Hotels

The large entrances of hotels, especially with the expansive walkways and porches provide an excellent area for stopping dust and dirt entering the buildings. The near monopoly of coil type products (Fall Thru) for this purpose in Asian hotels is now being repeated in America and certain European countries especially Holland and Italy.

The trend will almost certainly continue to grow in other countries due to the vast reduction in cleaning costs when using these products, and also the improvement to the life and appearance of existing flooring.

Front Entrance Areas
To take advantage of the cleaning properties of the matting solutions, all private exterior walkways should be covered by Fall Thru LU 12mm. Recessed porch areas are best served by using Fall Thru Extra Duty 15mm which provides a deeper, firmer clean to hide any remaining dust particles from view, improving the image of the hotel.

Entrance wells should be fitted with Fall Thru Extra Duty Plus 18mm which should be flush with the walls of the well Inside the doors and around the well, in what is known as 'the cleaning zone', we recommend installing Defender to a distance of at least 180cm (6') from the edge of the entrance well to complete the 'complete dust control entrance system'.

Rear Entrance Areas
We recommend marble professional for all rear entrance areas. Marble professional are good inexpensive mats, which allow them to be changed at regular intervals For the exterior of buildings, you can either use any Fall Thru left over from the front, or you can also use Trap mats.

Hotel Foyer
If the centre of the foyer requires a ramped centrepiece we suggest Defender or Stay Put, or for directional mats or mats with your logo we suggest Logomats or Design mats.

Reception Areas
Runners are necessary for the front of the reception areas to give a finished front desk appearance. These mats are available in three sizes and are available in standard mat qualities or Design runners.
Our anti-fatigue runners such as Tireless are ideal for use behind the reception area to control dust on staff shoes; Deskstop, Deskstop Extra and Deskstop Shield for underneath chairs.

Lifts
The area around the lift is a natural high traffic point. Most of the employees and guests must pass this point. The lift area, and the lifts themselves, are an ideal point to stop dirt circulating and this is where efficient cleaning products, can have maximum effect. Loose laid internal dust control mats, or a clean zone installation are also very effective in this position. For installations around lifts, we recommend Scraper, or for loose laid mats we recommend Directional mats, Design mats or Décor.

Bars
Bars are an excellent area for inventive Logo mats or Design mats to create that all, important atmosphere.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms
On a smooth floor or corridors we recommend cherry mats, or mountain twist. For bathrooms/showers two types of mat are available, either bath mats, or suction rubber mats.

Restaurants and Kitchen Areas
In hotel restaurants, the addition of Logomats can create an image of a different environment. The area between the kitchen and the restaurant is very problematic, as the normal oils used in the kitchen, must not be allowed to spread into the Hotel. The problems of restaurant hygiene, potentially unpleasant aromas and general difficulty of maintaining carpets when oil or grease gets onto the floor covering, is stopped by the use and maintenance of matting. Ringo interlocking tiles can contain most spillages within the kitchen and are odour and chemical resistant. Stay put mats can then be used in connecting areas.
