Entrance flooring is fundamental to modern building design. An effective entrance system can stop up to 95% of dirt and moisture being walked into a building, minimising maintenance costs, protecting the interior flooring and preventing slips.
Entrance flooring systems also have a critical safety role to play. Wet and dry soiling can both create slip hazards but by taking sensible decisions over flooring surfaces and installing effective entrance matting, the potential for slipping can be dramatically reduced.
If you really want to keep your building clean and safe, it’s not enough to throw down a mat at the door. Creating an effective entrance flooring system involves thinking about footfall and the number of people walking in and out in a given period – and applying that information in the design of the entrance area.
