Rubber Gym Floor Tiles for Commercial Installations

Rubbery shock absorbing products yield a high level of durability. They are popular in areas where a heavy weight workout will occur.

We offer these in varying coverage sizes. Try our straight edge 4x6, 4x8, or 4x10 foot rubber mats. Or for a large coverage area that's easy to clean, consider our rolls.

Basic black is the most common color. However, Greatmats does offer custom colored selections. Customers appreciate this option for providing an interesting design in exercise rooms.

Plastic Gym Floor Tiles

Durable raised PVC will provide both cushioning and durability, ranking nicely in terms of comfort and strength.

These are nice options for colored floorings at an affordable cost. Use them for cardio or aerobics studios, CrossFit gyms, or play areas.

PVC is ideal for installs over carpet. In a damp basement where moisture is a concern, these work nicely too. They allow air to flow beneath each tile.

Soft plastic modular gym floor tiles showcase the latest technology. They have durability, cushioning, and longevity. They are great for aerobics and small hand weights. Our gym flooring tiles are durable.

Installing these is a piece of cake. They don't weigh much, and one person can move them into place quickly. They are available in thicknesses from 1/2 to 1-5/8 inches.

Our Pro Martial Arts 20 mm are great mats for those on a tight budget.

Best Gym Floor Tiles Material

A customer can assemble and disassemble interlocked tilings quickly, making them ideal for temp use cases.

For those who need lightweight units for easy transport, plastic or foam are the better choices.

Rubberized units are heavier, while also standing up to heavy weights. They will protect the subfloor from damage too. They don’t suffer from indentations over time from the equipment. They are the smartest choice to keep the subfloor protected from dropped free weights.

Where students will crash to the ground in martial arts practice, a gym mat flooring option using foams yields safety from falls. These work well in settings where cushioning and comfort are important. They resist scuffs.

Look to use PVC when creating a home gym flooring over concrete in a basement that may be damp. These allow for airflow beneath and around them, eliminating excess moisture. They have a nice level of strength for exercise mats. They also provide a sure footing, which is great for aerobic and cardio workouts.

Interlocking Gym Mats

Interlocked commercial gym flooring allows for a flat, finished edge for any type of installation. Customers have the option of cutting each one. Score it with a knife first. Then snap it apart, creating a flat edge.

Installers could purchase border pieces separately instead of cutting for an island design in the middle of a room. These connect tightly to the main part to deliver the straight edging. The borders will stay in place when subjected to regular workouts.

FAQ Gym Floor Tiles Q&A

What are the top floorings for a gymnasium?
If comparing foams, woods, and plastics to a rubberized unit, each has its advantages and disadvantages. Think about the type of use case plan and then make a selection.

Is EVA good for gym floor tiles?
Yes. Foam flooring tiles are ideal for athletic studios. The surface resists scuffing from shoes and boots. They consist of lead- and latex-free EVA for a safe environment. We do not recommend them for barbells or workout machines. Constant pressure will indent it, and these indents will become permanent eventually.

How thick should gym flooring be?
Versatility is a key component. Our customers can pick from multiple thickness measurements, ranging between 0.25 and 1.25 inches. Thicker ones have more cushion. Thicker matting provides noise dampening and guards the subfloor better than a thinner model.

Does a treadmill need matting under it?
To guard subfloors, rubberized mattings are a smart idea. This works well to support heavy equipment like weight machines, stationary bikes, and treadmills. These will maintain their shape, even under extreme stress.

How do you lay rubber gym tiles?
The puzzle-style edging allows for a tight fit to the wall. Cut them for perfect fits. We also offer options for premade straight edges without cutting through borders. Most people can perform DIY installations of these. A couple of people can carry and align them during installations.
