Rubber-backed mats provide a rectangular, better slip break resistance thaninto vinyl-backed mats.

Some rubber-backed mats have cleated surfaces on the bottom that further enhances non-skid properties and allows moisture to dry from underneath the mat. Preparation

The best interior mats are made with a rubber backing that will resist slippage on any surface – carpet or hard surface. Industrial Mats Industrial mats usually fall into two broad use areas – Traction Control/Floor Protection mats and Anti-Fatigue mats. Traction Control mats are engineered to provide safe footing with minimum movement in any environment. Typical applications include outside entrances, ramps and floor areas where contaminants such as oil, grease or water are common. For maximum safety, these mats should be designed for minimum slippage on any surface. In addition, the mat surface should be
