EMS says it provides natural sustainable entrance matting that doesn’t compromise on quality, colour choice and style.

‘EMS delivers a fantastic choice of sustainable entrance matting products, including infill strips made from recycled, recyclable and renewable materials. All infill strips can be replaced with like-for-like or different materials and/or colours. In addition to this, EMS entrance matting systems come with 100% recycled aluminium grid systems as standard.

‘Although entrance matting is often a small aspect of building and renovation design, choosing the right products can help the sustainability of the project as a whole. As a result, EMS has helped numerous building and renovation projects achieve A+ BREEAM and LEED ratings.’

These, in the company’s own words, are its most sustainable entrance matting systems:

• EMS Recover - replaceable, ribbed 80% recycled PET (ie plastic bottles) infill strips, fully recyclable after use due to the innovative use of thermal bonding instead of adhesives and additives.

• EMS Tretford Design Range – replaceable, ribbed, natural and renewable goat hair infill strips. Ethically sourced material made with waste/by-product, and Global Tag certification. With 60 colours to choose from, this entrance matting system is perfect for matching interior or brand colours and creating in-laid logos. Stylish and luxurious designs can be created using this beautiful texture and colour combination, further enhanced by the large selection of anodised aluminium – endless design possibilities.

• EMS LU Multi-track (section 12) – replaceable, multi-directional, natural and renewable, low smoke emission rubber infill strips. This extremely hardwearing entrance matting system was designed to meet the strictest health and safety requirements of the London Underground and is on the LUL register and has been successfully installed at numerous Underground and overground train stations throughout the UK.

• EMS Evergreen Debris Channel – GREENSPEC-approved - DC003-md recycled polyester and polypropylene multi-directional honeycomb, suitable for internal and external use;

- DC004 100% natural renewable coconut fibres, suitable for internal use;
- DC008 recycled rubber, which is extremely hardwearing and ideal for external use

Concludes the company: ‘Building and renovation design has a large impact on the environment, therefore designers, manufacturers, and contractors have an enormous responsibility to choose and create the most sustainable materials and solutions.

EMS takes its environmental responsibility seriously and is passionate about delivering sustainable entrance matting systems for all commercial applications.’
