What are the key benefits of entrance matting for your building?
Enhanced Safety
A good entrance mat is extremely effective in trapping dirt and moisture, especially in areas of the building with high-traffic entrances, be it from footwear or wheeled traffic. As a result, this can help significantly reduce the risk of slips and falls upon entering commercial properties as it will provide a safe walkway throughout your building. Statistics by the HSE show that slipping and tripping is the single most common cause of major injuries in UK workplaces, hence they strongly recommend implementing solutions to keep the floor as clean and dry as possible.
Our custom heavy-duty entrance mat offers a functional yet stylish solution to this, with its superior dirt and moisture control features ensuring your commercial environments are clean and dry.
Improved cleanliness and lowered maintenance costs
Entrance matting acts as the first line of defence against any dirt, debris and moisture entering your building. By using effective entrance matting options, footwear and wheeled devices that come through will be cleaned. This will not only help to keep your interior cleaner but also reduce the frequency and costs of cleaning your internal flooring, lowering overall maintenance costs. Additionally, it can potentially reduce liability and insurance costs related to slip accidents.
We recommend considering large entrance mat options for buildings with higher footfall levels, as it will cater to a larger volume of individuals bringing in contaminants from their footwear. Essentially, the more steps that are placed on the mat, the more chance the mat has of removing and holding onto dirt and moisture.
Interior floor protection
Entrance matting helps protect your interior floors by catching abrasive particles, such as sand and grit that are trapped in footwear, stopping them from being transferred to your buildingโs flooring. Whether your interior flooring is carpet, wood or tile, it can suffer from the wear and tear of constant foot traffic. By opting to implement an entrance mat, it will greatly aid in preserving the state of your interior floors for the long run.
For a product that is best suited for this purpose, we recommend our Aqua Barrier heavy duty entrance mat, which is extremely durable and remains highly effective even in the most demanding environments.
