The design and development of floor mats have undergone much investigation over the years. These days, mats are made for particular purposes. For instance, high traffic locations like retail stores require tough and durable mats; office buildings require attractive carpeted mats that collect soil transported into the facility and industrial facilities require mats for staff safety and anti-fatigue purposes.
Rubber or carpet are the two most used materials for floor mats. These mats, however, are now being made from modern materials including vinyl, vulcanised rubber, and textured, slip-resistant nylon. Additionally, ‘green’ carpets composed of 15% recycled tyres and 100% post-consumer fibre from beverage bottles are available for purchase. But with so much choice, what should you be looking for? What are the most popular floor mats at this moment in time?
Supercoir Coconut Matting
Supercoir Coconut Matting is the best option for durable, heavy-duty coir matting that can be used in a number of situations. Most commonly, as an entry mat or a doormat, designed for frequent use. This environmentally friendly coconut matting, which can be trimmed to size, contains coarse fibres that soak up dirt, making it ideal for use as coir entrance matting and other areas that will see a lot of foot traffic. The high-quality twisted fibres in the coir matting roll keep it from developing a flattened, ‘worn’ appearance, which keeps it looking new for a long time.

Our value all-rubber scraper entrance mats are becoming increasingly popular.
