Keeping fast food workers safe
Vynagrip anti-slip matting, manufactured by Plastic Extruders Ltd, is a very durable and hardwearing mating widely used in all types of working environments to provide a permanent slip resistant surface in temperatures down to -26°C.
Vynagrip’s very durable, extra aggressive and deep etched surface provides an excellent slip resistant performance (R11 when tested to DIN 51130). Furthermore, its non-porous 100% vinyl composition means it is resistant to acids, oils and fats making it ideal for use in food storage and preparation areas. It can be easily rolled up to facilitate cleaning while its open grid construction allows liquids and debris waste to fall through, thereby further reducing the risk of slipping or tripping.
An example of this is at a well-known fast food restaurant chain where it is used in frozen and chilled rooms to provide a comfortable and slip resistant walking surface. Since these areas often experience temperatures in excess of -20°C, it is vital to ensure safety underfoot and to protect workers from slipping on the frozen and icy floors.
Vynagrip can be supplied in standard modules and roll format. Modules are available in 80 x 120cm or 100 x 150cm sizes while rolls can be 5m or 10m long and in widths of 60, 91 or 122cm. Standard colours are red, blue or black. The black version is manufactured from post-industrial recycled material and is fully recyclable, making it a sustainable and environmentally-sensitive choice.
