Gym Floor Mat Selections

We have an assortment of gymnasium flooring, so no matter the scope or needs of the project, we are sure to have products to suit any need. Below are some of the most popular options.

Foldable Cushions for Gymnastics
Folding and competition landing gym flooring options are temporary solutions that can be easily transported, installed, and stored. These will offer excellent cushioning, but they also serve additional purposes, such as:

1. If fully or partially folded, these can be used as training aids for various heights. These can help students learn gymnastics and fitness training skills, offering them the support needed until they're proficient enough to perform the skills unassisted.
   
2. If laid flat, these are rugged enough to withstand heavy-duty use yet soft enough for sports where skin will be in contact with them.
   
3. Folding units can even be hung on walls to create a safe, shock-absorbing buffer to reduce injury and prevent damage to the wall in case an athlete ever comes into contact with the wall. They're ideal for lining walls for practicing tumbling passes, just in case athletes lose control while in motion.

Versatile and durable, these serve multiple applications and are a great investment for any program.

School Floor Mats
Our roll out cheer and gymnastic fitness floor mats can go virtually anywhere. They conveniently roll up, so they're perfect to take on the road. Alternatively, just store them away until the next practice.

Cheerleading mats have shock absorption to help keep athletes safe, and they're lightweight enough to be easily moved once practice is over and the extra protection is no longer needed.

Puzzle Foam
Our foam puzzle-style products are cushioned, forgiving, and frequently used for aerobic exercises.

The tiles are lightweight and interlock like jigsaw pieces, making installation fast. Lightweight, they are easy to install and transport, taking up minimal storage space.

Gym Floor Mats and Recycled Rubber Rolls

Rubberized gym floor mats are durable, strong, and essential protective flooring. Heavy exercise equipment, such as treadmills or weightlifting systems, can damage unprotected spaces.

Rubberized flooring has added strength versus foam, but it also creates a denser and harder surface. Unlike foams, which can develop indentations and be damaged by heavy weights, this excels underneath gymnasium equipment.

Additionally, this helps to dampen sound and also offers a temperature barrier against a cold concrete subfloor. It can make it an enjoyable space to work out. These are available in a number of different forms.

1. Rolls tend to be an economical choice for covering a big spot. They have fewer seams, but they need multiple people to install them because of their significant weight.
   
2. Straight edges are a simple option for areas that see lots of use.
   
3. Interlocking tiles are ideal if working with a smaller area or room. They're easier to transport, and they reduce the amount of material that is wasted during installations. They give versatility when installed in an area with obstacles like poles.

It creates superior durability for a weight room or high-traffic areas.

Matching Colors for Schools

Most of our gym mat options come in a variety of colors. Choose modular tiles in varying colors to create a custom look that matches a given decor, brand, or sports team. Order those that match a team's or school's color scheme.

Oftentimes, gym floor mats are made from recycled materials, particularly recycled truck tires, and the commercial gym flooring is ready for recycling again at the end of its usable life. Most are predominantly black because of the tires. Some have color flecks with varying percentages of color density available to personalize the appearance.

Greatmats offers top-quality workout floor mats that are constructed to last and that have high-quality materials and craftsmanship.
