Rubber Matting Rolls

Rubber Matting Rolls: The Complete Guide for Industrial, Commercial and Domestic Use

In today’s demanding commercial and industrial environments, finding the right flooring solution is crucial for safety, durability, and functionality. Rubber matting rolls have emerged as an exceptional option for a wide range of applications, from busy workshops and factories to gyms and stables. At Trusted Mats, we offer premium-quality rubber roll matting designed to meet the diverse needs of our customers while providing long-lasting performance in even the most challenging conditions.

What are Rubber Matting Rolls?

Rubber roll mats are versatile flooring products manufactured in continuous lengths to cover large areas efficiently. These durable sheets of rubber material come in various thicknesses, widths, and surface patterns, making them adaptable to numerous applications across different industries.

What are Rubber Mat Rolls used for?

Rubber mat rolls are versatile products that can be used in a variety of commercial and industrial settings, such as factories, warehouses, gyms, and retail spaces. They are commonly used as flooring to provide grip, traction, and insulation, and can help to improve safety in high-traffic areas.

Why choose Rubber Roll Flooring and what are the benefits?

1. Exceptional Durability and Longevity

Our rubber roll mats are engineered to withstand intensive daily use in demanding environments. With excellent wear resistance, these mats maintain their functionality and appearance even in areas with heavy foot traffic or equipment use.

2. Superior Slip Resistance to Improve Safety

Safety is paramount in any workspace, and our rubber matting rolls excel in providing reliable traction. With excellent slip resistance ratings, our mats significantly reduce the risk of accidents in both dry and wet conditions.

3. Versatile Application Options

• Industrial environments: Factories, warehouses, and workshops
• Commercial spaces: Retail floors, kitchens, and service areas
• Fitness facilities: Gyms, weight rooms, and sports centres
• Agricultural settings: Stables, barns, and equestrian areas
• Domestic use: Garages, utility rooms, and home gyms

4. Easy Installation and Maintenance

Unlike complex flooring systems, rubber roll mats offer straightforward installation options. They can be:

• Laid loose for temporary use or easy repositioning
• Bonded to the surface with rubber-suitable adhesive for permanent installation
• Cut easily to fit specific dimensions using basic tools

What are the different types of Rubber Mat Rolls available?

At Trusted Mats we offer a range of rubber mat rolls in different grades, patterns, and sizes, including:

Fine Ribbed Rubber Roll Matting

Our fine ribbed (sometimes called corrugated) rubber matting features closely spaced ridges that provide excellent traction while remaining comfortable to walk on. Available in both 3mm and 6mm thicknesses, this versatile option works exceptionally well in:

• Workshop floors where grip is essential
• Walkways with moderate traffic
• Workbenches requiring protection and stability
• Vehicle trailers needing safe, non-slip surfaces

Wide Ribbed Rubber Roll Matting

For areas requiring enhanced drainage or more pronounced traction, our wide ribbed rubber matting offers deeper, more widely spaced grooves. This design excels in:

• Entrances where water and debris accumulation is common
• Walkways exposed to wet conditions
• Industrial settings with potential fluid spills

The wider channels allow for effective liquid drainage, maintaining grip even in wet environments.

Penny Dot Rubber Roll Matting

• Excellent slip resistance from multiple angles
• Enhanced visual appeal for public-facing areas
• Good drainage capabilities
• Comfortable walking surface

This pattern is particularly popular in retail environments, public buildings, and spaces where aesthetic considerations are important alongside functional requirements.

Diamond Pattern Rubber Roll Matting

• Superior traction in all directions
• Excellent load-bearing capacity
• Enhanced visual safety cues
• Resistance to heavy traffic and equipment movement

This heavy-duty option is ideal for industrial settings, loading areas, and spaces with equipment traffic.

Anti-Fatigue Rubber Roll Matting

Designed specifically to reduce physical strain during prolonged standing, our anti-fatigue rubber matting rolls.

Choosing the Right Rubber Matting Roll for Your Application

Selecting the optimal rubber roll matting depends on several key factors:

1. Environment Assessment
   Consider the specific conditions where your matting will be installed:

• Moisture exposure: For wet areas, choose drainage options with holes or deeply textured surfaces
• Chemical exposure: Select specialised rubber compounds for environments with oils or chemicals
• Temperature fluctuations: Consider thermal properties for extremely hot or cold settings
• UV exposure: For outdoor applications, choose UV-resistant formulations

2. Traffic Intensity
   The volume and type of traffic impacts your ideal thickness and durability requirements:

• Light foot traffic: 3mm thickness may be sufficient
• Moderate mixed use: 6mm provides balanced performance
• Heavy industrial use: 10-12mm offers maximum durability and protection

3. Surface Pattern Selection
   Different patterns serve specific functional needs:

• Fine ribbed: General-purpose traction with comfort
• Wide ribbed: Enhanced drainage and more aggressive grip
• Penny dot: Balanced appearance and functionality
• Diamond: Maximum traction for demanding environments

4. Size and Installation Method
   Consider how the rubber matting roll will be fitted into your space:

• Standard rolls: 10-metre lengths in various widths
• Custom cutting: We can provide precisely cut lengths to minimise waste
• Installation approach: Decide between loose-laying for temporary use or adhesive bonding for permanent installation

What are the long-term cost benefits of using Rubber Mat Rolls in commercial and industrial settings?

Rubber mat rolls are a cost-effective flooring solution that can help to reduce maintenance and replacement costs over time. They are durable and long-lasting, reducing the need for frequent replacements. Additionally, they provide a slip-resistant surface that can help to reduce the risk of accidents and injuries, potentially lowering insurance and healthcare costs. Anti-Fatigue mats have also been scientifically proven to help improve productivity in the workforce.

In factories, warehouses, and production facilities, rubber roll flooring provides:

• Operator safety with reliable slip resistance
• Equipment protection by absorbing impact and vibration
• Noise reduction for improved working conditions
• Electrical insulation where required
• Demarcation of walkways and work zones
