Choosing a Floortex Mat

HOW TO PICK THE RIGHT MAT FOR YOUR NEEDS
Floortex mats are highly cost-effective solutions for the protection of expensive floor coverings such as carpets, real wood and laminated floors. They will save floors from loss of appearance, wear and damage. Floortex offers a wide selection of shapes and sizes to suit your requirements.

Our mats have an embossed upper surface and are usually clear (unless stated) so that the appearance of the underlying floor covering remains visible.

BEFORE WE START ...
A quick look at the typical home or office below shows the many potential applications of Floortex products, each one perfectly preserving the condition of the surface it covers.

Anti slip mat ANTI SLIP BACKING
Use on high-gloss floors, eg polished wood, to prevent slippage.

STEP FOUR - CHOOSE A SUITABLE MATERIAL
Floortex manufacture mats in durable, clear polycarbonate and cost-effective PVC. Through our Ecotex brand we now produce mats that are manufactured from 100% recycled post-consumer PET .

Original Floortex Polycarbonate ORIGINAL FLOORTEX POLYCARBONATE
Durable, clear, odourless - this material is used in the manufacture of bullet-proof glass and will give longlife protection for your flooring. Original Floortex Polycarbonate is used to produce the Ultimat range.
Floortex PVC PVC
The new Floortex formulation for PVC means that our vinyl mats are now clearer than ever. They share the same design, structure and finish as our polycarbonate range and is used in the production of our Valuemat and Advantagemant ranges.
Ecotex PET
100% Recycled Post-Consumer PET
The Ecotex Revolutionmat is our ecologically friendly floor-protection solution. The material used is made from recycled plastic drinks bottles and provides durable protection for hard floors.
Our Enhanced Polymer solution for carpet application mats contains up to 50% recycled content.


STEP FIVE - CHOOSE HOW YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR MATS PACKAGED
We can package your mat(s) in cartons, polybags or bulk depending on your individual requirements ... eg if you are an end user ordering from a retail website you will probably want a single mat shipped in a cardboard carton. If you are a wholesaler or dealer then a bulk packed pallet will be more appropriate.

 


Packing Notes

Advantagemat PVC and Ecotex Revolutionmat hard floor mats supplied rolled of not stored in flat form should be given a minimum of 72 hours in a warm environment to retain their original flat form.

Ultimat Polycarbonate and Ecotex Revolutionmat carpet gripper mats supplied in rolls will revert immediately to their flat state with restraining straps are removed. This is due to the material's unique memory characteristics. Extreme care should be taken when releasing or cutting restraining straps.
