Entrance Matting for Education

Specifying entrance matting for education facilities can often be challenging, due to budget constraints, high levels of footfall, and increased needs for safety underfoot. The budget doesn’t have to cause project limitations. There are more budget-conscious options available to keep costs low, while still maintaining high performance and visual aesthetics.

Entrance matting for schools needs to be able to cope with peaks in traffic at the start and end of the day. Foot traffic levels are usually medium to high from students, teachers, and visitors. Key factors to consider are to protect internal floor coverings, reduce slip hazards and reduce cleaning costs.

Due to schools having multiple entrances, it is important to prioritise more budget on higher traffic areas. This will limit slip accidents, prevent excessive wear on internal floor coverings and help to reduce cleaning costs. It’s important to consider areas that might be subjected to muddy shoes or studded sports footwear, specification requirements will differ in these locations.

Schools, colleges, and universities need to create appealing and inviting entrances for existing and prospective students. Implementing logos, messaging or specific colours with entrance matting inserts, is a great way to complement the existing surroundings.
