	The need for floor protection is not always obvious, but
once you have seen the damage that can be caused by dirt and dust on a floor,
it's hard to ignore. So why would you want to protect your floors? Well, first
of all there are safety considerations - construction sites are one of the most
common places where accidents happen because people don't think about what
they're walking on. Secondly, if you have an office or retail space then having
dirty floors is just bad for business - customers will leave without even
thinking twice!</p><p>

	If you are looking for a floor protection product, then
there are many different options to choose from. For example,&nbsp;

in offices and exam halls to protect against dirt and dust.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/correx-sheets-120cm-x-240cm">Correx floor protection sheets</a> are
often used on construction sites to keep the ground dry while sticky tack mats
can be found in sports hall floors or under vending machines. The types of
products that you use will depend on your specific requirements but it is
important to make sure that they are appropriate for your needs before
purchasing them.</p><p>

	When you are looking for a floor protection product, it is
important to consider your specific needs and requirements. There are many
different types of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/hard-floor-surface-protection/">floor protection products</a> on the market, and they all have
their own special uses. For example, if you need something that can be easily
removed then Correx sheets could be the best choice as they can simply be
rolled up together with any dirt or dust on them. However, Ram Board might also
suit your purposes but this  would depend
on the amount of foot traffic that you need to protect against.</p><p>
	It is also important to consider where you will be using
your floor protection products as they are not suitable for all areas and if
used in an unsuitable area can damage floors depending on what product it is,
where it has been placed and its purpose. For example, some</p><p>

	Floor protection products are used to protect floors from
damage due to dirt, dust and shoes. They can also be used as a safety

to slip by accident. There is often a requirement for floor protection whether
it be for the construction of new buildings, refurbishment work where old

The answer is that it depends on the type or use for which you need a protective product. There are many different types of films, including decorative films, anti-graffiti films, and one way mirror film.</p><p><img src="/product_images/uploaded_images/window-glass-protection.png" style="background-color: initial; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; float: right; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px;" alt="Window glass protection" title="Window glass protection"></p><p>Glass is a material that can be used for many different things. It can be used to cover and protect your window, and it can also be used as an artistic medium for creative people.  Window film protection products can be applied to a variety of different types of glass. The two most common types are privacy films and decorative films. Privacy films will help prevent people from looking into your home or office through the windows, while decorative films come in a wide range of styles and colours that will give any space an artistic touch!</p><p><strong>Privacy Glass</strong></p><p>Privacy glass is one of the most popular types of glass utilised in homes and businesses. This will help prevent people from looking into your home or office through the windows, which can be very helpful when you want to keep any number of things private! It's important to note that not all window films are suitable for use with this type of glass however; it must be designed specifically for the purpose.</p><p><strong>Anti-Graffiti Films</strong></p><p>There are also some very specific uses for this product in public places where the glass may be exposed to harsh conditions. For example, anti-graffiti films can be used on shop windows or advertising displays which are at risk of being broken into by vandals with spray cans etc. These special coatings provide a protective barrier between the glass and graffiti.</p><p><strong>One-Way Mirror Film</strong></p><p>Sometimes it is necessary to be able to see out of a window, but not for people outside the building to be able to look in. These one-way mirror films are designed specifically for this purpose and work by allowing light through from inside while reducing visibility coming in. This type of film is often used on shop windows or glass surfaces where confidential information or discussions may take place.</p><p>Window film is a great way to protect your glass from scratches, dents and chips too! If you have ever accidentally sat on or banged into a window when it was closed then you know how quickly that can lead to damage. Window film will provide an added layer of protection against this type of accident occurring in the first place.</p><p>There are also a number of decorative window films available that provide an attractive and subtle way to dress up your windows without having to resort to replacement with new glass panes or blinds etc. Some people like the idea of using these types of products for branding purposes, such as in retail outlets where they can be used on shop windows to promote a new line of products.</p><p>If you have an older home in need of renovation, you can also use decorative window film on the inside surface in order to add privacy and style without having to spend money replacing all your windows with modern double glazing or renovating internal walls etc.</p><p>If you have any questions about which type might be best for your needs please contact us at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/">Trio Plus</a> on&nbsp;<a href="tel:01372747555" target="_blank">01372 747 555</a>.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>There are many great benefits of floor liners and it's good
to know what they are if you are unsure about buying one. Floor liners protect
your floors from scratches, scuffs, stains and damage from everyday wear and
tear. They provide an extra layer of protection against spills so that the
surface below is protected from being soaked up by the liner. If you have a pet
at home with long hair or dander on their feet then floor liners will help keep
those allergens off of your floor surfaces as well!</p><p><img src="/product_images/uploaded_images/foam-floor-liner.jpg" style="width: 262px; float: right; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px;" alt="Foam floorliner" title="Foam floorliner"></p><p>With the winter months fast approaching, we all know that we
will be spending a lot of time indoors. If you have hard floors in your home,
then you know how much of a mess can be created by spills and accidents. As you
walk around on your hard floor surfaces, it can be easy to track in dirt and
debris. There is a way to protect those floor surfaces with floor liner that
will make life easier for you! </p><p><strong>Floor Liner
Protection Benefits</strong></p><p>-&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/hard-floor-surface-protection/foam-floorliner">Foam floorliner</a> is made from many different materials but the
most common are rubber or plastic. </p><p>- You can easily install it on your hard floor surfaces with
little to no effort at all! </p><p>- They protect against dirt and spills as well as scratches
caused by other objects  that have been
dragged across the floor.</p><p><strong>Floor Liner
Installation Steps</strong></p><p>- Remove any furniture or items on top of the surface where
you will be installing floor liner. This includes appliances such as stoves,
microwaves, washers and dryers.</p><p>- Clean the surface using a non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse
thoroughly, then wipe with a clean cloth to remove any excess moisture or soap
residue left behind from cleaning. Allow it to air dry completely before
continuing installation of floor liner.</p><p>- Unroll the liner on top of the cleaned flooring surface
as  evenly as possible. Mark the long
side edge of where you will be cutting your liner to fit around objects such as
appliances or furniture with a pencil.</p><p>- Cut along this line using either an electric knife or
sharp utility knife and straightedge for best results, making sure not to stretch
the material when it is being cut.</p><p>- If there are  any
wrinkles or bubbles in the liner, carefully cut them out with a sharp edge to
create an even surface.</p><p>- Spray adhesive on all four corners of your new floor liner
and press it into place over the cleaned hardwood using a clean towel for
pressure as you do this. </p><p>- Continue along these steps until completion, adding more
sections of liner as needed.</p><p>If you are looking to protect your floors with a layer of
protection that is stylish and easy to install, then floor liner might be for
you. Order the product online at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/">Trio Plus</a> or call us with any enquiries on&nbsp;<a href="tel:01372747555" target="_blank">01372 747 555</a>.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>A Ram board is a piece of durable, heavy-duty plastic that can
be placed on the ground to protect it from wear and tear. This is an innovative
product that has been around for decades and continues to be used today! In
this blog post, we will explore ram boards: their history, how they work and
why ram boards are so important.</p><h2><img src="/product_images/uploaded_images/breathable-floor-protection.jpg" alt="breathable-floor-protection.jpg" style="background-color: initial; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; color: rgb(52, 49, 63);"><strong>Ram Board History</strong></h2><p>In 1989, a floor protection
product was developed by the company Ram Board. The Ram boards were an
innovative product that protected floors from being scratched or damaged while
people worked on them. This invention had a huge impact in many areas of work
which ultimately led to ram boards becoming even more popular! It is a product
that has changed the way we design homes, offices, and industrial buildings. If
you work in the construction industry, chances are that ram board has played an
important role in your life. </p><p><a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/ram-board-hard-floor-protection/">Ram Board</a> was originally created to safeguard flooring from
the intense demands of the film business. The product was featured in some
famous film sets which included Armageddon, Pirates of the Caribbean, Spider
Man, The Hulk and more. However, ram board was not only used on the big screen.
It soon became a staple of film industry and was introduced to several other
areas such as construction sites for new buildings, general floor protection in
factories or warehouses, trade shows and exhibitions that need heavy-duty
flooring protection from forklifts moving equipment around.</p><h3><strong>Ram Board Pro</strong></h3><p>As Ram Boards evolved into Ram
Board PRO, the product became more popular for its versatility. It has since
become a standard in floor protection and is used by many companies around the
world that are not related to film or entertainment at all! The product was
needed to meet the rigorous demands in construction sites where it has become a
lifesaver for contractors.</p><p>In an interview with ram board's inventor, we learned that ram
boards were originally used in the entertainment industry and it was one of his
biggest clients along with many others who needed floor protection for their
expensive equipment during filming or just because they loved having ram boards
around! The rest is history.</p><p>Ram Board is very similar to having large mouse pads on the
floor of your workspace or construction site. They are made from plastic and
have a sticky side that adheres directly to most surfaces so they don't move
easily when items are placed on them. They come in a variety of sizes and are
used for floor protection so they don't scratch the floors, which is especially
important when heavy equipment is being moved around.</p><p>Today Ram Board is still helping people protect their
equipment and floors. While it hasn't changed much since the 1980s, ram boards
are constantly evolving to help with new challenges that arise in construction
or even at home! The Ram board company also has a mission of giving back by
sponsoring local sports teams which we think is pretty cool. Another
interesting fact is that its logo was designed by the illustrator of Bugs
Bunny.</p><p><a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/">Trio Plus Distribution</a> are established Ram board suppliers in
the UK. We supply this robust, heavy duty floor protection roll and its
accessories at low prices. To enquire about our ram board equipment, give us a

			<description><![CDATA[<p>
	In order to protect carpets in an art room, it is important
for teachers and students to lay down temporary floor protectors on the floor.
This will prevent paint from soaking into the carpeting and will also avoid having
a slippery surface when using paintbrushes or rollers. In this blog post, we
are going to discuss how you can use temporary floor protectors in your art
room!</p><p>
	<img src="/product_images/uploaded_images/carpet-protection.jpg" alt="carpet-protection.jpg" style="background-color: initial; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; width: 314px;"></p><p>
	The first floor protector that can be used to protect carpets
in an art room is rubber or polyester carpet mats. These are the most
inexpensive option, and they come in all sorts of shapes and sizes! The
smallest ones will fit underneath tables so nobody walks on them while doing
work at their desk, but there are also much larger versions that will cover the
entire floor.</p><p>
	The second type of temporary carpet protector that can be used
in an art room are polyethylene plastic sheets, which look like large pieces of
clear, flexible Plexiglass or white shower liners. They are very lightweight
but incredibly durable and waterproof! These will provide a little bit more
cushioning than rubber mats.</p><p>
	One of the most common problems in an art room is having
students or other people walking on carpets with their shoes. This can cause
damage to the carpet and also create a messy, unappealing area to work within.
To solve this problem, there are many different floor protectors that can be
used to create a temporary surface for people to walk on while they are wearing
shoes.&nbsp;</p><p>From simple mats made out of rubber or polyester fabric, all the way up
to specialty products like "carpet runners" which look like carpets
but have a hard plastic backing underneath them, there are many options
available when it comes to protecting your carpets against shoe traffic!</p><h2><strong>Temporary Floor Protection</strong></h2><p>
	By using&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/hard-floor-surface-protection/">temporary floor protection</a> products which are available from Trio Plus, you can create a clean
and safe environment in your art room. These floor protectors are temporary and
can be easily removed, so that your carpets will remain in pristine condition
for years to come.</p><p>
	Whether you are looking to create a new art studio or want to
keep your art collection safe when the room is not in use, temporary floor
protectors are a great solution.</p><p>
	These products can be laid down on any surface to provide
protection against foot traffic and spills and have been used with commercial
carpet for many years! For maximum effectiveness, you should lay them down all
around your space. This will create an invisible barrier which will stop any
fluids from penetrating your carpets.</p><p>
	One of the benefits to using these floor protectors is that
they can be easily removed and stored until your art collection needs
safekeeping again! Carpets are great for creating an inviting atmosphere, but
we still recommend considering temporary floor protection if you're planning on
setting up a studio in a carpeted room.</p><p>

art room, please contact our team of experts on&nbsp;

			<description><![CDATA[<p>Tack Mats are a common tool used to mark out areas for service
or delivery. You can use them on hard surfaces like concrete, paintable floors,
and carpets with some adhesive padding or double sided tape for traction
purposes.</p><p><img src="/product_images/uploaded_images/tacky-matts.jpg" alt="Tacky Matts" title="Tacky Matts" style="width: 343px;"></p><p><strong>How do you use tacky mats?</strong></p><p>The first step involved is to remove any loose debris such as hair or dirt. The sticky mat is then applied to a surface and the system of using sticky mats can begin, for example on trolleys, bed frames or
wheelchairs. When dealing with bulkier items like hospital beds you will need
to use more than one tacky mat. A sticky mat is typically placed horizontal to
the door. This method can cause an operator to only put one foot on the mat,
but correct placement should include placing the tab away from traffic - this
encourages both feet touching the mat at least once.</p><p><strong>How do you stick mats?</strong></p><p>When placing, peel off the bottom layer if your mat has
one and lay it down sticky-side-down. Starting from one end of the doorway,
slowly wave your hands back and forth as you press the mat against floor in
order to let any air bubbles release around it before it is stuck to the
surface.</p><p><strong>How often should tacky mats be changed? </strong></p><p>It is important to remove the top layer after about 50

example if someone has a cart), among other factors. With our&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/sticky-tack-mats-entrance-protection/">sticky matts</a>, you

facilities. When working with large tools or machinery it is essential that
they do not come into contact with the floor. This will keep both productivity
high, as well as damage to a minimum should anything topple over. Tacky mats are
placed on the floor and come in a variety of sizes depending on the area you
need covered. The size of your tacky mat will depend on what will be using the

			<description><![CDATA[<p>When you think of floor protection, what do you automatically think about? If the answer is plastic sheeting (Ram Board), Correx Sheets and tack mats, then you are not alone. These three types of floor protection have been in use for decades and are still popular today. We will discuss them briefly below.</p><p><img src="/product_images/uploaded_images/floor-protection.jpg" alt="Floor Protection" title="Floor Protection" style="background-color: initial; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; width: 269px;"></p><p>The floor is one of the most important parts of a building, used for protection, movement and comfort. The floor is usually made from concrete, wood or stone; however other floor protection products are being introduced into the market place due to consumer demand.&nbsp;Flooring is made up of two large and separate groups: floor coverings and floor protection sheets. Floor coverings can include carpet tiles, vinyl flooring, hardwood flooring and many others whereas floor protection systems can include plastic sheeting (Ram Board),&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/correx-sheets-120cm-x-240cm">Correx Sheets</a>&nbsp;and tack mats.&nbsp;</p><p>Over the years, people were looking to keep their flooring surfaces protected from dirt, dust, spillages and scrapes during construction, renovation or office moves as well as for decorating or painting, parties and entertaining or other special events with heavy traffic in place.</p><p>It is not always easy to know the best flooring protection system for your needs. If you are looking for a durable, tough floor covering, then vinyl may be more suitable and if you need something lightweight that can easily be rolled up or taken out without any hassle whatsoever, then plastic sheeting (<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/hard-floor-surface-protection/ram-board-heavy-duty/">Ram Board</a>) would probably work better.</p><h3><strong>The History of Flooring</strong></h3><p>The floor has been a part of
many civilisations throughout history; flooring is possibly one of the first
decorative floor covering materials used in homes and buildings. Evidence
suggests that Stone Age people painted animal skins on cave floors and other
smooth surfaces, while Roman floor mosaics were made with coloured marble or
stone pieces to protect the ground from dampness and cold. In ancient China,
polished limestone slabs were laid over clay floors as a means of adding beauty
and warmth to their homes.</p><p>Though floor tiles have existed for centuries and
possibly even eons (depending upon how you look at it), ceramic floor tiles
became popular during the Roman Empire in 100 A.D., when they spread through
Africa, Asia Minor, northern Europeand Spain. These flooring pieces were often
made of terracotta and decorated with intricate designs to attract buyers. The
floor tiles came in different colours, styles, sizes and shapes, depending upon
the buyer's preferences.</p><p>It wasn't until the early 1900s that&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk//">floor protection</a> products really started to appear on the scene. In 1908, a German couple by the
name of Otto and Elise Boos patented a new floor covering product called
linoleum, which was a solid floor covering made from linseed oil and cork dust
mixed together and poured onto floors as thick sheets. This floor covering

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you think of floor protection, what do you automatically think about? If the answer is plastic sheeting (Ram Board), Correx Sheets and tack mats, then you are not alone. These three types of floor protection have been in use for decades and are still popular today. We will discuss them briefly below.</p><p><img src="/product_images/uploaded_images/floor-protection.jpg" alt="Floor Protection" title="Floor Protection" style="background-color: initial; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; width: 269px;"></p><p>The floor is one of the most important parts of a building, used for protection, movement and comfort. The floor is usually made from concrete, wood or stone; however other floor protection products are being introduced into the market place due to consumer demand.&nbsp;Flooring is made up of two large and separate groups: floor coverings and floor protection sheets. Floor coverings can include carpet tiles, vinyl flooring, hardwood flooring and many others whereas floor protection systems can include plastic sheeting (Ram Board),&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/correx-sheets-120cm-x-240cm">Correx Sheets</a>&nbsp;and tack mats.&nbsp;</p><p>Over the years, people were looking to keep their flooring surfaces protected from dirt, dust, spillages and scrapes during construction, renovation or office moves as well as for decorating or painting, parties and entertaining or other special events with heavy traffic in place.</p><p>It is not always easy to know the best flooring protection system for your needs. If you are looking for a durable, tough floor covering, then vinyl may be more suitable and if you need something lightweight that can easily be rolled up or taken out without any hassle whatsoever, then plastic sheeting (<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/hard-floor-surface-protection/ram-board-heavy-duty/">Ram Board</a>) would probably work better.</p><h3><strong>The History of Flooring</strong></h3><p>The floor has been a part of
many civilisations throughout history; flooring is possibly one of the first
decorative floor covering materials used in homes and buildings. Evidence
suggests that Stone Age people painted animal skins on cave floors and other
smooth surfaces, while Roman floor mosaics were made with coloured marble or
stone pieces to protect the ground from dampness and cold. In ancient China,
polished limestone slabs were laid over clay floors as a means of adding beauty
and warmth to their homes.</p><p>Though floor tiles have existed for centuries and
possibly even eons (depending upon how you look at it), ceramic floor tiles
became popular during the Roman Empire in 100 A.D., when they spread through
Africa, Asia Minor, northern Europeand Spain. These flooring pieces were often
made of terracotta and decorated with intricate designs to attract buyers. The
floor tiles came in different colours, styles, sizes and shapes, depending upon
the buyer's preferences.</p><p>It wasn't until the early 1900s that&nbsp;<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk//">floor protection</a> products really started to appear on the scene. In 1908, a German couple by the
name of Otto and Elise Boos patented a new floor covering product called
linoleum, which was a solid floor covering made from linseed oil and cork dust
mixed together and poured onto floors as thick sheets. This floor covering
became very popular during World War II because it was an inexpensive
alternative to wood flooring, which was scarce at the time due to its use in
aircraft production.</p><p>Towards the late 20th century, floor protection

<p>If you plan to move to a new house or move some of your furniture, property damage is one of the things you should plan to avoid. Damage to the items you are moving or parts of your house can be expensive as you will be required to make repairs, which you had not planned for. Most people concentrate on the possible damage to their fragile items like electronics and kitchen items and forget possible damages to the floor, walls and the doors along the exit routes.</p><!--more-->
<p>This article is about ways to protect your doors and frames when moving from one house to another.</p>
<p><img src="/product_images/uploaded_images/door-frame-protector.jpg" style="width: 236px; float: right; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px;" alt="door frame protection" title="door frame protection">
</p>
<p>
<strong>Why should I protect doors and door frames when moving?</strong>
</p>
<p>
	It is always advisable to avoid damages when moving as it can increase the total cost of moving. People moving out of a rented house will be required to cover all the repair cost through their security deposit money, meaning they will not get their deposit back from the landlord. Luckily, you can prevent damages to your door and frames using simple and cost-effective methods, as explained below.
</p>
<p>
	<strong>How to protect your doors and frames when moving</strong>
</p>
<p>
	Most damages to doors and frames when moving comes from bulky items like furniture and bulky electronics. However, you can prevent these damages using the methods explained below.
</p>
<p>
	<strong>Cover the doors with protectors</strong>
</p>
<p>
	The most effective ways of avoiding damages to your doors when moving are wrapping the doors or the items that are most likely to cause the damage. For example, you can use a 
	<a href="https://www.trioplus.co.uk/protect-doors-frames/">door frame protector</a> to protect your doors and frames from common damages like scratches, dents, nicks, scrapes and breakage. You can cover the entire door or just the damage-prone areas like the upper part of the door, the bottom part and the frames.
</p>
<p>
	<strong>Remove the doors</strong>
</p>
<p>
	You can also remove your door to protect it, especially if it is made of a fragile material like glass. Removing the door and keeping it away from the high traffic area will also help you move items faster than when you have to slow down to avoid damage.
</p>
<p>
	<strong>Disassemble bulky items</strong>
</p>
<p>
	Disassembling bulky items is a perfect alternative to using a door frame protector. This method
prevents damage by minimising the size of bulky items to allow an easy passage through the doorways. Things like furniture are easy to disassemble. Plus, it also reduces the risk of damaging the item.
