Why Transforming Technologies CTM Tacky Mats?
Transforming Technologies CTM Series tacky mats are a cost-effective, low-maintenance solution for controlling foot and wheel-borne contamination at cleanroom and controlled environment entry points. Placed at doorways, airlocks, and high-traffic transition zones, these sticky mats capture dirt, dust, and debris from shoe soles and cart wheels before they can enter your controlled space — protecting product quality, process integrity, and ISO classification compliance.
Each mat consists of 30 numbered, peel-off LDPE film sheets. As the top sheet becomes loaded with contamination, it is simply peeled away and discarded, exposing a fresh, clean adhesive surface underneath. This peel-off design eliminates the time and mess of cleaning traditional mats and ensures consistent tack performance throughout the life of the mat. The medium-tack adhesive holds particles firmly without leaving residue on shoe soles or cart wheels, and the smooth LDPE surface is compatible with standard cleanroom footwear.
Applications
- Cleanroom and controlled environment entry points and airlocks
- Semiconductor and electronics manufacturing facilities
- Pharmaceutical and biotech cleanrooms
- Medical device manufacturing environments
- Food processing and laboratory entryways
- Any high-traffic area requiring particle contamination control

Frequently Asked Questions
How do CTM tacky mats work?
Each mat is a stack of 30 numbered adhesive LDPE sheets. As personnel and carts walk across the mat, the sticky surface captures dirt, dust, and debris from shoe soles and wheels. When the top sheet is visibly soiled, simply peel it off to reveal a fresh, clean adhesive layer underneath.
What tack level is the CTM1836BL?
The CTM1836BL uses a medium tack adhesive — strong enough to capture and hold particulate contamination from footwear and cart wheels, without leaving adhesive residue on shoe soles.
What sizes are available in the CTM series?
The CTM series is available in 18" x 36", 24" x 36", and 26" x 45". Each size is available in Blue and White.
Are frames available for these mats?
Yes. Optional frames are available to hold the mats in place at entry points. See the CTM2645-FRAME for the 26" x 45" size.
How many sheets are in each mat and how many mats come in a case?
Each mat contains 30 numbered peel-off sheets. Each case contains 4 mats, for a total of 120 sheets per case.
What environments are these mats suitable for?
CTM tacky mats are suitable for ISO-classified cleanrooms, pharmaceutical and biotech facilities, semiconductor fabs, medical device manufacturing, food processing, and any controlled environment where foot and wheel-borne contamination must be controlled at entry points.
