Why You Should Consider Floor Mat Rental Instead of Purchasing Floor Mats

So you’ve made the shift: commercial floor mats are indeed for you. Congratulations! There is little to no doubt about the convenience and efficiency that the right commercial floor mats can do for your facility. For one, floor cleaning and maintenance will be so much easier with floor mats than without.

There is just one more question left to be answered: should you rent or buy floor mats for your facility? We’ve listed the reasons why floor mat rental might be the best option for you.

Renting Mats for the Winter Months

With winter just around the corner, it’s time to think about how to best protect your floors from the  mud, and dirt that’s bound to get left behind by shoes and boots. In a busy business, the entranceway can quickly become a mess. Hundreds of people may be passing over your floors everyday. What better way to safeguard your floors than a floor mat?

Importance of Mats

Floor mats are handy for more than just being pretty. They’ll protect your floors from dirt and mud and increase their longevity as a result. Clean floors are better for morale and contribute to a positive living or work environment. Your floor’s original sheen and quality can be preserved for years to come. Mud and melting snow can lead to some rather slippery areas. Floor mats will help reduce the chance of trips and falls, which is very important if you’re expecting a lot of foot traffic.

Why Rent Mats?

Why rent floor mats from us? Buying your own floor mats means having to maintain them on a regular basis. You’ll need to inspect, remove, clean, and replace them periodically, a job that can quickly start eating up time as winter approaches. Renting mats from us is simple and hassle free, making them a much more appealing option. In addition, high quality mats are always guaranteed so you won’t have to worry about them wearing out on you.

Replacement Mats

The best part of renting mats from us? We’ll take care of replacing old dirty mats with fresh clean ones! All you have to do is sit back and watch as our mats protect your floors and keep them in pristine condition for future use.

The Occupational Health and Safety administration estimates slips, trips and falls cause nearly 700 fatalities per year and many more injuries. Messy winter weather can easily contribute to a dangerous situation when missing friction on the floor leads to a painful slip. The National Floor Safety Institute [NFSI] devised standards for floor mat manufacturers to make mats more reliable and safer for customers across the country.

To prevent slip and falls effectively, the standard recommends that mats have a “high-traction backing”. This is currently the only nationally recognized standard by which to measure the slip-resistant qualities of floor mat backing. It was developed because mats that do not have a high-traction backing are more prone to movement, which in turn can increase the risk of movement, buckling and curling.

At Cleantex, we identify these potential risks and partner with the best mat manufacturers to provide you with a high-quality product that provides peace of mind to you and anyone who enters your facility.

Why You Should Consider Floor Mat Rental

There are a couple of fool-proof reasons why renting is the best way to go about your commercial floor matting needs. Here are some of them:

• Cost. Compared to buying floor mats, floor mat rental will cost you less in upfront costs. With renting, you only have to pay for the items that you need for a given period, and don’t have to shell out a large amount at once, making the impact on your overhead generally more tolerable.  
• Maintenance. Renting your commercial floor mats means that the cleaning and maintenance of your facility’s floor mats are handled by certified professionals. This means better results with minimum effort required from you or your employees!
• Quality Product Selection. Commercial floor mat rentals open you to endless product possibilities. Not only do commercial floor mat service companies offer a wider selection of products, but they also allow you versatile options so you are not stuck with the exact same mat for years on end!   
• Customer Support. Renting your floor mats means getting access to customer support who will take care of your floor mats when you need them. Need emergency cleaning? They’ve got you! Need to replace your current mat? They can do that for you, too! Having a rental service partner means having someone who will make sure your floor mats are up to par with standards and meeting your needs and expectations. And if they’re not, you’ll know that someone will not stop working until you are completely satisfied.
