Anodised Entrance Matting
Luxury Anodised Aluminium Grid Barrier Entrance Matting
What is anodised aluminium?
Anodising is a surface-enhancement process used to create a durable oxide coating on metal. For aluminium, this process produces a tough, inert layer of aluminium oxide (corundum) that is:
- Highly resistant to wear
- Electrically insulating
- Able to absorb dyes for long-lasting, UV-stable colour finishes
This makes anodised aluminium an excellent choice for high-traffic commercial entrance areas requiring both performance and aesthetic flexibility.
Choice of anodised finishes
Premium anodised aluminium grid entrance matting systems are available in a choice of eight high-quality anodised finishes:
- Gold - light, medium, dark
- Bronze - light, medium, dark
- Black
- Gunmetal Grey
All eight finishes are offered across the complete EMS Aluminium Grid Entrance Matting Ranges.

Colour Stability
