COMMERCIAL ENTRANCE SOLUTIONS
Heavy-Duty Non-Slip
Rubber Runner Matting
Professional entrance and corridor safety matting engineered for high-traffic commercial environments
First Line of Defence Against Workplace Slips & Contamination
In commercial environments where foot traffic introduces moisture, dirt, and debris, entrance matting is not optional—it's essential safety infrastructure. Our heavy-duty rubber runner delivers proven slip resistance whilst protecting interior floors from contamination and premature wear.
Specified by facilities managers, health & safety officers, and property managers across retail, hospitality, healthcare, and corporate sectors for measurable risk reduction and operational cost savings.

⚠️ Health, Safety & Risk Management
Engineered to support compliance with Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, and Occupiers' Liability Act 1957. High-traction entrance matting demonstrably reduces slip incidents during wet weather - critical evidence for risk assessments and duty of care documentation.
Insurance & Liability: Proper entrance matting demonstrates reasonable precautions against foreseeable slip hazards - supports public liability insurance requirements and reduces claims exposure.
Installation & Maintenance
Installation Options
Loose-Lay: Rubber weight provides stability for temporary or seasonal installations - ideal for rental properties or frequently reconfigured spaces.
Adhesive-Fix: Permanent bonding using contact adhesive or double-sided tape for high-traffic areas requiring maximum stability and trip hazard elimination.
Maintenance Protocol
Daily: Vacuum or sweep to remove loose debris. Spot-clean spills with damp cloth.
Weekly: Hose down or pressure wash (outdoor installations). Mop with neutral detergent (indoor use).
Periodic: Deep clean with commercial floor cleaner. The non-porous rubber surface resists staining and odour retention - maintains professional appearance with minimal intervention.

Frequently Asked Questions
What width options are available?
Contact our team for available runner widths and custom cutting options. We can advise on coverage calculations based on your entrance dimensions and traffic patterns.
Do I need to fix it down?
For most applications, the rubber weight provides sufficient stability for loose-lay installation. For very high-traffic areas or where trip hazard elimination is critical, we recommend adhesive fixing or perimeter edging.
Can this be used outdoors?
Yes. The vulcanised rubber construction withstands UV exposure, temperature fluctuations, and wet weather. Suitable for covered and uncovered entrance areas, though covered installations extend service life.
How do I clean it?
Daily vacuuming or sweeping removes loose debris. Weekly hosing or mopping with neutral detergent maintains appearance. The non-porous surface resists staining and dries quickly.
What's the expected lifespan?
8-12 years in high-traffic commercial environments with proper maintenance. Lifespan depends on foot traffic volume, maintenance regime, and environmental exposure.
Does this meet building regulations?
The high-traction surface supports compliance with workplace safety regulations and duty of care obligations. Suitable for inclusion in risk assessments, method statements, and HSE documentation as a slip prevention control measure.
