There are multiple reasons why you may be looking for textured rubber flooring. One reason is to cover a concrete surface with it from damage such as cracking, chipping, or scratching. Meanwhile, another reason may be because the flooring structure has already sustained this sort of damage, and as a result it is unsightly and even dangerous. Whatever the case may be, with so many surfacing options available you may be having a difficult time making a decision. Concrete resurfacing is one option, but it’s time-consuming and can be quite expensive. On the other hand, completely replacing your concrete is a lot more expensive and will take a much longer time. Textured rubber flooring offers a much more convenient and affordable solution. From diamond plate rubber to corrugated rubber, this material is available in a wide verity of interesting and practical designs. Coin rubber flooring, like the rest of these textured options, is available in rolls that come in seamless lengths of up to 50 ft. and can be custom cut for specific requirements. Of course, you can even select individual mats and interlocking tiles as options for your textured rubber coverings.

This resilient material has a lot more to offer than just good looks! Durability, ease of installation, and affordability are just a few reasons why rubber is the best option when it comes to concrete floor coverings. Take a look at all the benefits that textured rubber flooring can offer your heavy-duty floors:

“Block-Grip” PVC Flooring Rolls

• Temporary or permanent installation
• Being 2mm thick, this flooring option is very easy to cut
• Perfect for use as gym floors, boat PVC flooring, flooring for a basement, garage flooring, flooring for entryways, art studio floors, and more

Easy to Transport: These commercial PVC flooring rolls are easy to take around with you and can be reused from project to project. On a practical level, flooring that comes in roll form is easy to lift and transport around. Beyond that, if you use double-sided tape as an adhesive during installation, the PVC floor can be taken off and used in another project. This transient quality makes these rolls a favored product among professional installers around the country. If you need boat PVC flooring or a new garage floor covering on a short notice, this flooring is ready to go!

Increased Traction: Regardless of the application you use these rolls for, whether it is as gym floors, flooring for a basement, or a garage floor covering, safety should be one of the concerns in your mind. Luckily, the surface design helps to keep feet safe. The ever-so-slightly raised edges of the block design gives feet the traction they need in order to prevent problematic slip and fall accidents.

The Benefits of a Textured Surface

Slip-Resistance—When moisture is present, the potential for slip-and-fall accidents greatly increases. This danger is even more prevalent upon a smooth surface, such as hardwood, tile, linoleum, and of course even concrete. Coin rubber flooring, like the other textured designs, offers a surface that adds grip and traction, which can help keep people on their feet. And because rubber is resistant to water and designed to preform well in abrasive conditions, you won’t have to worry about water damage.

Traction—Not to be confused with slip-resistance, though it does play a part in aiding to prevent slip-and-fall accidents, traction can also help to prevent falls even when moisture isn’t a factor. Rubber has a naturally high coefficient of friction, which actively works to create a surface that reacts and bonds with the soles of shoes (as well as many other things). This can be highly useful in places that see high foot-traffic, where people may be liable to bump or push into each other. Likewise, a richly textured surface, like diamond plate rubber, when employed on an incline ramp will help individuals keep steady footing even if they’re pushing something up or when they don’t have a clear line of sight.

Aesthetic Qualities—Textured rubber flooring is useful, but it’s also very aesthetically pleasing. For example, consider diamond plate rubber, which mimics a classic and beloved design. On the other hand, a raised coin surface offers something more modern. Regardless of the aesthetic requirements, the conformity of a textured design is a great way to bring a room together adding a touch of flair while also keeping a professional appearance—especially in an industrial type setting.

“Diamond-Grip” Rubber Stair Tread – (6 pack)

• Professional industrial aesthetic
• Can be installed with double-sided tape
• Great for commercial and residential stairways
• Great for use as outside matting because it can resist moisture

Surface Texture:  The industrial diamond plate surface texture is perfect for keeping you safe on the stairs. The pattern features lines in sets of four that are slightly raised and arranged in opposing patterns. This is how your feet stay safe on the non-slip mat. The pattern will push back and give your feet more traction as you move along them, keeping you safe and secure on your staircase.

Very Durable: By having a step mat such as this on your stairs, you will be protecting the surface of your steps. The rubber material is strong enough to provide a buffer zone between the wear and tear of foot traffic and the sensitive step surfacing. This anti-slip stair tread can even briefly endure the press of a heavy object. Damaged stair surfaces can lead to accidents, so it is a good idea to have this non-slip mat in place.

A Durable Option

Corrugated rubber, like diamond and coin surfacing, is designed to withstand abrasive treatment. Because these flooring options are often meant to be employed in the heavy-duty environments of industrial settings, it’s highly important that the material be able to stand up to demanding applications, like heavy foot-traffic, dropped items, and the support of heavy equipment. The point of using concrete floor coverings is so that they takes the brunt of whatever harsh conditions you’ll be exposing them to, as opposed to your concrete suffering potential or continuous damage.

Nearly Carefree Maintenance

Unlike other flooring options that may need polishing or special cleaning and treatments, a rubber surface requires minimal upkeep. To keep your rubber surface in tip-top shape, you’ll need little more than a broom to sweep away debris and if needed a damp mop to wipe away dirt, muck, and grime. Textured rubber flooring will also boast a resistance to water, which means that excessive moisture will not result in the growth of mold and mildew.

A DIY Option

Coin rubber flooring, like the rest of the textured surfacing choices, comes in rolls which makes it an astoundingly easy to install flooring option. Whether it’s the diamond plate rubber or the corrugated rubber—this roll out surfacing option is available in continuous lengths of up to 50 ft. making it easy to cover a larger space. However, rolls aren’t the only option. Individual mats and interlocking tiles can be used to protect smaller and oddly shaped locations, ensuring that nearly any space can be afforded the many excellent qualities of a rubberized floor. Since this textured rubber flooring doesn’t require heavy-duty adhesives, it will be easy to install and remove should it ever need replacement—or should you ever decide to reuse it in another location.
