Installation

Birrus Installation Service Available

Birrus Matting Systems require and internal recess depth of 12mm or 20mm. Standard Birrus matwell frames are fabricated using aluminium alloy, brass and stainless-steel angle for compatibility with our mats.

Place angle in the recess and set angles level with adjoining floor surfaces. Glue in or screw fix as required. Contractors are advised, to ensure proper performance of the entire assembly it is absolutely necessary that base of matwell is formed to a level plane, using an engineered screed. We do not recommend sand and cement screed as it will break up over time.

Stepped profile requires a minimum of 10mm clearance if a door is to pass over the mat

Care & Maintenance

Coir inserts should be vacuumed regularly to remove dirt, grit and loose fibres which collect in treads.
Replacement of inserts is a simple job carried out in-situ. A full range of inserts are available from your local distributor.
Restore lustre to ribbed aluminium sections by lightly rubbing over with abrasive wool.

COCAMAT Features

An Ethical Choice

COCAMAT is manufactured using sustainably harvested Coir, made from coconut fibres. This industry provides a vital source of employment in rural Sri Lanka.  

Quality Construction

A high-quality matting frame is manufactured in Australia from a 6000-series aluminium alloy to give a hard-wearing and corrosion-resistant finish.

An Efficient System

The raised profile of the Coir inserts provides effective “brushing” of passing shoes to remove dirt and moisture to protect internal floors.

Tailor-Made

All COCAMAT systems are custom-made to your specifications, ensuring the right fit and a high-quality outcome for your entranceway, no matter what the size or shape.

Colour Options

The Coir inserts are available in the natural honey colour or can be dyed black to give an alternative finish to complement the building’s colour scheme.

Anodised Options

A 15-micron anodised coating can be applied to the extrusions in Clear, Precious Gold, Antique Bronze or Midnight Black, to give a different finish and further protect the matting frame.
