What Are Safety Message Mats?
Safety message mats are non-slip floor mats printed with workplace health and safety warnings, procedural reminders or safety symbols. They are placed in corridors, at entry points, near hazardous equipment and in any high-traffic zone where WHS reminders are needed most.
They serve two functions at once. As a mat, they trap dirt, dust and moisture and provide a non-slip surface underfoot. As a communication tool, they deliver a safety message at the exact moment and location it is most relevant, when a worker is moving through a risk area.
SafeWork Australia recognises matting as a valid control measure for preventing slips, trips and falls. Using safety message mats supports your obligations under Australian workplace health and safety legislation.

Where Safety Mats Make the Biggest Difference
Warehouses and Industrial Facilities
Warehouses, loading docks and manufacturing plants carry significant slip, trip and fall risk from heavy foot traffic, forklifts, spills and uneven surfaces. Safety message mats at entry points, transition zones and workstation areas reinforce WHS procedure and reduce incident risk across the facility. Pair them with anti-fatigue mats at fixed workstations for complete floor coverage.
Commercial Kitchens and Food Facilities
Commercial kitchens are wet, fast-moving environments where slip hazards are constant. Safety message mats at kitchen entries, prep area transitions and service zones carry relevant messages and provide reliable non-slip grip for staff working under pressure.
Offices and Common Areas
Office buildings, stairwells and shared corridors benefit from safety message mats at entry points and wet-weather transition zones. Watch Your Step and Safety Starts Here messages are practical reminders that cost-effectively reduce slip risk in everyday environments.
Schools, Healthcare and Community Facilities
Schools, hospitals, aged care facilities and community centres serve vulnerable populations where slip incidents carry serious consequences. Safety message mats at entrances, wet areas and corridors provide both physical protection and visible safety culture to staff, visitors and the public.
Available Size
Our safety message mats are available in 85 x 145cm (5 x 3 feet). This size is suited to doorways, corridor entry points and workstation zones.

Why Rent Instead of Buy?
Purchased safety message mats degrade quickly under regular use and heavy foot traffic. Once the message fades or the surface flattens, the mat stops doing its job. In-house cleaning rarely restores performance or print quality.
With a Prestige rental arrangement:
- Mats are replaced before they become worn, faded or ineffective
- Professional industrial laundering keeps every mat performing properly
- No upfront capital cost, just a regular hire fee
- Scale up or down at any time, no break fees
- Your team focuses on safety, not mat maintenance
- A different safety message. Every visit. Every mat.
