Matting
Thorne & Derrick are able to arrange manufacture of insulating and switchboard matting from our wide range of premium, low odour, rubber matting to your exact sizes and design and in accordance to IEC61111. Our REACH/PAH/CE approved compliant rubber compounds provide no off gassing which can cause nasty smells within internal environments. Rubber which has a pungent odour usually has been heavily recycled and been manufactured with the use of prohibited chemicals which are banned by REACH/EU. REACH regulations are tightening, and many online reviews of current non regulated matting products found on the market have regular end user complaints of a ‘toxic odour’ and ‘smell’ that does not disappear’. The advice given by the supplier is to ‘clean with soap and water’ or ‘leave outside for a prolonged period’.
The truth is really these products are most probably non-compliant and should not be placed into the European market. Contact us for odour free matting options.
