Entrance flooring plays a critical role in maintaining cleanliness, safety, and aesthetics in commercial and residential buildings…

Coral is Forbo’s market-leading entrance flooring solution, designed to stop up to 95% of dirt and moisture from entering buildings, helping reduce cleaning costs and maintain interior flooring

Entrance flooring systems have a critical safety role to play. Slips, trips and falls make up a lot of all reported major injuries. By taking sensible decisions over flooring surfaces and installing effective entrance matting, the potential for slipping can be dramatically reduced.

Moreover, a well designed entrance flooring system will prevent dirt and moisture from being tracked in and thereby prolong the life of your interior flooring and reduce cleaning, repair and overall maintenance costs.

Forbo offers entrance solutions for all types of entrances, both rigid (Nuway) and textile entrance systems (Coral)..

Why Entrance Flooring Matters

The First Line of Defense for Your Building

Entrance flooring plays a critical safety and maintenance role in every building.

  • Dirt and moisture are the main causes of floor wear and accidents
  • Slips, trips, and falls are a major source of injuries in buildings
  • Poor entrance design increases cleaning and repair costs

A properly designed entrance system helps:

  • Keep interiors clean
  • Reduce slip risks
  • Protect floor finishes

 A well-designed system can stop up to 95% of dirt and moisture from entering the building

What is entrance flooring and why is it important?

Entrance flooring is a system designed to remove dirt and moisture from shoes before entering a building.

It is important because it:

  • Keeps interiors cleaner
  • Reduces slip risks
  • Protects floor finishes
  • Lowers cleaning and maintenance costs

Forbo systems can stop up to 95% of dirt and moisture from entering a building when properly installed as a full system.

This significantly:

  • Reduces cleaning costs
  • Improves safety
  • Extends the lifespan of interior flooring
  • Coral: Textile entrance flooring used indoors to absorb moisture and fine dirt
  • Nuway: Rigid matting system used outdoors or at main entrances to remove coarse dirt

For best results, the system should allow at least 3–6 steps across the surface.

The longer the entrance system:

  • The more dirt is removed
  • The better moisture is absorbed

Yes — Forbo systems are specifically designed for high-traffic environments, including:

  • Airports
  • Shopping malls
  • Hospitals
  • Office buildings
