EMS Colortread Entrance Matting System
The Colortread Entrance Matting System range was designed and developed at the very beginning of EMS ltd. We were the first manufacturers of barrier entrance matting systems to create a practical and economical combination of durability and colour. Colortread is a colourful barrier entrance matting system that not only removes foot-borne dirt and moisture with remarkable efficiency but also offers an attractive visual alternative to other products on the market. With the additional benefit of replaceable infill materials and colourful scraper bars. Creating a more sustainable and cost effective entrance matting system for our clients.
The Colortread range of entrance matting is constructed using a rigid over 95% recycled aluminium base which is stronger than wired products. This has the added advantage of making it easy for you to update your colour scheme whenever you like, simply by changing the coloured scraper bars and inserts.
No other entrance matting product offers such a comprehensive range of colours. You can mix and match any combination of inserts and scraper bars to create your own scheme. The scraper bars are available in a choice of 10 colours. We can even produce customised logo mats to match your corporate identity.
We offer a bespoke solution for every entrance matting application. Available as recessed or surface mounted entrance matting systems.
Unusual shapes and configurations are no problem as mats can be manufactured to any shape and size.
