What kind of mat is best for use in wet environments? What about freezer environments?
A. Matting constructed of materials that wont absorb water and has drainage holes to prevent liquids from building up on the mat surface is best suited for wet environments. Many offerings for wet environments are also designed with skid-resistant surfaces to help prevent slips and falls. For use in freezers, choose nonporous matting that wont absorb or hold moisture, has a nonskid surface and is constructed of materials that can withstand low temperatures. Due to the variety of freezer temperature extremes, you should always inquire about the temperature rating for which a mat material may have been tested.
