PEM High Traffic Matting: Smart. Safe. Sustainable.

We believe the great Confucius said it best: “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” On behalf of the entire PEM Surface Creations team, we echo these sentiments. Why wouldn’t we? We travel near and far supplying slip-resistant matting to some of the most luxurious resorts in the world.

Recently, the fine folks at The Sea Pines Resort contacted us to repair their pier walkway that is overlooked by their historic Harbour Town Lighthouse. After nearly 25 years of exposure to high foot traffic and climatic conditions, the pier lumber had grown weathered and worn. Exposed nails and splinters were becoming a growing concern for this coastal attraction.

Our President, Bob Amelung, was flown out to not only evaluate the situation, but collaborate with the Director of Facilities to ensure he and his crew were comfortable with PEM installation techniques.

Our solution, you ask? After careful consideration, we decided upon the PEM High Traffic Chocolate Brown Matting. This specific matting is designed to withstand high levels of foot traffic as well as the wrath of Mother Nature.

Before the 4 man crew began laying the 6,000 sq ft of matting, we went through and flipped the lumber to create a smooth surface that would afford guests comfort and safety.  Over the next 3 days Bob supervised the installation process serving as technical adviser for the crew, thus giving management the assurance the matting was installed correctly.
