Heated, under desk floor mats provide warmth and in cold climates and winter months. Winter Warmth Mat generates a radiant heat which creates an extremely comfortable even heat while reducing fatigue and stimulating circulation.

Even should the Winter Warmth Mat be left on, it assures safety and lower energy costs than space heaters. Ideal for people who spend long hours on their feet or in cold environments, including bank tellers, toll booth operators, machinists and any other users of space heaters.

Increased economy and safety! The timer accessory assures that never again will an owner or manager need to return to the office to make sure space heaters are turned off. It also provides on-off function so the mat does not have to be plugged/unplugged to control function.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that more than 25,000 residential fires every year are associated with the use of room (space) heaters. More than 300 persons die in these fires.

How to keep your floor mats from sliding around no matter what the foot traffic

Safety-Tape Holds Mats in Place

Safety-Tape Holds Mats in Place

Sick & tired of your mats being kicked around or tripping over them because the corners have been flipped up? We have the solution.

Our Safety-Tape made from 3M Safety Walk is a clear vinyl tape designed to tape down your floor mats. This tape is pressure sensitive–just peel and stick. Unlike ugly duct tape often used for this purpose, this clear tape has memory, keeping your mats in place for long periods of time.

Installation should be done on a dry, clean floor. Just peel of the paper liner and stick 1″ of the tape to the clean floor matting edging and 1″ of tape to your floor. Once down, roll the tape with a rubber roller to remove any air pockets. The tape will become clearer as you roll.

Our Safety Tape has an anti slip surface and is made to last. By taping your mats you will be complying to A.D.A. standards. Because this tape is so effective, dirt and moisture cannot get under your mat, keeping the floor under dry and clean. When you need to remove the Safety Tape, just pull up from one end. There will be no sticky residue left on your floor or mat unlike other tapes.

Safer in Your Bathtub w Anti Slip Safety

All of us have heard about slips and falls in the bathroom and, in particular, the bath tub. Most accidents occur with the extremely young or the extremely old. But I believe no matter what the age, all of us have minimally had near misses in the bathtub.

A little known solution in bath safety are two marvelous anti-slip bath mats, 3M™ Safety Bath and Sill Mats.

Made of 3M’s Safety-Walk™ anti-slip material, this vinyl matting has been used in hospitals and is easy to clean. It can be easily cut to custom shapes for bath tubs or showers with molded-in seats and special drain placement.

It also strikes me that the sill of the tub, which many use to enter or exit the tub, or dry feet on, becomes extremely slippery and yet has never been addressed. The Safety Sill mat solves this risk instantly and inexpensively.

How to keep your floors clean with dogs running in and out of the house

You never realize how much dirt is on your floor until you have hardwood floors. My dogs would track in dirt right onto my floors causing scratches and just a huge mess. I had to sweep and mop on a daily basis, what a hassle!

I then started looking into floor matting for entrances. I was then informed that just using a mat inside the door would not do much but if I used an entrance system the dirt tracked in would be cut down by at least 80%.

Now, with an entrance system you have a vinyl mat (also known as a scraper mat) outside your door and a recycled-fiber carpet mat inside your door. As the traffic moves over the outside mat all of the dirt and loose debris is scraped off then when the carpet mat is crossed the moisture is wiped from the bottom of the feet.

Since purchasing my floor matting system my floors stay much cleaner.
