When you have invested your time, your commitment and your money into creating the ideal office, you’ll aim to take all steps necessary to protect it. Your floors whether carpeted or hard floor are often one of the biggest investments your business will make and this is where chair mats come in handy. Most office floor damage is caused by the rolling and constant movement of office chairs, and also by footwear. With the use of chair mats you can facilitate all chair movement, protecting the underlying office floor from the wear and tear that is inevitable with an office full of people. At Office 365 we offer chair mats for both hard floors and carpeted floors and in a range of different sizes and shapes. Our chair mats will undoubtedly increase the lifetime of your floors whilst also providing a quiet, flat surface for swivel chairs. Plus, with the use of our mats, your floors will stay looking as beautiful as the day they were laid.

The office job provides the perfect environment for the classic ‘spinny chair’ manoeuvre which takes place in offices across the globe. In between calls, on tea breaks, lunch breaks or when supposed to be working, the spinning chair move is a very common occurrence. In fact, some people may even class it as a hobby! Take a look at the facebook page Spinning Around on Office Chairs which is a club dedicated to those who love spinning chairs or ‘office chairs’! Blimey, what is the world coming to?

So while your staff are all ‘busy’ wheeling and spinning away on their office chairs, your poor floor will be suffering the consequences no matter whether it’s carpeted or hard floor. This is a cost none of us can afford, especially during this economic crisis, so why not protect your floors with a chair mat?

A chair mat is basically a flat piece of material which is placed beneath your chair protecting the floor from wear and tear when the chair moves around. Some chair mats have even been developed to prevent the build-up of electrostatic charges which could otherwise come as a nasty shock! Office 365 have a fantastic range of chair mats which are available in all shapes and sizes, in different materials, and for either carpets, hard floors, or both! Take for example our Computex range which is a brand by Floortex. These anti-static chair mats and general floor mats protect against electrostatic charges from electrical appliances and components such as computers, copying machines, fax machines and medical technology equipment. They provide total static protection for you and your machines. The range has been developed with a friendly gripper back for carpets and a smooth back option for hard floors both of which ensuring the mat stays firmly in place. Constant movement can create electrical charges and will inevitably shorten the life of your hardware. These electrical charges will also attract a high quantity of dust that will seriously damage your equipment. The Computex chair mat is available in PVC only and provides total static protection for you and your machines! The Computex Chair Mat pictured features the following;

• Rectangular shape with lip
• Gripper for low pile carpet
• Size: 1150 x 1340mm
• 31% off
