Floor Mat Buying Guides

How to Use These Buying Guides

Choosing a floor mat starts with three questions: where the mat will lie, what it has to stop (dirt, water, oil, fatigue or slips) and how much traffic it will see. The guides below are grouped by those jobs, so facility managers, architects, contractors and distributors can go straight to the area of the building they are specifying. Each guide explains the constructions, materials and sizes that work, and links to the matching Clean Power products.

If you already know the area, you can also start from our floor mat solutions by industry and performance, or browse the full product range. For project quotations, send us your floor plan and traffic level and our team will recommend a matting system.

Entrance and Outdoor Mats

A building entrance needs a scraper zone outside, a scraper-wiper zone in the vestibule and a wiper zone inside. These guides explain how to size each zone and when an aluminum entrance mat system is worth the investment.

Anti-Fatigue and Industrial Mats

Standing workstations, production lines and workshops need mats that cushion, resist oil and stay put. See also our anti-fatigue mats and the standing comfort solution.

Slip Safety and Wet Areas

Pool decks, changing rooms, kitchens and wash-down areas need drainage and slip resistance first. Related: wet area safety and slip safety solutions.

Stair Treads

Stairs are where many slips happen. Compare materials and nosing options, then browse our stair treads.

Materials and Custom Mats

Material decides durability, weight and environmental profile; customization decides branding. Our materials overview and custom logo mats pages give the full specifications.
