Why use Frontrunner entrance flooring system?

There are three main reasons for fitting any entrance flooring system:

• protection of internal floor coverings;
• reduction of interior floor cleaning requirements;
• minimising the risk of slips on imported foreign matter.

However, NOT all entrance flooring systems are created equal.

Developed by Plastic Extruders Ltd the Frontrunner Entrance Flooring system has been tested to meet the most demanding standards. Manufactured from high quality vinyl in roll format, Frontrunner Entrance Flooring System is extremely hard wearing, retaining its appearance and performance even in the heaviest of traffic areas. Frontrunner not only meets, but exceeds, all the requirements of British Standards 7953: 1999 and 8300: 2001 for entrance flooring systems.

Frontrunner Entrance Flooring System's abrasive 'diamond cut' surface, combined with high quality inserts, ensures effective soil removal, while its open grid allows soil to fall through and not be tracked in by subsequent traffic. This takes care of protecting the floor coverings and reduces the need for interior floor cleaning.

As far as slip resistance performance is concerned Frontrunner Entrance Flooring System meets the international standards of DIN 51130 (R11) and ASTM F 1677 (Dry 0.6/Wet 0.6).

Today, to ignore the need for an entrance flooring system can have both legal and financial repercussions, with the potential for dirty offices and risk of slips

As far as the impact on cleanliness is concerned it's as much a matter of presentation as it is of hygiene. Dirty entrances quickly begin to look tatty, less impressive, and less conducive as a place to business. It makes commercial sense to fit an effective entrance flooring system.
