Slip-resistant Heronrib matting has been arranged around several pools at Santander’s Marisma Wellness Centre.

The matting, which is manufactured by Plastex in the UK and America, was recommended for installation by the company’s Spanish distributor, Decoplastics.

170 metres of PVC walkways were supplied in 10 metre rolls, to ensure safe access to the pools. To minimise disruption throughout the centre, the Heronrib matting was laid overnight; the wellness facilities were open for business, as usual, at 6am the following morning.
