Heronrib
Self-draining barefoot matting designed for wet areas with high traffic.
Keep bathing and washing areas safe with Heronrib, the ultimate slip-resistant leisure and poolside matting designed to withstand extensive barefoot traffic in wet areas.
Made from strong, non-porous PVC with channelled underbars, Heronrib automatically self-drains – even when faced with the largest amounts of water. Its embossed surface provides a strong grip underfoot, while the antimicrobial and antifungal properties ensures it remains bacteria resistant.
This winning combination of slip-resistance, drainage and hygiene makes it the ideal swimming pool matting. It’s also a great choice for wet areas where people need cushioning underfoot, like pool decks, locker rooms, shower rooms, changing rooms, gyms and recreation centres.

PVC edging (H: 3/8", W: 2")
Supplied in rolls of 33’ (10.1m) length. One tube of cold welding paste recommended for every 33' of edging. Comes in black and dark gray. Size: 3/8" x 2" x 33' (10mm x 50mm x 10.1m)
Connector clips: dual purpose (H: 9/16")
For joining sections of matting together side-to-side or end-to-end. Supplied in packs of 10
PVC snap track (H: 3/8")
Two-part snap track that can be welded together to join rolls end-to-end or side-to-side to cover large areas. We recommend one tube of cold welding paste for every 33’ of edging. Comes in dark gray and black. Size: 13/32" x 8'2" (10.5mm x 2.5m)
Small floor hook (H: 9/16”)
For securing sections of the matting to the floor. Supplied in packs of 10 with screws and plugs
Heronrib's one-piece construction means installation is simple
- Made from flexible PVC
- Supplied in rolls for quick installation
- Easy to cut to fit on site
- Contours to uneven surfaces
Regular cleaning will maintain both the effectiveness and lifespan of Heronrib
Heronrib has both anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties to protect against fungal and bacterial contamination, but regular cleaning is also recommended to remove light grease and oils, food fat, wax and acrylic polishes.
PREPARATION
Check the matting is free from any loose items like litter and clothing fibers.
HAND CLEANING
Regular hand cleaning should be done as required, using an alkaline cleaning fluid as per the manufacturer's instructions. The matting can be cleaned in position – simply apply the cleaning solution with a sprayer or mop and allow to penetrate any grease or dirt. You can then use a stiff deck brush to work the cleaning fluid into the surface dirt. Allow to soak before rinsing with clean water.
If you're deep cleaning or cleaning the flooring below, the mats should be rolled up. They shouldn't be folded or pulled or dragged, as this will damage the matting over time.
MACHINE CLEANING
How frequently you machine clean will depend on how much traffic the area gets. Spray the surface with the alkaline solution and then, using a cylindrical brush machine, clean the top surface in the direction of the top ribs. If there's an etched pattern on the top ribs where dirt can easily collect, make additional cross passes to ensure a thorough clean.
If the underside of the matting also needs a clean, roll it up and then roll back out, leaving the underside facing upwards. Repeat the spray and above cleaning instructions.
STEAM CLEANING
Any type of steam cleaner can be used. Good results have been obtained with nozzle pressure of approximately 1000 lbs p.s.i. (6894.8 kN/m²) and water temperature of approximately 212°F. Cleaning fluid should be diluted according to the manufacturer's recommendation.
