How we're building the future of home protection

Smart MAT started with a simple insight: your home's first defense happens at the door. We're transforming that moment into active protection.

Our story

How Smart MAT Was Born

Larry Ford founded Smart MAT to solve a problem that traditional home security misses: invisible threats entering through the soles of your shoes. By combining Far-UVC technology with everyday entry points, Smart MAT transforms how you think about home protection—not as a system you monitor, but as a space that protects itself.
