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.
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?
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 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.
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.
