Hospital and Healthcare Mats

Our mats for hospitals are designed to cope with the very busy nature of healthcare facilities. The sector has unique requirements requiring specialist mats that can cope with both foot and wheeled traffic. Anti-microbial mats help keep areas more hygienic by helping to stop bacteria spreading around the building. Tacky mats are ideal to help prevent cross contamination between areas to aid the fight against germs.

Hospital & Healthcare Mats: Hygiene, Safety & Comfort for Clinical Environments

In healthcare settings, maintaining hygiene and preventing the spread of bacteria and contaminants is a fundamental requirement. The right matting plays an active role in achieving this. At Trusted Mats, we supply a range of hospital and healthcare mats specifically selected for clinical environments.

What Role Do Mats Play in Healthcare Hygiene?

  • Anti-Microbial Protection: Mats treated with anti-bacterial agents inhibit the growth of bacteria, providing continuous hygiene protection between cleans.
  • Contamination Control: Tacky mats and entrance mats capture dirt and bacteria from the soles of shoes and the wheels of equipment at key entry points.
  • Cross-Contamination Reduction: Placing appropriate mats at the entrances to wards, surgical areas, and other controlled zones significantly reduces contamination.
  • Slip & Fall Prevention: Anti-slip surfaces and low-profile, wheelchair-friendly designs keep entrances and clinical areas safe for all users, including patients with limited mobility.

What Types of Healthcare Mats Are Available?

Anti-Microbial Mats

Anti-microbial mats are essential in any healthcare setting where hygiene standards are strictly regulated. These mats provide an additional layer of protection in wards, waiting rooms, pharmacies, care homes, and GP surgeries. Browse our Anti-Microbial Mats range for more.

Tacky / Sticky Mats

Tacky mats feature an adhesive surface that lifts dirt and bacteria from shoe soles and equipment wheels. Placed at the entrances to surgical areas, clean rooms, or wards, they provide a highly effective barrier against contamination, capturing what standard entrance mats cannot. Our Clean Step is a great choice, or browse our Sticky Tack Mats range for more.

Healthcare Entrance Mats

Entrance mats for healthcare facilities should feature a low-profile design to accommodate patients with limited mobility, walking difficulties, or wheelchairs. As well as effective dirt and moisture removal to reduce slip risk and prevent contaminants from entering the building. Our SentryRib Pro Entrance Matting is popular for hospital entrances that feature a well/recess. Alternatively you can browse our Entrance Mats range for more.

Anti-Fatigue Mats

Rubber anti-fatigue mats provide cushioning and support that reduces strain on the feet, legs, and back, creating a more comfortable working environment for staff in theatres, wards, and clinical areas and in turn reducing fatigue. Cushion Flow is the perfect anti-fatigue mat for healthcare environments, with the addition of an anti-microbial treatment. Browse our Anti-Fatigue Mats range for more.

Where Are Healthcare Mats Used?

Appropriate matting is required throughout a healthcare facility, not just at the main entrance. Key locations include:

  • Main Entrances & Reception Areas: Heavy-duty entrance mats capture dirt and moisture from high volumes of foot and wheelchair traffic, keeping reception areas clean and reducing slip risk.
  • Wards & Patient Areas: Anti-microbial mats help maintain hygiene in areas where vulnerable patients are present and bacterial transfer poses a direct risk to health.
  • Surgical & Clinical Areas: Tacky mats at entry points to theatres and procedure rooms prevent particle and microbial contamination from entering controlled environments.
  • Waiting Rooms & Canteens: Entrance and anti-microbial mats keep high-footfall public areas clean and safe for patients and visitors.
  • Pharmacies, Care Homes & GP Surgeries: Anti-microbial matting provides ongoing hygiene protection in smaller clinical settings where deep cleaning may be less frequent.

What Should Healthcare Entrance Mats Provide?

Entrance mats in healthcare environments must meet a higher standard than those in typical commercial settings, given the vulnerability of many users and the strict hygiene requirements of clinical facilities.

  • Low Profile Design: Minimal thickness at the edges to allow safe, easy transition for patients with walking difficulties, mobility aids, or wheelchairs.
  • Wheelchair-Friendly Surface: A smooth, firm surface that does not impede wheelchair movement. Avoid deep pile or uneven textures that can catch wheels.
  • Effective Dirt & Moisture Removal: High-performance dirt and moisture capture to reduce the volume of contaminants tracked into the facility from outside.
  • Anti-Slip Performance: Reliable grip underfoot for all users, including those with limited mobility. This is particularly important in wet weather when moisture is brought in from outside.
  • Easy to Clean: Mats in clinical environments must be straightforward to clean and maintain to the hygiene standards required by the facility.
