About Maximum Matting
Jaymart's strength is breadth — hundreds of specialist floorings, especially entrance systems. Maximum Matting goes the other way, concentrating on the standing-fatigue and static-control jobs and supplying them with depth rather than range.
For full-shift standing we'd recommend the European-made M2; the M3 and M4 cover ESD benches and floors, and UK-made M5 tiles handle modular industrial layouts. Each ships with published spec sheets, a RAMS pack and a CAD drawing where you need one.
