It is not necessary to glue the tiles down thanks to the adhesive system. It is recommended to secure them with a light aluminium frame to prevent overall movement of the mat.
Preparation prior to installation:
Acclimatise the TrakMat LYON for at least 24 hours prior to installation by placing them, boxes open, on a flat surface in the room in which they will be installed. If possible, keep the room closed to allow for an ambient temperature of between 15°c and 25°c.
• The screed needs to be even and level with a uniform depth across the full area of the recess within 1mm.
• The depth of the recess should be within a tolerance of 1mm of the thickness of the mat to be installed. If the mat well is any deeper, a non-elastic underlay must be inserted to reduce the depth to the suitable height of 14 mm.
• All debris needs to be removed prior to installation. The recess should be free of dust and therefore vacuum cleaning prior to installation is recommended, using a brush is insufficient.
• Mats cannot be installed in active entrances as the recess needs to remain clean for adhesives to bond properly. The unnecessary disturbance of the process of the mat installation could hinder the outcome of the quality of the installed mat.
• Mats cannot be installed over wet or uncured screeds due to the presence of excessive moisture that would render the bonding agents ineffective.
Cutting the tiles :
To finish the room, the carpet tiles will in most cases have to be cut to measure by means of a Romus cutter knife. TrakMat LYON are cut on the backing.
Gluing the mat inside the recess :
The hot-melt adhesive, placed upside down of the tile, is repositionable and allows good adhesion to the floor, especially in case of heavy traffic with wheels.
