Highly regarded in many different industries such as microelectronics, aerospace, pharmaceuticals, food processing and even in the home, the disposable Sticky Mat is the best, most reliable way to keep floors debris free. Sticky mats clean debris from not just shoe soles, but many other items, even office cart wheels and the bottoms of chair legs, right before entering a sanitary area. Available in a wide variety of colors and sizes as well as two tackiness grades, the Sticky Mat offers the perfect alternative to a standard doormat or even the removal of shoes in keeping floors clean.



How Does the Sticky Mat work?

The Sticky Mat is made up of layers of tear-off polyethylene film sheets that are specially formulated in such a way that dirt and debris are attracted to the mat while the adhesive does not transfer to shoe soles, cart wheels, or anything else – this means that the Sticky Mat cleans without leaving any kind of residue. All Sticky Mats are non-drying, non-allergenic and non-odorous; the surface of each sheet remains smooth throughout the entire time of use and is not damaged by pressure or scraping. The treated, pressure-sensitive adhesion on the top of each polyethylene film sheet removes all contamination and each sheet simply peels back to reveal a clean sheet underneath. This makes it simple to maintain a clean Sticky Mat at all times without worrying about the need for messy fluid cleaners or the time required to scrub down an entrance area. The Sticky Mat can be quite convenient in clean zones and highly sanitized areas.

Installation and Application of the Sticky Mat

Although it is frequently used in the aerospace industry, the application and installation of the Sticky Mat is not rocket science. Each Sticky Mat comes with your choice of either a full sheet or two inch wide double sided adhesive film allowing for simple placement because the backing adheres directly to the floor. After installation, the clear protective film can be removed and the Sticky Mat is immediately ready for use. All Sticky Mats have a numbered system either on a corner pull tab or an uncoated edge to help you pull only one sheet at a time as well as keep track of how many sheets have been used.

Choosing the Right Sticky Mat for Your Industry or Home

The most important factor when choosing the right Sticky Mat is level of tackiness; this will depend upon what kinds of shoes, booties, and/or wheels will be using the Sticky Mat. All Sticky Mat retailers have charts and explanations that can help you to decide which level would be most appropriate. Another consideration is the size of the Sticky Mat; certainly this would depend mostly upon its planned location. There are generally eight different sizes of Sticky Mats to be had, but custom sizes are also available. Finally, Sticky Mats are available in at least four colors, depending upon the retailer, and company logos are an additional option.
