Interlocking Mats and Edging

The COBA Flexi-Deck tile is a modular, interlocking PVC floor tile designed for use in wet or frequently washed-down areas. Each tile features a consistent pattern of drainage holes across the surface, allowing water to pass through freely rather than pool underfoot. The bevelled edges around all four sides create a smooth, low-profile join between tiles and eliminate the raised lips that can catch feet or cleaning equipment.

In commercial environments, these tiles are commonly used in wet prep areas, dishwash zones, pot wash bays, changing areas, and anywhere staff are likely to be working on a wet or damp floor for extended periods. The textured surface provides a meaningful improvement in underfoot grip compared to bare sealed concrete or quarry tile, which matters during busy service when staff are moving quickly.

The practical case for using these tiles typically comes down to a few points:

• Flexible PVC construction conforms slightly to uneven floor surfaces
• Drainage holes prevent standing water accumulating underfoot
• Bevelled edges on all sides reduce trip hazard at the tile perimeter
• Tiles can be lifted and cleaned individually or as a section
• Red colouring assists visibility in dimly lit areas and colour-zoning workflows

Being PVC, these tiles are straightforward to maintain — they can be lifted out for deep cleaning and are resistant to the cleaning chemicals commonly used in commercial kitchens. The pack of nine covers a modest area, so it is worth calculating your floor coverage requirements before ordering, particularly if you are fitting a larger washdown bay or a full changing room.

These tiles suit smaller zones or targeted problem areas well. For larger continuous floor runs, it is worth considering whether a higher-volume order or a more heavy-duty matting solution would serve better long-term. If you are unsure what is right for your site, we are happy to talk it through.

COBA Flexi-Deck tiles are interlocking PVC drainage tiles designed for use in consistently wet underfoot conditions. Each 300 x 300mm tile clicks together to form a continuous, stable surface over existing flooring, making them a practical choice for pool surrounds, shower rooms, changing areas, and wet-room corridors in commercial and leisure facilities.

The raised grid profile lifts foot traffic clear of standing water, while the open drainage pattern allows liquids to pass through and disperse beneath the tile surface rather than pooling on top. In environments where wet floors are unavoidable, that drainage action makes a meaningful difference to day-to-day slip risk. The bevelled tile edges reduce the lip height at joins and perimeters, which helps minimise trip hazards where the tiled area meets the surrounding floor.

The PVC construction makes these tiles straightforward to maintain. They can be lifted individually if a section needs cleaning or replacing, and the material resists moisture, mould, and the kinds of cleaning agents typically used in commercial leisure environments.

• Interlocking design allows flexible layout and easy reconfiguration
• Drainage holes prevent standing water on the tile surface
• Raised profile keeps foot traffic above pooled moisture
• Bevelled edges reduce trip hazard at tile perimeters
• Individual tiles can be removed for targeted cleaning or replacement

A pack of nine covers a modest area and is well suited to smaller wet zones, shower cubicle surrounds, or supplementing an existing installation. For larger areas, multiple packs can be combined. These tiles are suitable for light to moderate commercial foot traffic; very high-volume or heavy-duty industrial wet areas may warrant a more robust solution.

If you are unsure how many packs you need for your space, or whether this tile is the right fit for your specific environment, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

The COBA Comfort Lock is an anti-fatigue safety mat designed for use in commercial kitchens and food preparation areas where staff spend extended periods standing at a workstation. It provides a cushioned surface underfoot that helps reduce the physical strain associated with prolonged standing, while the bevelled edges around the perimeter reduce trip risk where the mat meets the floor surface.

In a working kitchen environment, staff fatigue is a genuine operational concern. Standing on hard flooring for a full service shift contributes to tiredness, loss of concentration, and discomfort — all of which can affect both performance and safety. An anti-fatigue mat positioned at key workstations, such as prep benches, pass areas, or wash stations, helps to address this in a straightforward and low-cost way. The mat conforms to slip resistance standard EN 13552 category R10, providing a reliable grip surface in areas that may be subject to splashes or minor spillage.

• Reduces fatigue and discomfort at standing workstations
• Bevelled safety edging reduces trip hazard at mat edges
• EN 13552 R10 slip resistance rating for wet and dry conditions
• Helps insulate staff from cold floor surfaces
• Supports concentration and posture during long shifts

Installation is straightforward — the mat sits directly on the floor without fixings and can be repositioned or removed for cleaning as needed. The interlocking design means multiple mats can be connected to cover longer runs, such as a full prep line or a commercial dishwash area. At 5kg, it is practical to lift and move for daily cleaning routines.

This mat is well suited to smaller kitchens, single workstations, and operations looking to make a practical improvement to staff welfare without a significant outlay. For larger areas or higher-footfall environments, a heavier-duty or larger-format matting solution may be more appropriate.

If you are unsure how much matting coverage you need or which configuration suits your kitchen layout, we are happy to talk it through.

This bevelled edging strip is the purpose-made border trim for the COBA Deluxe anti-fatigue mat range. It fits along the exposed edges of the mat to create a gradual, ramped transition from the mat surface down to the floor, removing the raised lip that would otherwise be present at the mat perimeter.

In busy kitchen and front-of-house environments, unsecured or abrupt mat edges are a common trip hazard — particularly during service when staff are moving quickly between stations. The bevelled profile addresses this directly, reducing the risk of catches and trips at the mat border without requiring any additional fixings or adhesives. The black colourway matches the standard COBA Deluxe mat and helps maintain a consistent, professional appearance on the floor.

Practically, this edging also helps extend the working life of the mat itself. Without border protection, the edges of anti-fatigue matting can curl or degrade under repeated trolley or foot traffic. The trim holds the mat edge flat and in place, which is particularly relevant in areas with regular equipment movement or high pedestrian flow.

This strip is sold as a single length and is intended specifically for use with the COBA Deluxe mat. Operators fitting mats around irregular station layouts or L-shaped runs will need to assess the number of strips required per installation, accounting for all exposed edges rather than just the long sides.

If you are planning a mat installation across a larger kitchen area or need guidance on edge configuration for a specific layout, our team is happy to help you work through the requirements before you order.

This black bevelled edging strip is designed specifically for use with the COBA Deluxe interlocking mat system. It provides a tapered border along the exposed edges of a mat installation, reducing the abrupt height change between the mat surface and the surrounding floor. Without edging strips in place, raised mat edges present a genuine trip hazard during busy service — particularly in high-traffic areas where staff are moving quickly with hot or heavy items.

In a working kitchen environment, mat edges take a great deal of incidental contact from trolley wheels, footfall, and cleaning equipment. This edging strip is built to handle that kind of daily wear while maintaining a neat, flush appearance at the mat perimeter. The bevelled profile allows smooth transitions for wheeled equipment passing over the mat boundary, which matters in kitchens where trolleys and porter's barrows are in regular use.

• Reduces trip risk at mat edges during busy service periods
• Compatible with the COBA Deluxe interlocking mat system
• Bevelled profile supports smooth trolley and wheeled equipment passage
• Durable enough for daily commercial kitchen use
• Maintains a tidy, professional finish at mat perimeters

It is worth noting that this edging strip is a finishing component rather than a standalone safety product — it is only effective when used as part of a correctly assembled COBA Deluxe mat layout. The number of strips required will depend on your total mat coverage and how many exposed edges your installation produces.

If you are planning a larger mat installation or are unsure how many edging strips your layout will need, we are happy to help you work it through before you order.

The COBA Deluxe Mat Connector in black is an accessory component designed for use with the COBA Deluxe interlocking safety mat range. It is used to join mat sections together or to finish edges, helping to maintain a secure, flat mat layout on commercial kitchen floors.

If you are unsure which connector type is right for your mat configuration, or how many connectors you need for your floor area, feel free to get in touch and we can help you work it out.

This is the middle section in COBA's interlocking anti-fatigue mat system, designed to form part of a continuous floor covering across standing workstations in commercial kitchens, prep rooms, bars, and service counters. Made from rubber, it connects with compatible edge and corner pieces from the same system to create a stable, properly bordered mat run sized to the specific area you need to cover.

Anti-fatigue matting is one of the more straightforward interventions available to kitchen operators, but its effect on staff welfare and sustained performance during a long service is genuine. Hard tile or concrete floors accelerate fatigue in ways that build across a shift — affecting concentration and pace well before the end of service. Rubber construction gives this mat the durability to hold its structure under sustained use without compressing flat, and the material resists grease, food debris, and the cleaning chemicals typically used in a commercial kitchen environment.

Practical benefits for operators include:

• Interlocking format allows the mat run to be extended or reconfigured as the layout requires
• Rubber resists grease, water, and common kitchen cleaning chemicals
• No adhesive or fixings needed — the interlocking system holds sections in place under normal use
• Individual sections can be lifted, cleaned beneath, and repositioned without tools
• Middle piece format provides seamless coverage across the main working run

Before laying, it is worth ensuring the floor surface beneath is level and clear of debris — any unevenness will affect how the sections sit together and may cause minor lift at the joins. This piece is intended to be used as part of a larger configuration with edge and corner sections; it is not designed to function as a standalone mat.

This mat is well suited to any commercial kitchen, bar, or food service environment where staff work at a fixed station for sustained periods. For narrower or shorter runs, smaller pieces within the same system may be more appropriate. For large production kitchens or areas with active drainage requirements, it is worth considering whether an alternative mat format better fits the space.

If you are working out how many pieces you need to cover a particular run, or which edge and corner sections to include, we are happy to help you put the configuration together before you order.

This is the end piece component for COBA's modular rubber anti-fatigue matting system. It is designed to finish the perimeter of a matting run with a bevelled edge profile, removing the raised lip that would otherwise be left by a field tile and reducing the risk of trips at the mat boundary. At 14mm thick and constructed from solid rubber, it sits firmly on the floor and stays in position under the daily foot traffic of a working kitchen.

Anti-fatigue matting is a practical welfare measure wherever kitchen staff are required to stand at a fixed workstation for extended periods. Prep sections, pastry benches, dishwash areas, and service counters are all common applications. The solid rubber construction is well suited to the wet, greasy, and chemically active environment of a commercial kitchen — it resists oils and cleaning agents and does not deteriorate in the way foam or composite matting tends to over time. At 11kg, the end piece has enough weight to stay put without anchoring.

Key practical advantages of this end piece include:

• Bevelled profile eliminates raised edges at mat perimeters, reducing trip risk
• Interlocking format allows the mat run to be extended or reconfigured without specialist tools
• Solid rubber resists cooking oils, degreasers, and standing water
• Firm, supportive underfoot feel helps reduce lower limb fatigue over long shifts
• Individual pieces lift out easily for cleaning underneath during deep-cleans

Because this is an end piece rather than a full field tile, the number required will depend on the shape and configuration of your matting layout. Straight runs need fewer end pieces than L-shaped or irregular areas. It is worth planning the layout before ordering to avoid gaps in coverage or surplus stock.

This matting system is suited to kitchens of any size and any service type where staff welfare and floor safety are taken seriously. If you are covering a large or awkward area and want to work out the right tile and end piece quantities before committing to an order, our team is glad to help you think it through.

The COBA anti-fatigue mat is a solid rubber floor mat designed to reduce physical strain on staff working at fixed standing positions for extended periods. At 900mm x 1200mm it covers a practical footprint for a single operator — typically suited to prep benches, dishwash areas, bar service points, or countertop cooking lines.

Fatigue from standing on hard kitchen floors accumulates steadily across a long service. Anti-fatigue matting works by introducing a small degree of flex underfoot, which encourages subtle muscle movement and helps maintain circulation. Over the course of a shift, the practical effect is reduced physical fatigue, which tends to support concentration and consistent output — particularly across back-to-back services.

The rubber construction holds up well in the kitchen environment, resisting oils, water, and the cleaning chemicals used in routine kitchen hygiene. It handles dropped equipment and trolley traffic without deteriorating. The edged finish provides a clean, defined border rather than an exposed bevelled ramp, which makes it easier to mop around and keeps the mat correctly positioned during service. At 11kg, it stays in place under normal use without fixings, and is straightforward to lift and clean beneath during deep-clean periods.

• Rubber construction resists oils, water, and common kitchen cleaning chemicals
• Edged profile provides a clean border and discourages movement during service
• Weight keeps the mat in position on smooth hard floors without fixings
• Easy to lift and reposition for cleaning underneath
• Suitable for smooth, hard floor surfaces typical of commercial kitchens

This size is well matched to a single fixed workstation. For longer bench runs or a full dishwash bay, it is worth considering whether multiple mats or a larger format would provide more complete coverage. This mat is not intended for use on uneven or textured floor surfaces where it may not sit flat.

If you are fitting out several stations or want to talk through the right matting configuration for your kitchen layout, the team is glad to help.

The COBA anti-fatigue mat is a solid rubber matting solution designed for kitchen and food service environments where staff spend extended periods standing in one position. The edged border design keeps the mat flat and stable underfoot, reducing trip hazards at the perimeter — a practical consideration in busy kitchen aisles and prep stations.

Standing on hard floors for several hours at a stretch contributes to fatigue, discomfort, and reduced concentration — all of which have a direct bearing on kitchen productivity and service quality. Anti-fatigue matting works by providing a slightly cushioned surface that encourages subtle movement in the leg muscles, improving circulation and reducing the physical strain associated with prolonged static standing.

In practical terms, this mat suits individual workstations: a prep bench, a pass, a washing-up position, or any fixed point where a single operator works for sustained periods. The rubber construction makes it reasonably robust for food service use and straightforward to clean down at the end of service.

• Edged borders reduce trip risk at mat edges
• Rubber material holds position on hard kitchen floors
• Suited to individual prep, washing, or service stations
• Simple to lift, clean underneath, and reposition

It is worth noting that at this size, the mat is suited to a single-person workstation rather than covering a wider run of floor. For kitchen sections with multiple operators working side by side, a longer mat or a modular matting layout would be a more practical arrangement.

If you are fitting out several stations or need guidance on the right mat type and size for a specific kitchen layout, our team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Coba Black Holed Interlocking Drainage Tile is a heavy-duty modular floor tile designed for wet areas in commercial kitchens and food service environments. Its perforated surface allows liquid to drain through freely rather than pool underfoot, which helps keep the working surface drier during service and makes the tile well suited to regular washdown routines.

In practical kitchen use, these tiles are most commonly placed in dishwash stations, glass wash areas, food prep sections, and behind bar counters — anywhere staff are standing for extended periods on floors that are regularly wet. The combination of drainage and a slip-resistant surface helps reduce both the risk of slips and the physical fatigue that comes with long shifts on hard flooring.

The interlocking format gives operators flexibility over coverage. Tiles connect together to fill areas of almost any shape or size, and the accompanying perforated ramp strips can be cut to fit corners and irregular edges without specialist tools. A few practical points worth noting:

• Interlocking system covers non-standard or irregular floor areas without cutting tiles
• Perforated ramp strips trim to fit corners and angled edges
• Slip-resistant surface reduces risk in consistently wet underfoot conditions
• Each tile can be lifted and repositioned for thorough cleaning underneath
• Suitable as a standalone tile or as part of a larger connected layout

These tiles are a practical choice for kitchens and food service operations that need a flexible drainage and anti-fatigue flooring solution without committing to a fixed installation. For sites with heavy trolley movement or frequent forklift access, it is worth considering whether a more substantial modular flooring system would be a better fit for that environment.

If you are working out how many tiles you need to cover a particular area, or you want to talk through whether this format suits your kitchen layout, we are glad to help.

The COBA Rubber Safe Interlocking Middle Mat is a solid rubber, anti-fatigue safety mat designed for use in commercial kitchens, food preparation areas, and other environments where staff spend extended periods standing on hard floors. It forms part of an interlocking mat system, with this piece intended for the centre of a configured layout — bordered by compatible edge and corner sections to create a seamless, trip-free surface.

In a working kitchen environment, prolonged standing on concrete or tiled floors contributes to fatigue, which in turn affects concentration and increases the risk of accidents during busy service periods. A rubber safety mat placed in high-dwell areas — in front of prep benches, cooking lines, or warewashing stations — provides underfoot cushioning and a consistent, slip-resistant surface, even where water, oils, or food debris are present.

• Slip-resistant rubber surface helps reduce slip risk in wet or greasy conditions
• Anti-fatigue construction reduces strain during long standing periods
• Interlocking design allows flexible configuration to suit the work area
• Rubber construction is straightforward to clean and tolerates heavy daily use
• Black finish is practical in a commercial kitchen setting

Installation is straightforward — these mats sit directly on the floor without adhesive or fixings. Because this is a middle section, it should be used alongside appropriate edge and corner pieces to eliminate raised borders that could create a trip hazard. At 700mm wide by 800mm deep, a single mat covers a practical standing area, and multiple units can be joined to extend coverage along a run of equipment.

This mat is well suited to small to medium commercial kitchens, cafés, and food service operations looking to improve staff welfare and floor safety without significant outlay. For larger kitchens or areas requiring heavier-duty coverage, it is worth considering a higher-specification mat system with greater load tolerance.

If you are unsure how many sections you need to cover your kitchen layout, or which edge pieces to pair with this mat, we are happy to help you work it out before you order.

These rubber end mats are designed to finish off an interlocking mat system neatly at the perimeter, creating a ramped edge that reduces trip hazards and keeps the matting in place during busy service periods. Made from rubber, they pair with compatible interlocking centre tiles to form a complete anti-fatigue flooring layout wherever staff are required to stand for extended periods.

In commercial kitchen environments, fatigue is a genuine operational concern. Staff working long shifts at prep stations, wash-up areas, or service lines benefit from the cushioning underfoot that a proper mat system provides. The rubber construction holds up well under heavy footfall, resists grease and moisture common in catering environments, and is straightforward to lift and clean beneath — an important consideration for kitchen hygiene compliance.

• Slip-resistant rubber surface reduces underfoot hazards in wet or greasy conditions
• Ramped edge profile minimises trip risk at mat boundaries
• Interlocking design keeps mats stable and prevents shifting during service
• Rubber construction resists moisture, grease, and general kitchen wear
• Easy to lift individually for cleaning underneath

These end mats are best suited to kitchens where an interlocking mat system is already in use or planned, as they are specifically designed as border pieces rather than standalone mats. They work well in straight-run configurations at the edge of a prep or service station. For larger areas or irregular floor layouts, it is worth considering the quantity of both centre tiles and edge pieces before ordering to ensure full coverage without gaps.

If you are putting together a matting layout for a new kitchen or replacing an existing system and want to make sure you order the right combination of pieces, the team is happy to help you work through what you need.

The COBA Rubber Paving Tile is a solid rubber floor tile designed for outdoor use where durability and underfoot safety matter. At 900 x 900mm per tile, it covers ground efficiently and is well suited to commercial and public-facing environments where foot traffic is consistent and surfaces need to hold up under varying weather conditions.

Rubber paving tiles of this type are commonly used in outdoor areas attached to commercial premises — covered walkways, loading bay surrounds, rear access paths, outdoor seating terraces, and similar surfaces where a hard-wearing, weather-resistant finish is needed. The rubber construction absorbs impact and provides meaningful slip resistance underfoot, which is a practical consideration in any external area subject to rain or wet conditions.

From an operational standpoint, these tiles offer several straightforward advantages:

• Resistant to heavy foot traffic and surface wear over time
• Provides a degree of cushioning underfoot, reducing fatigue in standing areas
• Suitable for outdoor use where temperature variation and moisture are factors
• Laid in a tile format, making repairs or replacements to individual sections straightforward
• Available in black, which maintains a clean, professional appearance in commercial settings

Installation is straightforward for most outdoor surfaces. The tiles are intended for level or near-level ground and can typically be laid without adhesive depending on the application, though fixed installations benefit from appropriate bonding. Consider the condition of the base surface before laying — uneven or degraded substrates will affect long-term performance.

These tiles are best suited to businesses needing a practical, low-maintenance outdoor flooring solution for moderate to heavy pedestrian use. If you are covering a particularly large area or require specialist anti-fatigue or chemical-resistant properties, it is worth discussing your specific requirements with us before ordering.
