PVC- and plasticizer-free entrance mats and very low VOC emission

Pura Backing™ makes entrance mats more sustainable, by avoiding the use of flexible PVC. It’s the answer to increased demand by commercial and home interior furnishers for environmentally friendly and sustainable solutions down to the last detail, including the entrance mat! Mats with Pura Backing™ satisfy this requirement: zero PVC, zero plasticizers, a very low VOC emission – and easy to install!

Entrance mats, made with ECONYL® and Pura Backing™ have received the Blue Angel Ecolabel. This means that these products are strictly verified to be more environmentally friendly and healthier than comparable standard products.

PVC-free

Sustainability and innovation are important themes in the world of flooring. There’s an increased emphasis on PVC-free purchasing policies to reduce environmental impact. Commercial interior suppliers are also increasingly demanding environmentally friendly materials, from furnishing, upholstery and lighting to flooring. Walk-off entrance mats with Pura Backing™ not only come in a variety of qualities and designs – they are also absolutely PVC-free and thus less harmful to the environment. Pura Backing™ is made of polyurethane, filled with calcium carbonate.

No plasticizers – No stains

Mats with Pura Backing™ contain no chlorides or plasticizers. So there’s no floor discoloration or stickiness due to plasticiser migration under mats with Pura Backing™. For residential and commercial furnishers this solves the common problem of discoloration. Beautiful floors remain beautiful, even under the entrance mat, and require less maintenance.

 

Easy to install

Mats with Pura Backing™ weigh less and are very flexible. So they’re easy to install, for example in mat wells. And, if laid loose, are easy to move when vacuuming and mopping the entrance floor area. Loose laid Pura Backing™ mats have a flat edge trim all around that reduces the chance of tripping and protects the mat against wear.

Very low VOC emission

VOCs are substances that can evaporate from materials and affect indoor air quality. Mats with Pura Backing™ release only minimal amounts of these substances. The very low VOC emission has been independently tested and meets strict European criteria, including ABG/AgBB, Indoor Air Comfort Gold, BREEAM International and LEED.

This means mats with Pura Backing™ contribute to a healthy living and working environment, from the moment they are installed.
