Appearance
Contract-King inserts are available in Grey, Black, Anthracite, Brown, Beige, Red, Olive Green, Emerald Green, Royal Blue and Purple.
Rubber strips are predominantly Black.
Sitework
Consult manufacturer for details. Matting must always be laid with the direction of the strips at right angles to the principal flow of traffic.
Cleaning and maintenance
Daily cleaning by vacuum cleaner is recommended, together with occasional complete removal of the matting for thorough cleaning, particularly in the case of open-construction mats, where the matwells will require regular removal of any build-up of grit, dirt or rain. All strips should be removed and replaced when worn, or if a new colour is required to blend with a revised design scheme.
