Interlocking rubber gym floor tiles are a highly durable flooring choice. These floor tiles can protect subfloors against damage and are strong enough to withstand the weight of exercise equipment. But as you explore rubber gym tile flooring, you’ll find that these tiles have some key differences. This comparison will help you to better understand the pros and cons of each tile, so you can choose the product that’s best for your needs.

How Interlocking Rubber Gym Floor Tiles Compare

At Greatmats, we carry an excellent variety of nonslip interlocking rubber gym floor tiles. From different dimensions to thicknesses to styles, here’s how each of our most popular products compares.

Geneva Rubber Tile

The Geneva Rubber Tile is the largest of the tiles in this comparison. Measuring 3x3 feet, it covers the most area the most quickly, making it great for larger spaces. This tile measures ⅜ inch thick, which means that while the tiles are large, they’re still easy to move and install. They’re the second-thickest tiles we carry; the Interlocking Rubber Floor Tiles Color are the thinnest. Since these tiles feature color fleck options, you can customize your space with the color you choose, and their puzzle-style interlocks make for an easy installation.

These tiles are ideal for commercial facilities, and they feature a low rubber odor, suitable for indoor use. They’re made of 85% post-consumer recycled rubber, so they’re an eco-friendly choice that businesses can use to show their commitment to environmental causes. Made in the USA, the tiles are suitable for commercial gyms, weight rooms, athletic centers, and other larger spaces where you need to protect your subfloor and create an anti-slip surface.



Interlocking Rubber Floor Tiles Color

The Interlocking Rubber Floor Tiles Color measure 2x2 feet and are 8 mm thick, the thinnest tile we have available. Like the Geneva Rubber Tile, these tiles are made from 85% post-consumer recycled rubber. However, these tiles are intended for residential use, including installation in home gyms and basements, and on garage floors. Their puzzle-style interlocks mean their installation is DIY-friendly.

Made in the USA, these tiles can withstand the use of exercise equipment and help to protect your subfloor. Their 2x2-foot size means they can quickly cover larger areas, and the tiles are available in two color fleck options.



Sterling Athletic Rubber Tile

The Sterling Athletic Rubber Tile measures 2x2 feet, so it can cover larger areas. These tiles are 1.25 inches thick, meaning they’re highly durable and offer excellent shock absorption. They’re strong enough to withstand heavy barbell drops, protecting your subfloor, making them ideal for use in weight rooms. The tiles also have excellent sound reduction properties; by reducing sound by up to 28 decibels, they can make your commercial gym a more enjoyable space.

Made in Canada, these tiles are crafted from eco-friendly recycled rubber. Their hidden interlock design creates a clean, professional-looking floor, making them suitable for use in both commercial and home gyms.



Sterling Athletic Sound Rubber Tile

Measuring a full two inches thick, the Sterling Athletic Sound Rubber Tile is the thickest tile we offer. The tiles measure 2x2 feet, ideal for quickly covering larger spaces in your workout room. Like the Sterling Athletic Rubber Tile, the Sterling Athletic Sound Rubber Tile is designed to deliver a top-quality performance in weight room settings. These commercial-quality tiles offer even more sound reduction properties, and they can reduce noise by up to 38 decibels. Additionally, the tiles help reduce vibration and shock.

Crafted with 100% recycled rubber, these tiles are the most eco-friendly option. They are made in Canada and have extra features, like a wear layer for enhanced durability and a slip-resistance layer for athlete safety. These tiles create tight seam lines when installed, and they’re suitable for commercial gyms, home gyms, weight rooms, and even Olympic weightlifting facilities.
