Rubber mat/flooring is a multifaceted and ubiquitous product that sees use in a variety of environments. Many types of commercial and industrial facilities rely on rubber mats to offer flooring security and comfort. This is because mat rubber is inherently durable and capable of withstanding abuse better than most other types of surfacing.

Having the right kind of rubber mats can make the difference between an unsafe flooring environment and one that is secure and welcoming for you, your employees, and your guests of all kinds. Below are ten industries that can –and do- make great use of rubber mat flooring:
