Bsc Preferred MAT177NY Waffle Entry Floor Mat

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED MAT177NY is a heavy-duty entry mat designed to scrape dirt, water, and debris from footwear at building entrances and high-traffic transitional zones. Its raised square waffle pattern provides aggressive scraping action at the surface level while the mat body absorbs moisture from snow, ice, and rain to help keep interior floors dry. The mat dries quickly after saturation and is engineered to resist color fading over extended use. At a packaged weight of 41.16 pounds, this is a substantial commercial-grade mat built for demanding facility environments.

This mat is suited for commercial and industrial facility applications including building entryways, lobbies, loading docks, and break room thresholds. It is a practical solution for facility managers, safety coordinators, and janitorial supply professionals looking to reduce slip hazards and maintain cleaner interior floors during wet or muddy conditions. Its large footprint, indicated by a package width of 36.5 inches, makes it appropriate for wide entry points in commercial settings.

Installation Notes

Placement of entry mats should follow facility safety guidelines and may be subject to requirements under OSHA slip, trip, and fall prevention standards. Position the mat flat on a clean, dry floor surface and ensure edges are not curled or raised to prevent a trip hazard. For permanent or semi-permanent installations in high-traffic areas, use of a mat anchor or non-slip backing pad may be appropriate. Inspect the mat regularly for wear, curling edges, or saturation that could reduce effectiveness.
