Why is Rubber Matting a Great Choice for Home Gyms?

Posted on by thrive

Got a personal gym at home? Good on you! However, with all those heavy equipment, you need a good flooring option to keep your floors safe. Carpets can easily tear and fray, which makes them unsuitable in a home gym. What you need is good quality rubber matting to cover the floors of your home gym.

In fact, there are several other reasons that make rubber mats the ideal floor covering for your home gym. Let’s take a look.

Rubber Mats are Strong and Tough

Rubber is a natural material that is popular for its thickness, strength and high resilience to impact. Mats made from rubber can withstand intense movements, absorb the load of heavy equipment and are hardly affected by daily wear and tear.

All of these features make rubber mats ideally suited for protecting the floor in your home gym.

Rubber Mats are Easy to Install

Unlike other flooring choices, rubber tiles or mats are extremely easy to install. You can do it on your own quickly and easily.

Rubber mats do not require any permanent fixing. The rubber mat can be laid on the floor and fixed with strong adhesives or double-sided tapes.

Interlocking rubber tiles are super easy to join and install. You can use as many tiles as necessary depending on the size of the room or a particular area where the gym-equipment has been installed. You can easily add more tiles to expand the rubber flooring or remove a portion if you need to create space for some other purpose.

Use Rubber Matting as a Workout Mat

The best thing about rubber matting gym is that you don’t need an additional workout mat to absorb your weight and prevent injuries. Exercising on hard floors is not only uncomfortable, you may easily fall and injure yourself seriously.

Thick rubber mats, on the other hand, are soft to the touch and make daily exercise more comfortable and enjoyable. Moreover, being soft and bouncy, rubber mats absorb the shock of a fall so that don’t end up injuring yourself.

Rubber Matting Helps Reduce Noise

You want perfect calm and peace when working out. However, heaving equipment on the hard floor surface is bound to generate a lot of noise and vibration. Rubber mats are resistant to noise and absorb all those distracting sounds so you can work out in peace and quiet.

Making a Great First Impression with Elegant Entry Mats

Posted on by thrive

The right entry mat says a lot about you and your organization. It creates a positive image in the visitor’s mind and has an alluring and appealing effect.

Make Your Entrance Look Well-organized

A shabby entrance with fading floors is not the ideal way to welcome visitors and potential customers. Such an entrance creates an impression of negligence or poor fortunes of the company. Not many people will want to do business with such an organization.

An elegant entry mat in appropriate colours gives a neat and well-organized look to your entrance. This reflects your professionalism. It also creates a perception that you want your clients and visitors to feel welcome and happy while stepping into your premises.

Add to Your Brand Image

Elegant entry mats certainly go a long way in uplifting the image of your organization. Regular mats in shades that match your company colours not only add a touch of elegance but leave a lasting impression on your visitors’ minds.

You can also opt for customized entry mats that have your company logo embossed. Such mats make your organization instantly recognizable and help your business place stand out.

Keep Your Staff Happy

A well-maintained entrance with an elegant entry mat influences the mood of your staff too. Few people like walking into their office over an entrance that is dirty and ill-kept. A well-organized entrance with stylish rubber mats can perk up their mood.

They will be happy and eager to begin their day if they walk through an attractive entrance with elegant entry mats arranged with a few potted plants or suitable décor.

Show How Much You Care

A beautiful entry mat not only uplifts the image of your business but shows your concern for your visitors, clients and staff. The weather does not remain the same throughout the year and during the rainy season, placing an elegant entry mat shows your eye for detail and your caring nature.

With an entry mat, people can wipe their wet shoes or even dry their feet before entering your premises. This not only keeps them happy but makes your interiors look less dirty.

What are the Best Places to Add Your Custom Logo Mats?

Posted on by thrive

More and more companies are waking up to the untapped potential of customized logo mats as a great advertising tool. The visual impact always has a great influence on the mind and it is human nature to look at the ground while they walk.

So with customized logo mats, you have an excellent opportunity to create a great impression on your visitors and prospective buyers. They are sure to notice the mats as they walk in and this kind of imprints your company’s name in their mind.

However, the sort of impact a customized mat can have depends on its placement.

Placing them at Entrances or Exits

These two spots are the first and the best options to consider when you are using customized logo mats. These are the areas that have maximum footfall and hence maximum visibility.

Customers and visitors are sure to notice them as they walk in or out of your store or premises. So instead of using a standard rug that does nothing more than keep dirt away, invest in customized logo mats that have the additional benefit of spreading brand awareness.

Placing them in Waiting Areas or Lobbies

Often people visiting an office find themselves waiting in the lobby or waiting area. No wonder then that these areas are a great spot to place your customized logo mats. Visitors are sure to notice them as they wait and this helps to create an excellent brand recall. Most of them are likely to visit you again when they require similar services or products in the future.

Placing them near the Reception Counter

The reception is another busy area that people visit throughout the day. Placing your customized logo mats near the reception gives greater exposure to your brand.

Moreover, with customized logo mats matching your company colours, the reception area looks more organized and appealing. This too helps improve your brand image and adds a professional touch.

Placing them near Display Areas

If you have a designated display area for your products, placing a customized logo mat near it can direct people in the right direction. Visitors are sure to notice them and walk towards the display area to see what’s on offer.

Placing them near Cash Counters

This is another great spot to place your customized logo mats. Cash counters are also busy places and as people wait their turn to pay, they will surely notice the mats.

Choose the Right Custom Floor Mat for Your Project?

How to Choose the Right Custom Floor Mat for Your Project?

Customized floor mats are a great marketing tool for your new project. Through their unique design and custom messaging, they can influence buyers and provide a boost to your business. With customized mats, you can convey your company’s purpose to your target market in an eye-catching manner.

Customized floor mats can play a pivotal role in the success of your project but choosing the right one is crucial.

Be Clear about the Purpose

To make the most of your customized mats, be very clear about their purpose.

Some mats are placed at the entrance to highlight your brand or any promotional campaign that you are running presently. Such mats should be really big in order to maximize customer attention.

You can draw in more footfall using attractive messages such as ‘up to 50% discount’ or ‘sale going on’ and so on to draw in more footfalls.

Some customized mats are great for indoor promotion. With bright colours and a bold message, they can direct customers to the right place where all the action is taking place.

Smaller mats are great for placing on countertops or billing counters where people can see them instantly.
Customized mats can also be a great giveaway that will keep customers happy and ensure customer retention.

Place them Well

The right placement plays a critical role. The right location can maximize the impact of your customized mats. However, you will need to check out the material first.

Customized indoor mats with vibrant photographic images are great for countertops but not that great as entrance mats. These are fancier in nature and cannot withstand long-term exposure to the elements.

For outdoor mats or entrance mats, select spot colour mats in materials that are durable enough to withstand the effects of nature and also high footfall.

Choose the Artwork Judiciously

Promotional customized mats are only as good as their design and artwork. A poorly designed mat will hardly serve its purpose.

Customized mats are available in different shades. So take advantage of this. You can colour coordinate them to match your company branding and have your company logo embossed on mats for better brand recall.

You can even have them made in a shade that matches the colours you have selected for your new product. With the right artwork, customized floor mats can greatly enhance the saleability prospect of your merchandise.

How Industrial Mats Help With Creating A Better Space?

Posted on by thrive

Creating a hygienic, comfortable environment is one of your top responsibilities towards your employees. This is all the more true in industrial areas where workers really have to slog it out.

Providing them a little comfort and a more conducive atmosphere is the least you can do for all their efforts. This not only creates a better working environment but also protects the health of your workers and improves productivity in the long run.

When it comes to creating the right space in industrial areas, the options are many. One effective solution is to install industrial mats. Made of natural, synthetic or recycled rubber, these mats are durable, comfortable and add a splash of colour in otherwise drab industrial spaces.

There are several benefits of installing industrial mats. Let’s explore.

Decreases Pains and Aches

In an industrial environment, workers are usually required to stand on their feet for long hours. And the longer they stand on hard floors, the more likely they are to experience pain in the legs and the lower back.

Industrial mats act like a cushion that provides a minimum level of comfort for your workers. Standing on industrial mats also helps reduce the impact on legs and the lower back thereby reducing the chances of aches and pain.

Improves Employee Morale

When your employees see that you are concerned about their health and comfort, it acts as a great morale booster. Imagine how happy they’d be when they realise that you are going the extra mile to provide them a safe, comfortable and healthy workplace.

When people are happy with their working space and understand that the management really cares, they are sure to put in some extra effort to reciprocate your gesture. Gradually, you will see an improvement in performance.

Prevents Accidents

Industrial mats have a rough under-surface that helps them to grip the floor better. The upper surface is textured so that employees walking over them have a better grip. This ensures that your employees are less likely to trip over or slip while walking over these mats. Some industrial mats even soak up liquids or allow it to run off, thus keeping the upper surface dry.

Easy to Maintain

Made of rubber, industrial mats are easy to clean too. You just wash them from time to time to keep them in top condition. Mats made of nitrile rubber are also resistant to grease and oil. These mats are ideal in industries that use these substances regularly.

Tips on Selecting the Right Outdoor Rubber Mats

Posted on by thrive

The way you decorate the entrance to your premises speaks volumes about your personality and lifestyle. Apart from plants and other accessories, mats too play a vital part in how your entryway looks. The right type of mat can make your visitors feel welcome apart from keeping your entrance clean.

Why Use Rubber for Outdoor Mats

Outdoor mats are available in different materials, both natural and artificial. However, rubber tops the list because of its unique benefits.

Rubber is extremely tough and just the right material for an outdoor mat. Your rubber mat will not discolour easily even after prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight or extreme rainfall.

Rubber provides excellent friction and the mat will not slip away easily from under your feet. So when you walk in from the rain with wet shoes or have just washed your entryway, you can step on your rubber mat without worrying about losing your grip.

Rubber is easy to wash and maintain. It dries off quickly and is resistant to most washing liquids available in the market.

However, do remember that rubber mats can become very stiff and crack easily in extreme cold. It is advisable to move your outdoor rubber mats indoor during the harsh winter months.

Choosing the Right Outdoor Rubber Mat

Rubbers mats for outdoor use come in myriad shapes, sizes and colours. The right outdoor rubber mat can make your entrance look gorgeous and add to the overall beauty of your house.

The Surface

The prime use of an outdoor mat is to help people wipe off dirt and dust from their shoes before entering the house. For best results, choose a rubber mat with a textured surface. Textures on the surface make the rubber mat more abrasive so that it is easier for people to rub their dirty shoes against it.

The Size

Since outdoor rubber mats come in all sizes, it is important to note the width of your doorway before buying your mat. The mat should be wide enough to fit both feet comfortably. A large mat is also ideal for wiping your feet thoroughly before entering. The mat should cover at least 80% of your entryway.

The Thickness

Outdoor rubber mats are also available in various thicknesses. A thick mat will definitely last longer and will be more comfortable. However, a very thick mat can hamper the movement of the door.

The Colour

Choosing the right colour is crucial when you want your outdoor rubber mat to enhance the look of your entryway. Ideally, the colour should complement the overall look and feel of your entrance.

If the outdoor walls and the door are in a light shade, a mat in bold colour can create a striking effect. Bold colours also look great if you have a lot of greenery all around. And of course, you don’t have to clean your mats too often if they are dark in colour.
