Top 5 FAQs for Foam Floor Tiles
Find a wide selection of interlocked foam floor tiles for home and exercise rooms. This is lightweight, easy to install, and an affordable solution for many residential and sports floors applications. Foam square flooring adds a nice cushion that can help reduce the impact of repetitive exercises. Softer foam tile flooring makes for a forgivable surface suitable for exercise areas.
1. Are foam floor tiles waterproof?
Some models will guard against water absorption, making them suitable for pools and sauna surrounds. These are typically a combination of rubberized and foamed materials. They’re designed for permanent installations. They prioritize traction and safety even if they're damp, and many are made to be UV protected. Read more about waterproof foam mats or tiles.
2. What are foam squares?
They have cushion and durability if placed over hard surfaces like concrete. These range between 3/8 and 1-1/2 inches thick (or 10 and 39 mm). Densities range from very soft tiles to firm and prices will vary, depending on the application and use type. Foam tiles or mats for gymnasium owners and in home gyms are a common usage case.
3. Can I use foam flooring tiles outside?
Yes, there are certain foam flooring products that can be used in an outdoor setting. Life Floor Super Grip Ripple is a popular pick for pools and saunas. These come in various designer colorings and have UV protection. They are 1-foot ASTM fall height rated, adding safety to any swimming area. The ripple texture provides superior traction for wet areas. Use these for outdoor or indoor pool areas.
4. How should I disinfect foam square tiles?
After sweeping dry debris, disinfecting foam flooring is a simple process. Applying basic household cleaner with disinfectant in it with a damp mop should work the majority of the time. Light scrubbing with a non-abrasive brush works for stubborn stains.
5. Can I put foam workout tiles on top of carpets?
Yes, when using the right model. With a softer style of carpeting or with extremely thin and flexible foams, the seams on the foamtiles could pop loose. PVC modular floor mats are a better selection, as they have a bit more firmness than foam tiles for floor.
Why use foam floor tiles for kids?

One of the major benefits of these is the ease of installation. As these 2x2s are conveniently sized, they are easily transportable. Installing these is a great DIY project and can be accomplished by someone alone.
Most of these have an interlock design, so they pop together like jigsaw puzzles. They frequently come with borders to create an island install with a finished edge.
For going tight to the wall or around objects like support poles, just cut them. Use a sharp utility knife to make the cuts. In most cases, no adhesive is needed.

Are interlocking puzzle floor mats available in wood grain and solid colors?
Multiple colors and faux woods finishes are available for these. A customer can always find a style of playroom squares to mesh with the existing decor of the room.
We have quite a few brilliant hues that children are sure to love, including bright greens, pinks, purples, oranges, and others. We also offer these in blacks and grays for use where brighter shades wouldn't be appropriate.
Certain units even have multiple wooden grain color finishes. This delivers a beautiful look in a room. A reversible design is also possible. These give a customer fake woods on the upper side and a color on the flip side. This simplifies the process of creating unique patterns.
Ours all feature the same puzzled edges. This allows different shades to fit together tightly. Installers then can lay out checkerboard or other patterns in the floors.
To develop a pattern, make sure to order the same thicknesses, if mixing and matching, to avoid creating a raised lip and a tripping hazard. Common thickness options include 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, and 3/4 inches. Other thicknesses are available too.
Do puzzle mats have a tight fitting connection?
One of the reasons Greatmats options are so popular is because of the puzzle edge. These edges have alternating slots and tabs, similar to jigsaw puzzle pieces. To connect them, press the tabs into the slots on the adjacent piece.
The right fit reduces the possibility of raised seams between them that could become a hazard for tripping.
Because of the tight connection between adjacent units, the seams will hold their integrity. High stress situations, such as people performing aerobic or martial arts workouts, won't cause them to pull apart.
Where can you find standard sized puzzle mat floor tiling kits?
If seeking an island layout, we have kits that cover exact dimensions. The kit will have the right number of pieces to create a specific coverage size. Ours have a carpet top and will cover dimensions such as 10-by-10 and 20-by-20 feet.
The kit includes centers, borders, and corners. It contains everything necessary for a perfectly crafted installation. In some kits, an edge piece will have a ramped design. This lessens the possibility of someone tripping on the lip of an island.
Our tiling kit consists of only the best materials. It has good longevity and value.
Such kits work perfectly for use at expos, schools, banquet halls, or wedding receptions. These are spaces where finished floorings that look great are a must. Once the event is over, disassembling them and placing them back in storage is an easy process.
These are appropriate to use in rooms throughout a residence or in commercial settings. Many of our customers are seeking a nice value from their purchase. Our products have the longevity they want, all while carrying a desirable price.
