Scraper mats

Scraper mats are often placed at the access gates of artificial turf fields. Athletes and coaches walk over the mat when leaving the field, which removes infill and dirt from shoes more effectively. This helps limit the spread of loose material outside the field.

For good operation, walking length is important. The longer the user walks over the scraper mat, the better the dirt and infill can be loosened. That is why it is important to match the dimensions and position of the mat to the walking route.

In addition to scraper mats for artificial turf fields, we also supply cleaning mats and shoe brushes. These are often used at entrances to sports facilities, changing room areas, club buildings, schools and other buildings where dirt tracked in needs to be limited.

Shoe brushes enable users to clean their shoes easily before entering the building. This contributes to a cleaner floor and can help to limit cleaning and maintenance costs.

For situations where extra collection is needed, you can choose a version with recessed dirt collection. In this case, dirt, sand, infill and microplastics are captured more effectively, so they are less likely to end up outside the field or in the surrounding area.

A scraper mat with dirt collection is particularly interesting for artificial turf fields where preserving infill and limiting the spread are important points. This makes the solution suitable for sports parks that actively focus on maintenance and preventive measures.

Our range also includes GreenMatter recycled scraper mats. These are made from materials from old artificial turf fields, connecting to a circular setup for sports parks.

With a recycled scraper mat, you choose a practical measure against the spread of infill and microplastics, and you also help to apply materials again from worn-out artificial turf fields. This way, circularity literally returns to and around the sports field.

At artificial turf fields, it is important to prevent the spread of loose material and fibres as much as possible. That is why scraper mats are often used as part of preventive measures around preserving infill and countering microplastics.

Together with solutions such as edging boards, cleaning zones and good maintenance routines, scraper mats can help keep the sports field better manageable. We are happy to think along about the right combination of measures for your facility.

Which scraper mat is most suitable depends on the function, location and how it is used. Important questions include, for example, where the mat will be placed, how many people walk over it every day, whether the mat is located inside or outside, and how the mat needs to be maintained.

The size, walking direction, dirt collection, colour and placement also play a role. W&H can advise on the right version and dimensions so the scraper mat fits well with the situation on site.

A scraper mat works best when it is placed in a logical spot in the walking route. At artificial turf fields, this is often directly at the access gate or exit of the field. The direction of walking must run as well as possible over the scraper profiles.

We can also help think about the placement of scraper mats. We look at the routing, available space, connection to the field and practical feasibility.

There are different types of scraper mats, such as scraper mats for access gates, cleaning mats, shoe brushes and versions with recessed dirt collection. The right choice depends on the location, use and purpose of the mat.

Brush mats are available in different sizes. Depending on the situation, you can look at the right length, width and section layout, so that the mat fits well within the walkway route or entrance gate.

Yes, depending on the design there are different color options. This way, the brush mat can better match the look and feel of the sports park, the facility, or the existing layout.

Brush mats are mainly used at access gates of artificial turf fields, entrances of sports facilities, changing room areas, schools and buildings where dirt tracking in or the spread of infill needs to be limited.

A brush mat with dirt collection captures infill, sand and dirt better. This prevents this material from being spread further and makes it easier to remove during maintenance.

Pay attention, among other things, to the function, location, walking direction, dimensions, dirt collection, maintenance and desired service life. We can help determine which brush mat best fits your situation.

No, brush mats and shoe brushes are also suitable for schools, public buildings, business locations and other places where dirt tracking in needs to be limited.
