Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between recycled rubber and virgin rubber floor mats?
Recycled rubber mats are manufactured from post-consumer rubber (tires, industrial waste) and offer excellent durability and cost-effectiveness while reducing environmental impact; virgin rubber mats provide superior chemical resistance and longer service life but cost 20-30% more. Recycled is ideal for general industrial flooring; virgin rubber is specified for chemical exposure or cleanroom applications.
How thick should my industrial floor mat be for heavy equipment or foot traffic?
Rubber-Cal offers mats from 1/8" (light-duty, walkways) to 3/8" and thicker (heavy equipment, impact-prone areas). For typical manufacturing or workshop floors with regular foot traffic and moderate equipment use, 1/4" is the industry standard; for forklift traffic or drop-hazard zones, 3/8" or thicker is recommended.
Are Rubber-Cal anti-slip mats suitable for wet or washdown environments?
Rubber-Cal's anti-slip surface texture remains effective when wet; however, standard rubber can absorb oil and grease over time. For oil-resistant applications, specify Rubber-Cal's neoprene or nitrile compounds, or their PVC-backed options which actively repel petroleum and cleaning chemicals.
Can I interlace Rubber-Cal modular tiles and later reconfigure the layout?
Yes, Rubber-Cal's interlocking modular tile design allows flexible reconfiguration for changing facility layouts. Edge transition ramps are available to safely connect tiles at different elevations or when accessing adjacent flooring. Proper interlocking and base preparation (level concrete or substrate) are essential for safe, stable tiling.
What maintenance do Rubber-Cal floor mats require to extend service life?
Regular sweeping and damp mopping with mild soap maintain Rubber-Cal mats; avoid aggressive abrasive scrubbing which can wear the surface texture. For oil-contaminated areas, use degreaser-friendly materials (nitrile or neoprene compounds) and allow thorough drainage. Most Rubber-Cal industrial mats deliver 5-10 years of reliable service with basic maintenance.
