Climate Calculator
Compare the environmental impact of switching to N3 Zones
Rental mats need to be manufactured, transported, washed and replaced throughout the year. N3 Zones are permanently installed at the entrance, where they capture dirt and moisture and can be maintained on site.
What does your current entrance setup look like?
Enter the number of entrances and the average number of washable rental mats used at each entrance. The calculator estimates the environmental impact of switching to N3 Zones over a five-year period.
This calculation shows the difference between N3 Zones and traditional washable rental mats over five years.

What does the result mean in practice?
The comparisons below are based on the same five-year period as the calculation. Here the technical figures are translated into concrete examples that are easier to understand.

*N3 Zones are cleaned on site using electricity, while removable mats are transported and washed off-site. This results in somewhat higher local electricity use for N3 Zones.
Would you like to see if N3 Zones are right for your facilities?
We would be happy to have a no-obligation conversation about your building, its entrances and your current cleaning solution. Together, we can explore what will deliver the best results for the environment, operations and indoor air quality, and discuss possible next steps.
