CARPET PROTECTORS AND CHAIR MATS

Castor chairs have the following in common:

  • They all sooner or later damage the surface on which they are used
  • They don’t have the ability to glide effortlessly across every floor surface

Why everyone loves ChairMate®:

  • Effortless movement around your workstation
  • Years of protection to your floor surface, be it carpet, hardwood* or tiles.
  • Unbreakable material
  • Durable textured surface finish and high impact resistance
  • SUPERGRIP ensures the mat stays in place thanks to a grid of 4mm undersurface spikes
  • EASYEDGE allows smooth transition from floor to mat
  • Misty translucent colour compliments all interior finishing
  • Prevents back strain due to chair castor resistance
  • Environmentally friendly – produced from recyclable Polypropylene
  • Sizes to suit all workstation requirements

Special Note on Hardwood Floors –  Some ‘solid wood’ floors are actually quite soft, example SA Pine. Care should be taken by enquiring with your supplier that using a floor protector will not damage your soft wooden flooring.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT CHAIR MAT

  • Before you choose your shape consider your chair’s roll area.
  • Do you sit still or move from a desk to an extension filer or credenza.
  • Determine the furthest points you roll to retrieve items and then pick a size and shape that will cover these dimensions. 
  • There’s a range of sizes and shapes to suit your space.

 TAKE CARE

  • Ensure the chair mat selected is correctly matched to the floor surface it is to be used upon.
  • Nonslip undersurface for laminate or hardwood floors and low pile carpets of 6mm or less.
  • Spiked undersurface for deep piled carpets. The depth of the carpet pile should be more than 6mm thick
.
  • Mats should be laid completely flat on the floor and should not overlap. 
  • Any liquid spilt on the mat surface should immediately be wiped up and dried to reduce the risk of slipping. 

KEEP IT LOOKING GOOD

  • Using soapy dishwashing detergent and a light brush with warm water and a subsequent dry down with a cloth is all that is required to clean your chair mat. 
  • Always ensure, when cleaning, that both upper and under surfaces are completely dry and free of water before reusing.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

We are conscious about our responsibility towards our environment and future generations and place great emphasis on our sustainable production processes.
 
We therefore use environmentally friendly raw materials.
 
Our floor protection mats are produced from the extremely hard wearing and durable Polypropylene which can be 100% recycled into many applications, from buckets and closures, to garden furniture, pallets, pipes, and more. 

When your chair mat reaches the end of its life, please recycle it.
