Cable Cover Safety Mat – White Body with High-Vis Red Warning Border
Trailing cables across floors are one of the most common causes of workplace trips and falls — a hazard that is both easily preventable and legally significant under Health and Safety at Work legislation. This cable cover safety mat protects cables running across pedestrian paths while clearly marking the hazard zone with its high-contrast white and red warning border design. The non-slip rubber backing holds the mat firmly on hard floors, and the cable channels running beneath the mat protect cables from compression, abrasion, and accidental disconnection. A quick, effective solution for offices, events, construction sites, and warehouses. From Rubber Matting Direct with free UK delivery.

Buying Guide
Cable mats are available in single-channel and multi-channel versions, and in various lengths to suit different crossing distances. For a standard office aisle crossing, a 2–3 channel mat of 0.9–1.5 m length covers most requirements. For heavy-duty applications with large-diameter cables or air hoses, check the channel dimensions against your cable specifications before ordering. The white/red version provides the highest visibility and is most suitable for safety-critical public-area applications.
Installation & Care
Install: Lay mat across the cable path, open the cable channels (typically hinged or removable covers), route cables through, and replace covers. The non-slip backing holds the mat without tape. For permanent installations, secure with mat clips or double-sided tape.
Care: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. The PVC compound is washable and resistant to standard floor cleaning products.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a cable mat to comply with UK Health & Safety legislation?
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 require employers to manage trip hazards, which includes trailing cables. Cable mats are a recognised practical control measure. They don't replace the need for proper cable management planning but are an effective mitigation for temporary or unavoidable floor-level cables.
What is the maximum cable diameter the channels accommodate?
Standard cable mat channels accommodate cables up to approximately 10 mm diameter per channel. Cables larger than this (industrial power feeds, 32A+ cables) require heavy-duty cable ramp systems. Contact us for large cable ramp options.
