About Desso Defend
For areas that demand unwavering protection against dirt and moisture, Tarkett DESSO Defend is the affordable, powerhouse entrance mat you need. Made with 100% ECONYL yarn, this intelligent indoor carpet tile features a built-in scraper designed to relentlessly prevent grime from being tracked further into your building, keeping your adjoining flooring spotless.
Defend is not only highly effective but also offers a flexible, cost-effective, and convenient solution for any high-traffic entrance. It actively reduces slip accidents and significantly cuts down on cleaning and maintenance costs, while also increasing the lifespan of your surrounding floor coverings.
Proudly made in The Netherlands, DESSO Defend is built to withstand the heaviest wear and is ideal for environments with increased risk of soiling across Health & Aged Care, Education, Retail, Hospitality, and Workplaces. For an even more robust and flexible entrance system, it can be perfectly combined with the high-performance DESSO Protect entrance mat, ensuring comprehensive protection and a consistently clean environment.
