Easy to set up, move, and clean, Dycem® Floating Mats are decontamination mats for effective contamination control when and where you need it.
What are Dycem mats used for?
Dycem’s Floating Mats are loose-laid, ready-to-use mats that offer the same great benefits as our Dycem Clean Zone product, but without the need for permanent installation. These contamination control mats are versatile and can be easily moved, making them suitable for locations where permanent installation to the subfloor is not possible. Dycem Floating Mats are ideal for facilities with raised flooring, access tiles, or areas under construction.
Dycem Floating Mats have a surface resistivity of 10⁸ ohms, making them static dissipative. Their natural tack traps and retains particulates from shoes and wheels, while the surface energy (van der Waals forces) of the Dycem material draws additional particulate out of the air. This minimizes dust and charged particle accumulation, helping to lower the risk of ESD damage in facilities.
Dycem Floating Mats boast the same multitude of features and benefits as DycemCleanZone, with a few unique aspects that set it apart. Below are a few ways Dycem Floating Mats stand out. Read more about the complete Dycem Difference, making us a superior choice for floor-level contamination control.

Dycem® Floating Mat Best Practices
Where to Use Dycem Floating Mats
Locations where long-term adhesion to the sub-floor is not possible.
At all pedestrian entrances and exits to critical and controlled areas.
Inside gowning rooms, airlocks (PALs), and air showers.
In hallways between different controlled spaces or product lines.
Adjacent to critical products and processes.
At entry and exits to controlled storage and packaging areas.
Tips For Use
Keep the area where Dycem Floating mats are placed clear and free from obstacles such as bins, crates, carts, or racks.
Ensure no heavy items or equipment are left on the Dycem surface for prolonged periods of time.
During usage, your Dycem Floating mats may look dirty. This is good and shows that the product is working to keep contamination out of your critical environments.
Slight scuffing may appear if shoes frequently drag across the Dycem mat in high-traffic areas, however, this does not affect performance.
Floating Mats are not adhered to the subfloor, cleaning underneath is required for optimal contamination control.
