4.2. HEIGHT OF PROFILE
The more intense the trafc is, the most quantity of dirt has to retain the entrance mat. Therefore, the recommendation is
choosing the higher entrance mats for areas with intense trafc, since due to the height of the prole they have a greater
capacity to retain dirt. This results into a minor cleaning frequency and help to save costs of cleaning an maintenance.
However, in many occasions the mat well or the particularities of the project do not allow to place the optimal option recom-
mended by Emac®. There is no problem in placing other models. Just keep in mind that the mat will be functional but
probably will increase the cleaning frequency and, as a consequence, the maintenance costs.

4.3. FINISH
For outdoor mats, the best option is placing the Novomat® with rubber nish. The rubber, due to its hardness and striated
surface, will help to clean the coarse dirt on the soles of the shoes before entering the buildings.
For indoor mats, the best option is placing the Novomat® with textile carpet nish. This carpet helps to clean the ne dirt on
the soles of the shoes and absorbs the moisture, guaranteeing a remarkable reduction of dirt, preventing the ooring from
deteriorating and helping to reduce the cleaning frequency.
The best choice is creating a bizone system of cleaning which combines an outdoor entrance mat, in front of the entry of a
building, with another one with textile carpet nish for indoors. This way, before entering a building we ensure that the coarse
dirt is retained outdoors and once inside, the textile carpet cleans the ne dirt and absorbs the moisture. With this bizone
system up to 80% of dirt can be retain, resulting in an important saving in costs of cleaning and maintenance.
If there is no outdoor entry, another option would be placing an entrance mat with a combination of rubber and textile carpet
nishes.
