These mats are fast and easy to install, lightweight, easy to transport and store, and stain resistant. They are also waterproof and scuff resistant, as well as easy to clean and maintain.

PVC Plastic
PVC, or polyvinyl chloride, is the third most produced plastic polymer in the world. PVC and Vinyl flooring is very versatile and durable, and it's made to last.
StayLock Tile Bump Top Black is one of the most popular and widely used PVC products at Greatmats. It's a great solution for various aerobic exercises and weight lifting programs, as it delivers a soft and cushioned feel like foam with the durability of rubber.
This flooring interlocks together tightly without separating over time - even when under pressure from weight of equipment or heavy foot traffic. It offers superior support, and the bump top surface texture delivers ergonomic benefits and anti-fatigue properties.
This waterproof PVC tile also features a raised base design that prevents water from getting trapped beneath it and from it sliding around. So, it's a tile that will stay put once installed, and prevent the growth of mold and mildew.
