Perforated Floor Mats

Options for Perforated Floor Mats

When most people think about flooring, they only think about a solid material that looks great. However, perforated floor mats also have plenty of benefits for particular use cases. You might not want a drainage mat roll with holes in a bedroom or living room, but they work great around pools, steam rooms, or commercial kitchens. If you have a floor drain, you can lay these rubber drainage mats and rolls over the top without affecting its usefulness.
