Technical Statement
Product Description
Designed and manufactured in New Zealand, MODUL is an extra heavy duty modular entrance matting system specifically designed for large, busy entrance ways, such as shopping malls, airports, schools and Universities.
Combination of scraper bars, rigid infills and multiple water drain channels enable MODUL to capture and contain dirt and water, preventing resoiling of footwear and keeping interior flooring clean, safe and dry.
Modular construction enables matting of any size to be interconnected and fitted on site. Solid PVC base tiles are crush resistant and handle heavy loads. The extra low profile of just 10mms, enables flush fitting with most floor coverings without the need for creating a setdown or ramping..
Scope of use
MODUL can be used anywhere inside at points of entry, from the smallest of entries such as shops, offices etc., through to the largest, eg. shopping malls, airports and Universities.
