Continuous Professional Development with ARCA

Since 1995, ARCA Unlimited Architects (Pty) Ltd has delivered inspiring architectural solutions across Africa. Their ability to adapt to every project’s scale and complexity makes them a trusted partner in design. At COBA, we share the same philosophy: we don’t just supply mats—we create solutions that protect people, enhance spaces, and deliver long-term value. In August, we partnered with ARCA to host a Continuous Professional Development (CPD) presentation, equipping architects with essential knowledge about the importance of entrance matting and other workplace matting solutions.

Engaging, Informative & Interactive

We guided architects through the five key benefits of correct entrance matting specification, covering:

  • The risks of incorrect specification
  • Entrance matting ranges: Aluminium, Interlocking, Trio, Alba, Berber Point, Graphic Inlay Mats
  • Correct zoning for Zones 1–3
  • The 2.5m minimum walk-off requirement for accessibility and cleanliness
  • Foot traffic calculations for accurate planning

To make learning engaging, we hosted interactive Q&A sessions and awarded prizes for correct answers—turning technical insights into memorable takeaways.

Showcasing the CAT Range

We introduced the audience to COBA’s CAT Range, designed for durability and versatility:

  • 18 profile options in 8 colours
  • 25-micron, heavy-duty aluminium floor trims with protective film
  • AT25 and AT35 T-profiles with base framing solutions

Beyond Entrance Matting – Safety at Work

COBA’s expertise goes far beyond entrance solutions. We provide workplace safety matting that enhances health, comfort, and performance in diverse environments:

  • Anti-fatigue mats that improve circulation and reduce strain
  • Durable flooring solutions for kitchens, gyms, schools, warehouses, and more
