FRONTRUNNER+
FRONTRUNNER+
FRONTRUNNER+ is an open grid commercial entrance matting system with absorbent carpet inserts, designed for effective dirt and moisture control in demanding high traffic entrances.
The engineered open grid construction provides an aggressive scraping action, helping remove dirt and debris from footwear while allowing contamination to fall beneath the walking surface. Zeno 600 series ECONYL® regenerated nylon carpet inserts provide high moisture absorption, helping reduce the transfer of water and dirt onto internal floor finishes.
Designed for heavy pedestrian traffic and wheeled access, FRONTRUNNER+ features wheel and heel proof construction with certified slip resistance for demanding commercial environments. The system is suitable for applications including retail stores, shopping centres, hotels, offices and other busy public entrances.
Manufactured from flexible PVC with durable absorbent carpet inserts, FRONTRUNNER+ is designed for long term commercial performance. The system can be specified to suit individual entrance requirements, with Excel Matting providing product selection, specification, supply and installation support for commercial projects throughout the UK.

Frontrunner+ is an ideal solution for a wide range of internal, high‑traffic commercial and public environments. These include shopping centres, office buildings, transport hubs, hospitals, and education facilities where effective removal of dirt and moisture is essential to maintaining safe, clean and professional interiors.
Engineered with a robust open‑grid PVC construction and absorbent carpet inserts, the system delivers excellent dirt scraping and maximum moisture retention at the point of entry.

A low‑profile version is also available where reduced floor depths are required.
