and own 23 trademarks in cushioning materials, fluids, and hyper-elastic polymers. The patents are used in medical devices, shoes, and toys. In 2013, the Pearces set out to combine all their knowledge of cushioning into the world’s best mattress.

Purple launched January 2016 and is the culmination of 20+ years of research and experience. We’ve had two crazy-successful Kickstarter campaigns, have built an incredible brand from scratch, and are becoming more and more of a household name across the U.S. (and soon to be the globe!).

When you join the Purple Team, you have a chance to really help people. Plus, you may get a first shot at the products you helped us create. Most importantly, we exist to solve pain. That means we dedicate significant resources to dreaming up the best pain-solving products out there and then make them a reality.
