Did you know that hygiene mats are an indispensable element in the prevention of accidents? In 2023, 91 fatalities were recorded due to injuries following a slip. How many of them could have been avoided with such a mat?
When we think of retail safety systems, we often forget the importance of walk-off mats, both to prevent slippage and to keep germs and dirt out of the working environment.
Why is it so important to have walk-off and hygiene mats?
The data underlines the importance of implementing preventive measures, such as the installation of quality doormats at entrances to establishments and workspaces, to reduce the risk of slippage in the working environment.
At Carttec we have developed the ultimate carpet, perfect for both indoor and outdoor use, with a strong structure that reinforces the use of high quality materials.
Our walk-off and hygiene mats:
- Prevent dirt as they retain dust, mud and moisture.
- Reduce the risk of slippage by keeping the entrance floor dry.
- Have resistant materials to maintain long-term efficiency.
- Can be customised to reinforce the company’s visual identity.
According to EFSA, it takes 6-10 steps to remove 80-90% of dirt and moisture. Our mats can be tailored to fit the exact size of the opening, making them the ideal solution to reduce the risk of accidents. We recommend their installation in high traffic areas of supermarkets, shopping centres, hotels, banks, airports, offices, etc.
If installing our walk-off and hygiene mats helps to prevent accidents in the workplace, why not do it today?
