LEED, LEED EB + LEED 3.8

 
Guarddog, by Nood, walk off mats keep interiors cleaner, minimize wear to flooring, and ease the strain on the environment by reducing the virgin raw materials needed to manufacture with a combination of bio-based, renewable and recycled content. The result is a mat that's 75% greener by weight than the industry standard and contributes to a building's LEED certification.

Safety First

 
With its non-slip backing and water-hoarding performance, Guarddog by Nood walk-off mats ensure a safe, dry path throughout the walking areas, both on and off the mats. And owing to a progressive three-stage process, Guarddog walk-off mats remove large and small particulate dirt, mud and moisture before they have a chance to harm the flooring.

Suggested Uses

 
Rib and Berber mats feature a thick, coarse texture while Dotz mats have a smoother surface. Both are ideal for entrances, seating areas or anywhere that needs high quality and beautiful protection. Perfect for hotels, schools, office buildings, luxury high rises, retail stores, shopping malls, assisted living facilities, clinics and recess wells.

Very, Very Green Backing

 
Guarddog walk-off mats are backed with EnviroCel ® polyurethane backing systems. EnviroCel replaces large percentages of the petroleum-based components in its polyurethane chemistry with Argol ® (polyols made from soybean plants) and Celceram ® (a recovered pre-consumer recycled mineral compound that adds to the product's environmental and performances benefits).
 
And to further enhance Guarddog walk-off mats' non-slip reliability, a second backing system is applied. BioGrip, created exclusively for Nood, is made of 70% natural rubber and contributes considerably to Guarddog walk-off mats' impressive Green By Weight number.

• EnviroCel and BioGrip are third-party certified for recycled and renewable materials and contributes to LEED totals.
• EnviroCel and BioGrip qualify for federal purchasing preference under the USDA's BioPreferred^SM program.
