TACKY MATS 12.1 12.1 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT TACKY MATS General Information Tacky mats prevent the unintentional importation of large quantities of particles into the cleanroom on the soles of people's shoes. The combination of a washable permanent adhesive mat and a strongly adhesive peel off tacky mat offers the optimum protection and reduces the running costs. DASTMAT-100 permanently adhesive and washable This mat is mainly used for the initial, intensive pre-cleaning of the contact surface of the soles. Mostly it is used as first cleaning step before entering the cleanroom. Based on the soft material consistency the sole can be reached in places which are not covered when using the inflexible material of foil mats. DASTMAT-30, and DASTMAT-60 peel off tacky mats Strong adhesion and robust design make these mats ideal for the cleaning of soles, castors, etc. inside the transfer area. Frames and movable floor plates The frame for the foil tacky mats is used both as edge protection and as a ramp. The movable floor plate is designed for mobile applications of the foil tacky mats.

FRAMES FOR TACKY MATS Those frames are used both as edge protection and a ramp. Often they are also chosen for decorative reasons. As with the foil mats, the frames can also be tightly stuck down to the floor. The frames are equipped with a special non slip cover allowing a flexible use. Dimensions Material PU Art.-No. FLOOR PLATES FOR TACKY MATS Sometimes the peel-off mats have to be removed from the floor before all layers have been used. For these occasions we offer "movable" floor plates. The foil mats are not adhered anymore directly onto the floor, but on the upper side of these special...

FOIL MATS WITH MICROBIOCIDE Additional information for microbiological controlled areas When walking or pushing a trolley over tacky mats there are not only dust particles sticking to the mat, but also bacteria and fungi. Therefore a biocide has been added to the adhesive foil of our tacky mats, preventing growth of known bacteria and fungi. Below is a list of organisms against which the micro biocide is effective. This information has been provided by the manufacturer for which we cannot take any responsibility. Mats equipped with micro biocide see chapter 12.3. TACKY MATS For further information...
