Forbo connects with the EFS market

One of the most flexible single sided entrance mats available in the UK, Nuway Connect provides yet another viable option for specifiers from Forbo Flooring Systems’ comprehensive entrance systems flooring portfolio.  

Precisely tailored to individual requirements, Nuway Connect gives peace of mind in stopping a high proportion of dirt and moisture from entering a building, whilst the patented rollable rigid system allows for easy maintenance.

The beauty of Nuway Connect lies in the single sided format, which is available in an open construction making it considerably easier to clean the matwell.  This type of construction means the product is a ‘rollable’ rigid system, so mats can easily be rolled up for cleaning, while the patented product design ensures the mat can only be rolled inwardly, ensuring it maintains its shape.  

In addition, Nuway Connect can be shaped on site, making it ideal for irregular shaped entrances – all at a lower price point than double sided systems.  

Combined with this sophisticated design, is the flexibility that comes from the wide choice of inserts for specifiers, as the mat can be adapted to suit individual requirements.  

For internal matting zones, Connect is available with a choice of six Coral classic inserts, allowing the rigid entrance system to be colour co-ordinated to matching Coral classic sheet product which can be used in the secondary matting zone.  These inserts can even be changed on site if the styling preference is changed after a few years of use.

Forbo’s award winning Coral collection is now effective at stopping up to 94% of all tracked in dirt, making it 40% more effective than previous ranges.  Specifiers can therefore be confident that Nuway Connect will perform from a safety perspective in reducing the potential for slips and trips, and secondly in contributing to substantial savings of up to 65% in cleaning costs.  Rubber and bristled inserts are also available for both internal and external use.

“Nuway Connect is manufactured in Britain, as part of the dedicated entrance flooring systems’ family of products.  Our knowledge of this area has enabled us to create EFS options that completely meet our customers’ needs,” explains Garry Bateman, Head of Technical Sales and Support at Forbo Flooring Systems.

“Forbo’s selection of entrance flooring has been constructed in such a manner, that those responsible for specifying can explore all options and either switch up or down depending on the job in hand – as the complete portfolio now offers multiple (modular) formats and price points.”

Nuway Connect offers a choice of eight inserts, three heights - from 10mm to 22mm - and two constructions (open and closed).  Additionally, Connect with Coral inserts meet Bfl-S1 fire regulations.  

Forbo advises FESSI (Forbo Entrance System Specialist Installer) installation of any Nuway Connect rigid mat, which will extend the guarantee from five to seven years.
