Frequently Asked Questions
What is plain rubber matting used for?
Plain rubber matting is an extremely versatile product used across workshops, garages, warehouses, factories, gyms, stables, agricultural settings, and events as a protective, anti-slip, and cushioning floor covering. Its smooth surface makes it easy to clean and suitable for a broad range of general-purpose applications.
What thickness do I need?
For lighter applications such as gyms, garages, and general floor protection, 3mm–4mm is typically sufficient. For heavier industrial or anti-fatigue use, 6mm–12mm options offer greater cushioning, insulation, and durability. Contact our team if you need guidance on choosing the right thickness for your specific application.
Can I cut plain rubber matting to a custom size?
Yes — rubber matting rolls can be trimmed to your exact required dimensions using a sharp utility knife and a straight edge. For thicker grades, score the surface firmly several times before cutting cleanly through.
Is plain rubber matting suitable for outdoor use?
This matting is suitable for covered outdoor environments, such as sheltered walkways, canopied areas, and indoor-outdoor transition zones with adequate drainage. It is not recommended for prolonged exposure to direct UV sunlight — for fully exposed outdoor use, EPDM rubber is recommended.
How do I clean plain rubber matting?
For routine maintenance, sweep away loose debris and mop with warm water. For more stubborn dirt or marks, a mild detergent solution and a stiff brush work well. Avoid using petroleum-based solvents or highly aggressive chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the rubber surface over time.
