Dirt-trapping mat

What are the advantages of using a dirt-repellent mat?

Anti-dirt-repellent mats are the first line of defense in keeping dirt and debris out of buildings. They improve air quality, reduce noise resonance, extend floor life and cut maintenance costs.

Dirt-repellent mats also facilitate access for people with reduced mobility, while ensuring the safety of all users (avoiding falls, slips, etc.). But they also contribute to the cleanliness and hygiene of your premises, while enhancing your image, since the entrance is the first impression your customers will have of your establishment.

To cut a long story short, a dirt-repellent mat must meet 3 main criteria:

  • attractive design
  • resistance to traffic
  • excellent functionality

How do I choose a dirt-repellent mat?

When choosing an antisoiling mat, there are a few criteria to consider:

Your environment:

  • Humid environment: you should opt for an absorbent or non-slip anti-fouling mat to prevent moisture from penetrating your premises.
  • Dry environment: you should opt for a scraping mat that will catch all the debris and dust found under the soles of your customers' shoes.

Type of traffic :

  • Up to 250 passages/day: standard traffic mats .
  • Up to 500 passages/day: heavy traffic mats.
  • Over 500 passages/day: very heavy traffic mats.

What are the 3 ranges of dirt-repellent mats?

There are 3 ranges of dirt-repellent mats:

  • Scraping mats : Scraper mats have dry, hard fibers for effective scraping of shoe soles. Used in dry, dusty environments.

  • Absorbent mats: Absorbent mats absorb moisture brought in by passers-by. Depending on the mat, they can absorb 3 to 6 L of water per m2, and are known as water-barrier mats.

  • Non-slip mats: Anti-slip mats also have a scraping function, preventing dirt from entering the premises. However, they have one more function than scraping mats: they have anti-slip properties. These mats are most often used outdoors.
