80% of dirt in buildings comes in on footwear

At this time of year (with winter approaching) a floor mat service becomes even more essential. Calabash Mint offers all types of mats to our clients including a monthly clean mat delivery service.

We supply three mats – one is on your floor catching the dirt, one is in transit and one is being professionally cleaned. You therefore have a clean mat weekly / fortnightly / monthly.

Entrance floor mats catch around 70% of dirt entering on shoes. Furthermore, if the entrance mat has your logo, it can enhance your brand visibility.
