Primary entrance matting with curved Aluminium rails, known as radial matting, can provide an interesting aspect to a building entrance.
The technique, used by interior designers, of introducing curved shapes and lines to add fluidity and motion to a design scheme, is enhanced by these products. In addition, a practical advantage of curving the rails rather than cutting them to fit a shaped matwell, is that it eliminates the need to cut through the textile insert, a process which can occasionally compromise the integrity of the insert if the curve is shallow.
Radial mats are produced by two manufacturers, Emco and INTRAsystems, and SDS Matting provide a complete supply and installation service.
A full range of formable matwell frames is also available, as well as the option of anodising the Aluminium matting rails.
