Yes this product can be cut using a sharp utility knife for a wall to wall fit.

Is this Low VOC and Non-Toxic? I have problems with chemical odors.
I would suggest getting a sample first. We don't have any testing per your questions to make a statement.
Would this be appropriate for barefoot dancing? Is it slick or tacky or neither? Is there any kind of oil or other substance on the mat that would come off on my feet? I have mats from another company that I have tried to scrub clean but they still have a residue.
I would suggest a marley vinyl for a dance floor. This <a href='/home-dance-floors/top-five-home-dance-floors-on-a-budget.php'>blog</a> covers a few options for dance floors for home use.
I've read reviews of other tiles that complain of the tiles sliding around on the floor and pulling apart with any type of aerobic activity. Do you know how these tiles stand up to vigorous movement?
Because these tiles are thicker and heavier than any other type of interlocking foam tile that we know of, this would be less of an issue. But if installed over carpeting, that is the worst case scenario for tile slippage. Install over a hard flat surface and use double sided carpet tape as needed.
We have a stained concrete for the basement floor. There is a clear cost wax over the stain. Do you know of any problem with this mat system affecting this type of flooring? We are planning on covering an 18' x 17' room with this and hope to create a home gym but want to be able to convert the room as needed and don't want to ruin the flooring. Thx
We dont have any experience with foam tiles over a waxed concrete floor, we dont think this will be an issue.
Does the 3/4 inch Pebble foam interlocking mat have click floor tile ramp pieces
These interlocking mats come with two detachable, straight-edged border pieces each. If you require a ramped-edge, your local flooring or home improvement store may have a solution.
Will this protect a concrete floor from weights up to 300 lbs being dropped on it?
This product is a super high density foam and not rubber. It can handle very heavy equipment and an occasional accidental weight drop. It is not recommended for heavy power lifting. Rubber flooring would be a better selection for your application.
Um, what are the dimensions of each tile? Call me crazy, but it seems like that is something that should be listed in the product description.
2x2 Feet. 20mm thick
Can these tiles be put over current hard wood floors without damage to the hard wood flooring?
These tiles are made of a super high density durable EVA foam material and there should be no issues with the hard wood floors.
Can you cut these with a utility knife?
Yes, these tiles can be cut with a sharp utility knife.
What size area the tiles
Each tile measures 2x2 feet, thus covering 4 square feet.
How many edge pieces comes with an order?
Each tile comes with 2 border strips.
How do these mats deal with moisture? I’ve previously used horse stall mats in our home gym on the ground level floor and have had some condensation/moisture problems under the floor. Do these provide more ventilation than horse stall mats? Thanks
Moisture will not absorb into the mats, so water wont damage the mats. There is a slight pebble texture on both sides, so it does not sit completely flat against the floor. However, it is still likely, that moisture will would be trapped under the mats.
Can I place these tiles over carpet for a home gym area?
If installing over carpet, we recommend putting a layer of plywood down over the carpet first. If you'd like to install a gym flooring directly on the carpet, you'll want one of our StayLock Tile options - with either a <a href='https://www.greatmats.com/fatigue-flooring/fatigue-tiles-staylockbump-black.php'>Bump Top</a> or <a href='https://www.greatmats.com/gym-flooring/gym-floor-tile-staylock-black.php'>Orange Peel</a> surface texture.
How thick are the mats?
20mm (roughly 3/4 inch)
How many tiles come in a box?
