Workplace safety mats provide great safety surfacing and protect your employees from hazards associated with industrial work environments. Rubber safety mats provide great comfort and traction and are one of the toughest safety surfacing options. If you were looking to cover hard concrete areas in the workplace, a great option to consider would be industrial safety matting. In comparison to other flooring options, rubber safety surfacing has superior qualities such as increased resilience, traction and comfort. Rubber safety mats and safety surfacing are great for industrial workplaces because they provide a warm comfortable surface for your employees to stand on as well as provide added traction, thus increasing the safety of everyone present. This is especially important for workplaces where slips and falls are a concern. With rubber safety mats, these hazards can be avoided while providing a comfortable surface to stand on at the same time (as opposed to a hard cement surface!). This is great for employees who stand in one place for extended periods of time and experience the discomfort of the unforgiving concrete floor.
Another great thing about rubber surfacing is that it helps prevent damage to equipment by providing a softer surface than bare concrete. This is especially important in situations where products may fall and land on the floor. The increased traction that rubber surfacing provides also helps prevent any damage to products because it allows operations to run more smoothly by preventing accidents that may result in damaged equipment and injuries. Rubber safety mats are a key solution when looking to prevent product damage and increase efficiency.
Our rubber floor mats come in a variety of different thicknesses, which allows them to be used for a wide range of applications. Our 1/8-inch Corrugated Rubber flooring products come in 4 different designs, each featuring their own unique surface texture aimed at preventing slips and falls by providing a non slip surface. These rubber safety mats are designed to withstand the most abrasive conditions that make them ideal for heavy-duty applications. For workplaces that require rubber safety surfacing in high traffic areas where wear and tear are a concern, the Corrugated Rubber mats would be great because they would hold up to the high traffic and would also provide a great traction.
When looking for an even thicker mat with the same anti-slip qualities, our Elephant Bark Rubber would be a great choice. This product has great abrasion resistance and also provides a great non-slip surface to stand on. It is available in two thicknesses, 1/4 and 3/8 inch, and is one of the toughest mats out there. Also, what makes this product appealing is the ease of installation. Since this is a rolled rubber product, installation is very easy and can be done by almost anyone. This is what makes this product a great rubber safety surfacing option: its very tough, provides a great non-slip surface, and is very easy to install. Since this product is available in thicker gauges, no adhesives are necessary for installation and it will stay in place under its own weight. This product is also made from recycled tires which makes it a very cost effective safety surfacing solution.
When looking for an even thicker rubber safety mat, the Shark Tooth is the answer. This rubber safety mat comes in a 3/4-inch thickness and is great for areas where noise reduction and vibration dampening are needed. Because of its thickness, this mat is great at reducing noise and vibrations that are associated with industrial machinery. It also helps to protect the floor from the machinery as well as the machinery from the floor! As you can see, rubber safety surfacing is a great flooring option for any workplace because of its anti-fatigue and non-slip properties. It provides a more comfortable surface to stand on as well as provides impact reduction to any dropped products, resulting in less damage. Rubber safety mats also increase traction in areas where slips and falls are a concern, which allows operations to run more smoothly, increasing overall productivity. Next time you are looking for a flooring option to cover that concrete floor, consider the benefits of rubber safety surfacing, you won’t be disappointed!

If you're considering rubber flooring to cover hard, concrete floors at work, explore your options in industrial matting. Compared to vinyl tiles, rubber surfaces have superior resilience. Rubber flooring will increase the general comfort of your employees by providing a layer of non-slip traction and a flooring surface softer than cement (which is a bonus for employees who are on their feet all day).
