Warehouse and Manufacturing Issues

High volumes of machinery movements and foot-traffic in and out of your premises pose a continual threat to cleanliness, with 85% of dirt and moisture in a building coming in on the soles of shoes and machinery.

Without good quality, open structure entrance matting, very little of this dirt and moisture will be stopped at the entrance; this is because basic matting quickly becomes ineffective as the dirt and moisture simply sits on top, and this is then tracked into your premises by the next visitor, employee or piece of machinery.

With the use of heavy forklifts and trolleys, the matting system must also have high weight-bearing capabilities; GEGGUS Top Clean Objekt and Top Clean High systems have both been designed specifically to meet the demands of these high load-bearing applications.

Here are just some of the knock-on effects of having dirt and moisture in your premises:
