GUFERO PVC carpets serve as an alternative to the more widely known rubber mats.
PVC carpets are manufactured from softened polyvinyl chloride which provides the mats with their characteristic softness for walking on. The advantage of PVC for the manufacture of mats is its good chemical and thermal resistance.
PVC carpets are made from soft spaghetti-shaped loops and therefore these mats are also known as “spaghetti carpet”. PVC carpets are formed by a layer of loops the thickness of which is a standard 12 mm. PVC carpets are classified according to the type of backing (the underside of the PVC mat).
The selection of the correct type of mat backing is important for the application and further maintenance of the mat. For example, PVC carpets without backing are easier to beat as dirt can fall out from both sides of the mat. Foam backed PVC carpets can retain water to some extent which thereby softens the PVC mat and makes it more comfortable to walk on. PVC carpets with a firm backing are found in applications where hardened mats are required (e.g. in cases where there is no frame for placing the mat).
Flexible PVC carpets are suitable for entrances to buildings and other busy places. Due to their flexibility and relative softness, PVC carpets are also suitable for walking on barefoot. One of the main advantages of PVC carpets is their ability to catch dirt.
PVC carpets can either be placed outside just before an entrance and within the outdoor cleaning zone or directly inside. In most cases mats are placed into frames recessed into the floor. Another option is to place the mats into frames with a bevelled edge or freely into frames.
Thanks to their porous structure PVC carpets are easy to clean by beating or washing under running water. Alternatively, PVC carpets can be vacuumed (ideally using a water filter vacuum cleaner).
