COVER STORY
dirt and moisture in 1m² of matting, compared to traditional textile mats.
A CLEAN ADVANTAGE With an efficient mat system in
place, building cleaning costs can be reduced significantly, as less dirt and moisture enter the building. Designed specifically for implementing the three-part entryway system, the Obex® complete range from Milliken offers a further cost advantage as it stands up to heavy wear and tear and can often last the building’s lifetime if maintained as per manufacturer’s recommendations. The modular tile range is suitable for indoor and outdoor installations and offers contractors better cost-in-use in public spaces than other mat systems. The modular tile design means that it is simple to install and replace if damage should occur, and small areas can be replaced easily and cost-effectively with minimum disruption.
Mats and runners from the Atrium Plus™ range are popular for reception and circulation areas as they are suitable for heavy traffic of up to 5,000 people per day. The long-lasting nitrile rubbing backing also makes the mat easy to install on carpeted surfaces to provide floor stability and border resistance. As well as the functional advantages of the range, contemporary colours, such as Sand and Volcano, can also help improve the visual aspect of the entryway.
TAKE THE LEAD To meet the rigorous functional
specifications of an entryway mat in a heavy traffic area, the Milliken Obex® range is suitable for building contractors and specifiers looking to create a great first impression in public spaces. The commonly used aluminium rigid bar system is aesthetically uninspiring and has low functionality, particularly in public spaces such as airports and
shopping centres where there is a high volume of wheeled traffic. The resulting noise from luggage and health and safety risks can be reduced by selecting Forma™ 16C and Prior™ 16C, which offer an attractive alternative that minimises noise levels and trip hazards. The combination of Forma and Prior modular tiles has a closed construction for easy and frequent maintenance and the 16mm thickness is well suited to high volume of heavy traffic.
Milliken’s mat and runners are available in a number of sizes and colours. The team of experts can help you make that first impression count.
