Insulated mats, electrical safety
Electrical safety mats work by insulating electrical current. Insulation prevents electricity from flowing through, which stops the current from grounding and, therefore, from electrocuting you. It is both important and a legal requirement for electricians to be equipped with the right matting, but other industries have less defined regulations. If you work or play with electricity at all, an electrical safety mat can keep you safe.
Welding mats stop sparks flying
Welders also work with live electrical circuits, so welding floor mats are as important for electrical safety as electricians mats. As well as electrocution, anyone that works with electricity needs to be wary of burns. Sparks are a common cause of burns, both in themselves and from their potential to start a larger fire. Welding mats extinguish sparks and prevent electrical currents from circuiting.
Non-conductive electrical safety matting 1000v and more
Our electrical safety mats can protect up to 30,000v. As well as protecting you from electricity, they all feature a non slip underside that helps to keep the mat in place on the floor. The weld safe non-conductive electrical safety switchboard matting also withstands molten metal and sparks up to 1500 degrees Celsius for up to 3 seconds. It also has a solid surface that is easily cleaned with a quick wipe.
Protection Where It Matters Most
Electrical safety mats block live current from reaching the ground, giving electricians and other workers a reliable layer of insulation. The material stops electricity from completing its circuit, reducing the risk of accidental shocks. No matter the voltage, safety matting forms the first line of defence in any high-risk work area.

Built for High-Voltage Environments
Switchboard rooms, industrial plants, and repair bays all deal with equipment carrying live current. Electrical matting provides consistent protection across the entire floor surface, shielding workers even when handling exposed wires or faulty machinery. High-voltage work demands reliable barriers, and certified matting meets that need.
Designed for Electricians and Welders
Electricians rely on insulated mats to work safely on live systems. Welders face similar risks, with sparks and electrical currents creating hazardous conditions underfoot. Electrical safety mats designed for welding environments handle both risks, resisting electrical flow while also extinguishing stray sparks before they spread.
Safety Where You Need It Most
Electrical matting isn’t limited to large-scale worksites. Home workshops, tool sheds, and hobby garages also benefit from non-conductive flooring. Even casual electrical work, from fixing appliances to rewiring lights, carries risk. Adding a safety mat gives peace of mind, protecting from accidental contact whenever tools come out.
