Cintas launches hospitality mat system

by Shane Henson — January 18, 2012—Hotel facilities managers may be interested to learn about Cintas Corporation’s new comprehensive hospitality mat system, designed to ensure hotel floors are safe, protected and visibly clean—something that both hotel visitors and employees will be thankful for.

Designed specifically for the hospitality industry, Cintas’ hotel matting system provides rental, direct purchase and custom mat options appropriate for front and back-of-the-house operations. Hotels can customize their system to include one or all of the programs for convenient, cost-effective protection. From mats designed for revolving doors and unique entryways to mats suited for poolside areas, Cintas has the appropriate system to improve the image of any property, the company’s management says.

Within the new hospitality mat system, hoteliers have the opportunity to select from the following options:

• Rental Program: Cintas’ rental mat service captures contaminants and moisture before customers track it through a hotel, keeping floors dry and clean. The program includes prompt and reliable pick-up, cleaning and delivery on a routine basis. Cintas’ service reduces upfront inventory costs and ensures mats won’t become saturated with contaminants. The mats are designed to protect all essential areas including entrance zones, high risk zones, high traffic zones and productivity zones.
  
• Custom Mat Program: Cintas can customize and install any mat style to fit any size or shape. A Cintas representative will conduct an assessment to recommend the best size and installation method. Hoteliers often need custom mats for inside and outside lobby entrances, revolving doors, recessed and obstructed areas. Popular styles include revolving door cut outs, angle cuts and large lobby mats. Cintas can design mats to lay loose with edging or glue them down for permanent installation.
