All-Weather Floor Mats—Rubber Surfacing for Any Condition ?

Rarely do people live in a place with a single weather extreme, like a place where it constantly rains or a place where it’s always dry. Of course there are exceptions, like the desert, or snowy mountains. But more often than not, people live in areas that will see a whole range of weather patterns—from sunny summers to snowy winters. An all-season floor mat is an affordable and durable investment that will bring added safety and aesthetic appeal to nearly any outdoor area. Outdoor rubber flooring is designed to provide maximum quality with minimal upkeep, even in areas with harsh weather conditions. Available in a range of styles, sizes, and colors—like outdoor rubber mats, runners, and of course individual mats, there is a flooring option for every need.

Check out these common climatic conditions where all-weather floor mats really shines.

  • UV Resistance
    Many outdoor rubber mats, and other surfacing products, are made with EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber. Some of the principal advantages of EPDM are its amazing UV-Ray, ozone, and weather resistance.  So, whether you live somewhere in the Mojave Desert, or you just happen to have severe heat during the summer like many places in the US, these specialized rubber mats will stand up the extreme heat without cracking or fading in color. And that means that your floor mats will continue to look good and function appropriately for a long time.

  • Rain!
  • If you live in a state like Florida or Louisiana, where a few of its cities see more than 60 inches of annual rainfall, then you probably understand—better than anyone, the importance of having a slip resistant floor. However, seeing as there’s no single state in the US that doesn’t receive at least more than 5 inches of rainfall a year, it’s safe to assume we all can grasp the importance of having secure footing in wet conditions. All-weather floor mats are perfectly suited for these wet environments. Not only are they designed to provide added traction and grip, in order to help prevent slip and fall accidents, but the material itself is also resilient. Outdoor rubber flooring can often be made out of recycled and reclaimed tires, which speaks to the true toughness of this material. Automobile tires are designed to stand up against harsh conditions, such as hot asphalt, excessive moisture, and hard uneven roads.

  • Flooding

A common and unfortunate result of excessive rain can be flooding. Water, can have devastating effects on property, causing damage and often times completely destroying things. The use of rubber products in outdoor environments can ensure that one less thing gets destroyed! An all-season floor mat will offer added protection against slip and fall accidents, but it will also survive the excessive moisture of an inundation. Rubber is naturally water resistant, and unlike mats and surfacing made of other materials (such as cloth, leather, silk, or even wood), rubberized matting will not soak up moisture. More often than not, rubber products are non-permeable—their solid structuring will not allow water to pass

through them. This ensures that they will continue to function before and after a flood. And due to rubber’s resistance to water, its surface becomes an inhospitable place for mold and mildew to grow.

    • Cold Weather

This particular weather condition is a bit rarer to experience, as it takes a more specialized application of wind and moisture to form. But once you have hail—it can be both beautiful and frightening! When it hails, quite literally, frozen raindrops of varying sizes begin to pelt the earth. All-weather floor mats are not only designed to provide added safety in harsh weather conditions, but they are also designed to endure those harsh conditions in order to be long-lasting. Outdoor rubber mats will stand up to the assaults of falling hail, while protecting the expensive sub-surfacing of a deck or patio.

    • Snow

Outdoor rubber flooring is absolutely necessary in places that get even a little snow fall during the year. Some surfacing options are available in specialized ribbed designs that help remove snow from the soles of shoes, which can in the long run help you save money on the cleaning costs of interior flooring as well as giving you the benefit of non-slip surfacing. But yet again, the durability of an all-season floor mat is really going to shine in this environment because it will stand up to the cold and also to heavy foot traffic, while maintaining its shape and functionality.

For tough outdoor applications, rubber surfacing really is the perfect solution. Made from recycled, virgin, and synthetic compounds such as EPDM, rubberized all-weather floor mats are going to provide you with the best anti-slip qualities, while being highly durable. And with the various available designs, such as outdoor rubber mats and runners, you can apply these great qualities to nearly any space—from the busy outdoor walkways and paths of a corporate building, to the entrance of your own home.
