Not exactly true. Lloyds are not an OEM supplier, they are an officially licensed manufacturer for aftemarket mats.

They must pass stringent quality standards as a matter of meeting the license requirements, but they do not supply Porsche, MB, Bimmmer, or other manufacturers directly.

They may supply USA dealers for aftermarket installations, but that differs from actually producing them for the manufacturers. A small distinction for some, but a clear distinction nonetheless.

Despite this, the Lloyds mats are of exceptionally good quality, perhaps second only to, if not the equal of, the Techquipment mats which are actually OEM supply.
