THE SITUATION
What makes the floor slippery?
Water, spills and process residues can affect footing at workstations and along walking routes. Open-grid matting lets liquids pass through while providing a textured walking or standing surface. Address the source of spills and maintain the floor beneath the mat.
FIND THE RIGHT APPROACH
Match the matting to the work conditions.
Compare water exposure, traffic, standing work and food-processing residues. Confirm suitability for your floor, cleaning routine and workplace requirements.
