Types and Styles of Large Outdoor Mats

No matter what type of large outdoor mat you want to use, trust that Greatmats has it in stock and ready to ship. Our products can manage whatever situation you find yourself in.

Entrance Mats

Entrance mats use special textured designs to efficiently pull soil and moisture away from the soles of shoes, reducing the level of debris that gets tracked into the building. Some mats have perforations that drain moisture to the subfloor. Bi-level designs make it easier to scrape shoes.

Playground Mats

Playground mats can be installed across the entire length and width of the play area, protecting children in case they fall. These mats also provide slip resistance for kids who are running. The mats deliver a sturdier surface than grass, dirt, or gravel on the playground, allowing parents pushing strollers or wheelchairs to easily access the playground.

Wet Area Matting

Heavy-duty wet area matting is primarily used around swimming pools, outdoor shower areas, hot tubs, or saunas. These materials provide slip resistance when moisture is present. Many wet area mats have perforations that allow water to drain to the ground underneath, keeping the surface safe for walking.

Wall Pads

You can mount large wall pads to fences in fields for football, soccer, baseball, softball, lacrosse, field hockey, flag football, and more outdoor sports. Should players be unable to stop running before colliding with the fence, the foam padding helps protect them from injuries.

Large Outdoor Mat Materials

You have several different materials to pick from when ordering large outdoor mats. All the materials are durable and fit specific use cases for delivering comfort, style, safety, or all three of them.

Carpet

Carpet mats are popular to use near the entrance of buildings. These large outdoor mats can create a long runway for people to walk across before they enter the building, efficiently pulling debris away from the shoes with every step. Large outdoor carpet mats often have a rubber backing to provide durability and to hold the carpet in place. Multiple colors are available.

Rubber

Black rubber mats are ideal for locations where you need maximum slip resistance and want people to be able to clean the soles of their shoes before entering a building. Some rubber outdoor mats have perforations that allow water to drain away or raised textures that make it easy to clean shoes. Rubber is durable and remains usable in many different weather conditions.

PET/Rubber

PET/rubber outdoor mats feature a combination of PET (polypropylene) fibers and rubber nubs that provide a long-lasting design for resisting wear from constant foot traffic. Many large outdoor mats that use the PET/rubber combination have a bi-level construction that efficiently removes moisture and dirt from shoes.

PVC Plastic

Our most popular outdoor mats, consisting of PVC plastic, are available in a roll format. Customers often roll the PVC plastic across a sidewalk or driveway, creating a more comfortable space for standing in line or walking to an event. These rolls are available in many colors and stand up to constant moisture, sunlight, and other types of weather.

Vinyl-Covered Foam Wall Pads

Athletic fields and stadiums often include unforgiving fences that place players in danger of injuries if they can’t stop running before they collide with the fence. Vinyl-covered wall pads have thick foam that you can mount on a fence, while the vinyl covering protects the foam, creating a cushioned landing area in case of a collision.
