New Tuff Spun Deck is the latest addition to the range of anti-fatigue mattings, from international matting manufacturer Plastic Extruders Ltd. The new matting is specially designed to provide slip protection, comfort underfoot in working environments.
Tuff Spun Deck is a hard-wearing, anti-fatigue matting which combines a closed cell PVC foam base with heavy duty wear layer top surface. The embossed vinyl checker plate wear layer surface provides added traction as well as being abrasion and puncture resistant. A benefit of Tuff Spun Deck is that it’s manufactured in one single composition with different colours to the wear layer and underside. This means that not only is it bonded perfectly but also has the added advantage of being more competitively priced than traditional mattings manufactured from dual materials. It is ideal as a durable, slip resistant surface in areas where workers spend extended periods of time standing. Continue reading...
