Choosing the right entrance flooring matters for three good reasons:
Unfortunately we live in a litigious age. That’s why it’s good to know the Frontrunner Entry and Frontrunner XT are classified R11 under DIN 51130. This means they have been tested to be slip resistant at an angle of 27º, even when wet. This translates to peace of mind that your entrance flooring system is independently tested giving a performance safe entrance flooring. Additionally, the Frontrunner Entrance Flooring System conforms to the requirements of the BS 8300:2009 Design of buildings and their approaches to meet the needs of disabled people. Code of Practice.
Your entrance flooring is, by definition, one of the first things clients and visitors see; so it plays a vital role in creating first impressions. As you’ll see from the location pictures in this brochure our range of colours, custom logos, styles and tread patterns will make sure you get it right.
Up to 80% of dirt comes into your building on shoes or wheels. All Frontrunner entrance flooring is designed to remove, trap and hide this dirt from the traffic areas until it is easily removed during cleaning.
Our flooring deals with dirt so effectively that it will expand the life of your internal floor finishes and will help reduce your cleaning intervals. Frontrunner's one piece welded roll format ensures a durable and effective product. For further peace of mind, many of the installations shown in this brochure have been in place for ten years or more and still look as good as the day they were fitted.
