Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats: The Ultimate Solution for Clean and Safe Warehouses

Why Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats Are Essential for Your Facility

If you have forklift trucks moving in and out of your warehouse or facility frequently throughout the day, the wheels are likely to be bringing in dirt and water from outside, especially during the winter months or on rainy days. This constant influx of dirt and moisture not only affects the cleanliness of your warehouse but also increases the risk of slip and fall accidents, creating a hazardous work environment.

Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats are designed to address this problem effectively. Instead of wiping footwear, they scrape and wipe the wheels of forklifts, preventing dirt and water from being tracked into your building. By implementing these mats, you significantly reduce maintenance efforts and costs while ensuring a safer and cleaner workspace. 

• Durable - Reinforced rubber nubs, backing, and fabric top are designed to withstand forklift traffic up to 14,000 pounds
• Clean and Dry - Bi-level surface removes dirt and moisture from wheels and trap it to minimize tracking
• Easy to Install - Mats are easy to install and scalable for large applications; aggressive adhesive taping system (sold separately) keeps tiles from moving
• Eco-Friendly - PET fabric (24 ounces/yard²) is made from at least 90% recycled content reclaimed from plastic, and SBR rubber backing contains 20% recycled rubber from car tires
  
• WaterHog Forklift mats should be installed with double-sided tape (not included)

 

The Unique Benefits of Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats

1. Advanced Dirt and Moisture Control

Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats are specifically engineered to trap dirt, dust, and moisture from forklift wheels. Their unique surface structure helps in efficiently removing debris, ensuring that your warehouse remains clean, even in the harshest weather conditions.

2. Heavy-Duty Durability

Warehouses and industrial facilities experience high traffic and need long-lasting solutions. These mats are built with durable materials that withstand the constant weight and movement of forklifts and pallet trucks. The crush-proof rubber nubs ensure longevity, even in high-use areas.

3. Fast-Drying and Slip-Resistant Design

Unlike conventional mats that can become waterlogged, Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats dry quickly, reducing the risk of slips and falls. Their heavy-duty rubber backing prevents them from shifting, offering a stable and secure flooring solution.

4. Easy and Quick Installation

Installing traditional forklift mats can be time-consuming, often requiring gluing that needs days to cure. Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats come in modular tiles (120 x 172 cm each), making them quick and easy to install. With the use of industrial-strength double-sided tape, they can be secured in just 10 minutes, making them an ideal choice for busy warehouses where downtime is minimal.

How Do You Install Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats?

Installation is straightforward and hassle-free, allowing businesses to quickly enhance their workspace. Follow these simple steps:

1. Clean the Floor: Ensure that the area where the mats will be installed is clean and dry for optimal adhesion.

2. Apply Double-Sided Tape: Use industrial-strength double-sided tape around all four edges of the mat and in a diagonal cross shape through the middle.

3. Place and Secure Mats: Align the modular tiles carefully, press firmly onto the taped surface, and smooth out any wrinkles or air pockets.

4. Ready for Use: Unlike glued mats, Waterhog Modular Forklift Mats are ready to be driven over immediately after installation.
