When multiple Universal safety mats are required to cover an area, Active Joining Trim is required.
Active Joining Trim is comprised of Active Trim and Joining Strips.
Active Trim is cut to fit under and between two or more adjacent safety mats. It serves the dual
purpose of creating an active joint between mats and as a wireway for mat cables. Active Trim works
by transferring the weight of an object or personnel beyond the 1/4 in. (6.25mm) inactive area along
the edge of each mat to the active area of either one or both mats comprising the joint.
Active joining trim consists of two parts, an aluminum base that provides a wiring channel for two
mat cables and a black PVC cover providing protection for the cables and covering for the open area
between the mats.
