The original company was founded by David Trickett and Paul Rodgers in 1990 and was formally known as Dimegrove Engineering. Both Paul and David had worked within the bedding industry for over 20 years, in bedding components supply  and mattress machine developments. The coming together of the two in 1990 saw a radically new approach to the UK mattress machinery industry. Quickly winning favor with many companies within the industry Dimegrove forged a name as a reliable service company to the mattress industry and a supplier of used and reconditioned machinery.

In 1994 Dimegrove was approached by one of the major UK mattress manufacturer to develop a machine which could replicate the effect found on hand stitched mattress borders, a very laborious task, which took around 5 hours by hand. Dimegrove took the opportunity with both hands and within 8 months the BordaTac was introduced to the market. The BordaTac side stitching machine reduced the operation to a mere 5 minutes. Thanks to the success of the BordaTac system Dimegrove continued to develop other systems to add to their range including mattress tufting machines, and vertical border machines.

In 1997 the Matramax Tape Edge machine made its debut. Once again Dimegrove provided the industry with what it wanted. The Matramax Electronic tape edge machine greatly reduced operator fatigue thanks to electronic speed control and other operator additions making the tape edging operation far more productive.
