Bsc Preferred MAT163MG Entrance Waffle Scraper Floor Mat

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED MAT163MG is an entrance floor mat designed to remove dirt, water, and debris from footwear before it reaches interior flooring. The raised, square waffle pattern works as a scraping surface that mechanically lifts and traps contaminants from shoe soles on contact. The mat absorbs water, snow, and ice melt to keep surrounding floor surfaces drier and safer underfoot. It dries quickly after use and resists color fading over time. Facility maintenance staff, building managers, and janitorial contractors install these mats at entryways in commercial and institutional settings to reduce slip hazards and protect interior flooring.

This mat is suited for high-traffic entryways in commercial buildings, office lobbies, retail spaces, schools, and industrial facilities. The waffle scraper design handles both wet and dry debris, making it appropriate for year-round use in climates with rain, snow, and mud. Maintenance is straightforward: the mat can be vacuumed, hosed off, steam cleaned, or shampooed. This product is equivalent to part number H-629MG.

Installation Notes

Entrance mats are placed by facility maintenance or janitorial staff without special tools or licensed trade requirements. Position the mat flat on a clean, dry floor surface at the entryway threshold to ensure full contact and prevent curling or tripping hazards. Inspect mat edges periodically to confirm they lie flat and do not create a trip risk, particularly in high-traffic corridors subject to OSHA facility safety guidelines. When cleaning with a hose or steam cleaner, allow the mat to dry fully before returning it to service.
