School Mats

School, colleges and universities are demanding environments due to their high foot fall and the frequency of passes as children and students make their way from class to class. Keeping dirt outside the school is crucial to prevent it being tracked all around the building. Our range of heavy duty school entrance mats are highly effective at removing and, crucially, holding onto dirt and water. They are easy to clean to keep your school entrances clean and safe.

School Mats: Safety, Hygiene & Floor Protection for Educational Environments

Schools present a unique set of matting challenges. This includes high footfall, wet and muddy entrances, changing rooms, kitchens, sports areas, and the need to accommodate wheelchair users and younger children safely. At Trusted Mats, we supply a comprehensive range of school mats covering every area of the school environment, from entrance matting and logo mats to kitchen mats, play ground safety matting, and floor protection for exams and events.

What Are the Benefits of Using Mats in Schools?

  • Reduced Cleaning Costs: Entrance mats capture dirt and moisture from footwear before it is tracked through the school building, significantly reducing the frequency and cost of cleaning.
  • Slip & Fall Prevention: Anti-slip surfaces at entrances, in changing rooms, and around wet areas help protect pupils, staff, and visitors from one of the most common causes of school injury.
  • Floor Protection: Mats protect floors and carpets from the wear and damage caused by heavy foot traffic, furniture, and equipment.
  • Hygiene: Anti-microbial matting in changing rooms and wet areas helps maintain a cleaner, more hygienic environment for pupils.
  • Welcoming Environment: Logo mats and well-presented entrance matting create a positive first impression for pupils, staff, and prospective parents.

What Are the Best Entrance Mats for Schools?

School entrance mats need to be highly durable, effective at removing dirt and moisture, and safe for all users including wheelchair users. We recommend a two  or three stage approach for maximum effectiveness:

External Entrance Mats

A robust external mat such as a Rubber Ramp Mat tackles heavy mud and dirt from footwear before pupils and staff even enter the building, reducing the volume of debris tracked inside.

Internal Entrance Mats

Bi-level mats such as Aqua Barrier are highly effective at scraping and absorbing remaining dirt and moisture from footwear at the internal threshold. For a custom-sized solution, rubber-backed mats such as Shades Custom Heavy Duty Mats are available in a wide range of sizes and colours to complement your school’s décor.

Finishing Entrance Mat

The Shades Custom Heavy Duty mat is perfect for removing finer dirt and dust particles and particularly great placed in reception areas and hallways.

Are School Entrance Mats Wheelchair Friendly?

The majority of mats in our school range are suitable for wheelchair users, featuring flat, level surfaces with ramped edges for easy transition. We recommend avoiding coir matting in school entrances, as this can present difficulties for wheelchair users and may affect compliance with the Equality Act 2010.

What Other Types of School Mat Are Available?

Beyond entrance matting, schools have a wide variety of specialist matting needs across different areas of the building and grounds.

School Logo Mats

Custom logo mats displaying your school’s branding or crest can be placed at the main entrance or reception area to create a welcoming, professional environment that reinforces school identity for pupils, staff, and visiting parents.

Toilets & Changing Rooms

Anti-slip mats are essential in school toilets and changing rooms, where wet floors present a significant slip risk. Roll matting such as Floorline and Heronrib is ideal for changing room areas, providing barefoot comfort and anti-microbial properties for improved hygiene and safety.

School Kitchens & Canteens

Anti-slip and anti-fatigue mats are ideal for busy school kitchens and canteens, providing a safer surface for kitchen staff and reducing fatigue during long periods of standing.

Sports Huts & Outdoor Areas

Mats outside sports huts need to withstand heavy mud, sports studs, and outdoor conditions while remaining easy to clean. Rubber Ramp Mats are a popular and effective choice for this application.

Which Mats Are Best for Exams, Assemblies & School Events?

Protecting polished hall and gymnasium floors during exams, assemblies, and school events is a common challenge. Rubber roll matting such as the Premium Low Odour Amoeba, is the ideal solution, it can be quickly rolled out to cover large floor areas, protecting the surface from the damage caused by table and chair legs, and rolled back up for compact storage when not in use.

Which Mats Are Suitable for Outdoor Play Areas?

Play Area Honeycomb Safety Matting provides a safe, impact-absorbing surface for outdoor play areas. The honeycomb rubber design absorbs the shock of running, jumping, and falling, reducing the risk of injury. The textured surface maintains grip even in wet weather. The matting is lightweight, easy to install, and also helps protect grass areas from becoming muddy and worn in high-use zones.
