Entrance flooring is fundamental to modern building design: An effective entrance system can stop up to 94% of dirt and moisture being walked into a building, minimising maintenance costs, protecting the interior flooring and preventing slips.

Entrance flooring systems have a critical safety role to play. Slips, trips and falls made up more than half of all reported major injuries in 2012/2013 (source: RIDDOR) causing suffering and financial loss for individuals, companies and society at large. Wet and dry soiling can both create slip hazards but by taking sensible decisions over flooring surfaces and installing effective entrance matting, the potential for slipping can be dramatically reduced.

A well designed entrance flooring system will prevent dirt and moisture from being tracked in and thereby prolong the life of interior flooring and reduce cleaning, repair and overall maintenance costs.

Health and Safety legislation and the Equality Act impose a duty of care on those who own and manage public buildings to prevent interior floor surfaces from becoming hazardous. Loose lay mats and coir are advised against.
