Use rubber matting to create a safe walkway when working on roofs or other slippery surfaces. Available in a wide range of styles and sizes, roof walkway matting is available with fast and free delivery across the UK, ensuring your workers are protected against the risk of slips and falls.
Walkway matting provides a stable and secure surface for workers to walk on. Flat roof surfaces are the most common application, where workers face the risk of slips and falls from height, but other industrial applications can benefit from this anti-slip, all-weather matting too.
Construction sites can become muddy and slippery, particularly after rain, which is common in the UK. The natural rubber matting helps prevent slips, trips, and falls, among the most common accidents in the UK.
Walkway matting can also be used to clearly mark walkways and safe pedestrian routes around premises, keeping workers away from hazardous areas and ensuring that vehicles and pedestrians are sharing different spaces.
Finally, it's an aspect of site housekeeping. Keeping a tidy site is important for safety, efficiency, and professionalism. Walkway matting helps reduce the spread of mud and debris around the site and into public areas or roads, which can be a particular concern in urban construction sites. Especially those signed up to the Considerate Constructions Scheme (CCS).
Our mats are built to provide permanent slip resistance in all weathers and environments. They are heavy-duty and trade-rated, ensuring they can handle the toughest conditions, even in high-traffic areas.
We understand that construction sites can get messy and the importance of maintaining site cleanliness and conditions, especially when conforming to the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS). That's why our mats are easy to clean, with minimal effort.
Safety is paramount on construction sites. Our mats offer high traction, even in wet or muddy conditions, reducing the risk of slips and falls.
Our walkway matting is available in a range of materials. Natural rubber matting offers fantastic grip in all conditions and is highly flexible. The material is widely used in anti-fatigue matting, as it provides a more comfortable surface to stand on. Vinyl matting can be more expensive, but provides the option of high-visibility colours for extra safety. We also offer slip resistant PVC matting, which provides a strong but lightweight matting option. For permanent slip resistance, consider using GRP material, the strongest material available for anti-slip roof matting.
Our mats are rugged and weatherproof, built to withstand rain, snow, and everything in between, keeping your pathways safe and slip-free.
Modular mats allow you to create customised, easy-to-move walkways, ensuring clear and organised movement across your site. They are also portable, making setup and relocation simple and adapting to the constant changes on site.
In the UK, the law does not explicitly state the specific requirement for roof walkway matting. However, the law does require that workplaces are safe and without health risks. The Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 places a duty on employers to ensure the safety of all employees and anyone affected by their work, as reasonably practicable. This includes providing a safe working environment.
Additionally, the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015) set out specific requirements for managing health, safety, and welfare when carrying out construction projects. Under these regulations, there is an emphasis on planning and managing the construction work so that risks are controlled from start to finish, including providing safe access to and around the site.
At First Mats, we value the importance of quality and safety in equal measure. That's why our heavy-duty walkway matting is rigorously tested to ensure it will stand the test of time and reduce the risk of accidents. We also understand that matting is often needed urgently, which is why we offer a standard 2-3 working days delivery, with next day delivery available on many products - contact our sales and customer service team to discuss the options.
Finally, our commitment to excellence is backed up by thousands of positive reviews from customers who often recommend First Mats to others. So if you need natural rubber matting for your walkways, look no further.
