There is little point in creating a striking building design if its finer points are masked by the obligatory requirements for hygiene, safety and practicality, particularly on entry and exit routes. So something that looks good, works efficiently but doesn’t overpower an entrance scenario is vital.

But not all entrance matting is the same and selecting the ideal product means considering many issues – from the building’s location, the level and type of traffic to the local weather. It’s also essential to determine precisely the dirt removal and water-trapping effectiveness of the chosen entrance matting, the amount, pattern and colour as well as its potential impact on building maintenance.

That’s why you need to know more about 3M™ Nomad™ Aqua Plus Entrance Matting. This innovative drop-down entrance matting features a unique triple layer to stop dirt and moisture in its tracks.

It features a water draining fleece securely bonded to the top textile with a permeable and water resistant adhesive layer – an inimitable 3D void structure that increases absorbency by up to 50%, depending on product reference, to minimise retracking.

While its exclusive dual fibre top layer utilises larger texturised coarse fibres to remove dirt and smaller fine fibres to absorb excess water. What’s more with over 50% reduction in PVC, the impervious, non-slip, recyclable backing prevents the release of dampness after absorbing water and it clings to the ground which means it cannot be lifted up by foot traffic, preventing friction on floors from ground-in-dirt that otherwise could fall through.

Discover why 3M Nomad Aqua Plus Entrance Matting is an innovative first step towards a cleaner, safer building.
