Mat Rental Services

When talking about Mat Rental Services it is a common occurrence for service companies to group "Mats" or "Dust Control Mats" together under the one banner. Whilst most rental mats have some common features, each type of mat has important individual features , providing differing potential benefits to prospective clients. It is important to understand the features and potential benefits of each type of mat  we supply, so that we can "tailor" our sales story to meet the discovered needs of our client. There is no point dwelling on cleaning time savings to a buyer only interested in enhancing the image his company projects.
Many of our varying mat types provide benefits that work "in concert", and together provide solutions to a wider range of problems a client may be experiencing. The way to tie together these solutions s usually by carrying out a Floor Plan Needs Survey. In this section we will look at the various Mat types we service, listing some of the features and potential benefits these features may provide a client.

Frontier Grey Dust Control Mats

An effective Dust Control Mat will trap up to 80% of the damaging grit, dust and dirt that wll be tracked into a building. AUS nylon mat range is constructed with an unusual triple strand pile, that has been twisted and heat set to provide a superior dirt collection performance. It is this this special pile structure that prevents the AUS Frontier Mat from unravelling and "matting" together as
most normal Mats do. This gives the pile the ability to act like tiny brushes, scrubbing the soles of the shoes then springing right back to shape. The dirt, dust and moisture however is trapped deep beneath the pile surface, while the mat maintains its bright attractive appearance. The actual effectiveness of the mat can make it difficult to "Trial" sell, as the most of the dirt collected does not show on the surface of the mat. The "paper" test (Detailed in later sections) is often used to demonstrate the soil collection attributes of these Mats.
The Frontier Mat comes in three size, to suit most applications. The 85x150cm (5x3) is designed to be placed lengthwise in a doorway or entrance. It should be placed lengthways to ensure that 2 steps fall on the mat allowing it to function as designed. If placed sideways most people will only place one foot on the mat as they pass over it, thus decreasing its effectiveness by 50%. The 115x180cm Mat ideally should also be placed lengthways for maximum efficiency, however when placed sideways 80-90% of people will place two steps on the mat, maintaining a high degree of dirt control whilst allowing the flexibility of sideways placement, The 85x300 (6x4) mat allows 5 or 6 steps when placed lengthways and is the most effective device where applicable. It is especially good at trapping moisture, preventing possible slips and falls on Vynal/Tlle floors. It can also the used effectively placed along counters, where people stand or congregate.
Frontier Mats feature a heavy duty, cleated backing that grips the floor to prevent movement of the mat once placed in situ. All the mats AUS provides are exchanged for clean laundered mats on a weekly service cycle. Mats are delivered and placed "in situ" by our serviceman, involving no involvement from our client.
