an operationally successful building. Every member of staff, visitor or client tends to come through the front door of a building, collectively bringing with them significant amounts of dirt and moisture, albeit sometimes hard to see with the human eye. Entrance matting is the unsung hero in maintaining the appearance of the rest of the building, which is incredibly important in the increasingly clean and minimalist environments in which we live and work. Entrance matting also plays a huge role in keeping floor surfaces safe.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>A fresh look at entrance matting specifications<\/h3>\n<p>Our new CPD on specifying entrance systems brings together our experience in the marketplace over the past ten years. We uncover some of the lesser-known considerations that every specifier should consider when selecting a matting solution for their next project.<\/p>\n<p>Entrance matting doesn\u2019t have to be dull, either. Many systems can be improved with simple design techniques and a little imagination.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Key takeaways<\/h3>\n<p>We hope that our CPD not only illuminates delegates to the benefits of entrance matting but will also elevate your understanding of best design practices and, more importantly, how to ensure compliance with building regulations. Learn more about the categories of entrance mat systems and where to use them. From heavy-duty aluminum systems designed for the highest footfall buildings in transport and retail to lightweight entrance carpet solutions designed for less demanding environments in education and leisure.<\/p>\n<p>Have you every wondered why there are so many varieties of entrance matting available \u2013 surely they all perform the same function? We answer questions like this in more depth by walking through each product type and their common applications.<\/p>\n<p>As a UK &amp; South African based manufacturer and specialist in entrance matting we have an advantageous position to provide clear, knowledgeable guidance on this subject. Also, as part of the globally successful COBA International group of companies, we aim to provide a superior level of quality and service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Request
