The external dirt trap mat is the first zone where dirt and moisture are removed from footwear. Which effectively helps to keep the interior of the building clean. However, not all doormats are suitable for outdoor use.
Many conventional entrance mats are unlikely to be up to the high demands of an outdoor dirt trap and trap mat. There is no doubt that a doormat, which is exposed to weather conditions at any time of the year, should above all be solid and durable. Perforated rubber mats (with oval through holes) are a classic solution.
They provide good drainage and water drainage, are highly weather and temperature resistant, but are also very easy to use when it comes to cleaning and maintenance. However, in addition to the classic rubber mats, there are other rubber and PVC mats that are just as good for outdoor use.
Not everyone will like rubber mats in terms of appearance.
There are also dirt-catching mats that are suitable for outdoor use, but are not quite as rustic in appearance. A mat made of coir is a classic here, but mats with a layer of PVC or polypropylene also work well outside. The right entrance mat system plays a key role when it comes to protecting the floors inside the building.
Research shows that over 50% of all reported accidents in 2010/2011 (source: RIDDOR) are caused by slips, trips and falls. These events not only cause additional costs for companies and employees, but also cause suffering and pain for people.
Entrance mats can significantly reduce the risk. A well-designed system of entrance mats protects against the excess of dirt and moisture raised on the shoes and wheels from the outside, and thus extends the life of the floors and reduces the costs of floor maintenance.
