A professional entrance mat like rubber walk off mats is available with several properties, thicknesses, and materials. To help you in your choice, here are the advantages of each product:
- To Remove Dirt
The entrance to a public building is the place that leaves the first impression on visitors. To ensure the cleanliness of your premises and convey a neat image, a dirt-resistant entrance mat is an ideal solution. Indeed, according to the ISSA (the International Association of Sanitary Supplies), between 70 to 80% of dust and dirt found in public entrances comes from outside and spreads on the floors. An entrance mat helps to retain shoe dirt as much as possible and increases the lifespan of your rugs and carpets, especially in public buildings with heavy traffic.
- To Prevent The Risk Of Slipping
During inclement weather, the floors become damp and wet and present an increased risk of slipping. To prevent falls and ensure the safety of visitors, the installation of a non-slip mat is essential. This type of product is specially designed with a scraping effect to prevent dirt, debris, and moisture from shoes from entering the premises. In addition, it keeps a dry and clean surface thanks to a draining system that evacuates liquids. Extremely resistant, it adapts perfectly to public buildings with heavy traffic.
- To Reinforce Your Brand
Beyond its practicality, a professional entrance mat also has an aesthetic advantage. To combine decoration and cleanliness, it is possible to install a customizable carpet with an image, a text (slogan, welcome or prevention message, etc.), or your company’s logo. A real marketing asset, as most visitors will look at the ground before entering your premises.
- To Resist The Spread Of Fire
In a public building, the entrance is also the main exit. In the event of fires, it is this which is then used. This is why it is interesting to install a fireproof aluminum mat entry system designed to resist heat and the spread of fire.
