Pee Resistant Rubber Flooring

Not only will this rubber roll protect a subfloor from urine and other stains that could be caused by a pet cat, dog, or even horse, it will also act as a sound dampener.

The rubber rolls are easy to install, as they can simply be laid directly over concrete, ceramic tile, or any other smooth, hard surface. It can be cut to fit specific spaces using a utility knife.

Although these rubber rolls are water resistant, if spills and accidents are not cleaned up relatively quickly, liquids can work their way into the pores of the rolls. To provide maximum resistance to liquids, consult a Greatmats representative about sealing the rubber flooring. When you need to give them a cleaning, use a neutral pH cleaner, damp mop, and hot water.

If you can’t get to a spill or accident right away, it’s not as big of a deal, assuming there’s no puddle over the seams, if you have these mats in place as they are 100 percent waterproof. When you do have urine to clean, use a rag or damp mop with mild household cleaners, and vacuum regularly for dry dirt, dust or debris. These tiles are designed to last!

Greatmats - For Pee & Urine Resistant Flooring

Urine can do great damage to certain types of floors. The base of urine is uric acid salt crystals that literally can burn the top coat or finish of a floor over time. It can also leave tiny cracks on grout and tile. This type of damage may seem minor, but over time, can be major. Acid in urine is very detrimental to many traditional flooring products. Instead, choose a flooring solution that is urine resistant to prevent damage, odor, stains, and more.

Aside from accidents caused by children and pets, certain business and residential settings would also benefit from flooring resistant to urine damage. Hospitals, surgery centers, nursing homes, and other facilities could experience spills and accidents.
