Protective Floor Covering

Protective Floor Covering Options

When you have a multi-purpose space, you don’t want to risk damage to a beautiful hardwood gymnasium floor when you’re hosting a wedding reception, quick construction project, or craft fair. At Greatmats, we offer protective floor covering products that are sturdy enough to stand up to tables and chairs while protecting flooring against scratches, spills, and gouges. Never spend another sleepless night worrying about what your valuable basketball floor will look like the day after a school dance when you use our sturdy hardwood floor covering products.

Types of Protective Flooring

At Greatmats, we offer three types of protective flooring.

1. Large Mats

Our large carpet mats are one of our more popular selections for protecting a gymnasium floor. For special circumstances, we provide heavy-duty plastic mats for protection over bare ground, tacky sheets to pull debris off shoes before walking onto the hardwood gym floor, and rubber and vinyl mats underneath exercise equipment.

2. Tiles

Carpet tiles and interlocking plastic tiles are good choices for a more permanent floor covering option, although they also work nicely for temporary floors, too.

3. Rolls

For extremely large areas, rolls of carpet, vinyl, or rubber almost certainly create the fastest layout. We have storage racks that simplify unrolling and rolling up these products.
