Insulating Mat or Cork Flooring: What should you use on your factory floor?

Image
You can spot cork flooring in residential settings. It is one of the go-to choices of environmentally conscious homeowners. However, the question is whether it is suitable for factories. Factory floors include heavy foot traffic and adverse conditions. Besides, high-voltage areas require flooring with insulating properties. What would you choose? Insulating mats for electrical purposes or cork flooring? Comparison Between Insulating Mat and Cork Flooring Before moving further into the topic, let us understand the  Pros and Cons of Insulating Mat: Pros: Protective equipment: Insulating mats for electrical purposes are safety gear. Besides, they have non-conductive properties. This helps an insulating mat form a shield between the ground and a high-voltage source. As a result, an insulating mat can save you from short circuits, arc flashes, current leakage, and others. Anti-skid: Electrical safety mats may have a ribbed or dotted surface texture. Hence, this design increases the t...

Role of Electrical Insulating Rubber Mat in Research and Development Units

  Why is an electrical insulating rubber mat crucial in research and development units? Worried about your electrical safety during prototype developments? Do you know that an insulating mat can be a savior while testing your high-voltage systems?  Research and development units have different high-voltage applications. High-voltage applications are common during prototype development, testing, and other functions. There can be common power hazards like short circuits and arc flashes. As a result, researchers and developers are at risk of being exposed to electrical accidents.  What do they require to ensure electrical safety? An insulating mat ! Let us now check the Role of Electrical Insulating Rubber Mat in Research and Development Units An electrical insulating rubber mat is a safety gear. Owing to the atomic structure of rubber, it resists the free movement of electrons. Thus, it acts as a barrier between the ground and the voltage source. An insulating mat protects...

Ensuring Electrical Safety in Qatar Metro With Duratuf Electrical Insulating Rubber Mats

Image
  55.28% drop in worker accidents?  How could the Qatar Metro Railways get these results?  What does it have to do with Duratuf electrical insulating rubber mats? Duratuf insulating mat has been the a reliable protective equipment for the past 14 years. Its extraordinary insulating properties and durability have made it renowned in the market. It added value to the QIRP Project, as well. Let's take a look at the case study to know: Qatar Integrated Railway Project: The QIRP (Qatar Integrated Railway Project) aimed to expand its public transport network. This is based in the Greater Doha Area. Phase 1 included 35 stations. On the other hand, the other phase is planned to include 60 stations. This will make transportation convenient. However, with this plan, they could reduce the busy roads due to private transportation to a certain extent. They planned on connecting the Great Doha Areas, Al Wakrah-Mesaieed, and Al Khor. The primary purpose was to draw people to use public...
