Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are 17mm rubber gym mats suitable for high-traffic commercial gyms?
A: Yes — the 17mm commercial rubber mats at 950 kg/m³ density are designed for the demands of busy commercial gym environments. Rated for 80kg drops (in-house tested) and EN 13893 certified, they handle the combined stress of heavy free weights zones, functional training areas, and daily multi-user commercial gym traffic.
Q: What's the acoustic performance — important for commercial gyms in multi-tenant buildings?
A: In-house testing shows 43 dB noise reduction with these 17mm mats — a significant improvement over standard commercial rubber tiles. For commercial gyms in converted office buildings, leisure centres, or above retail units, this acoustic performance substantially reduces transmitted impact noise to adjacent spaces.
Q: How does the 915mm × 915mm (3ft × 3ft) format work for large commercial floor installations?
A: The 3ft × 3ft format covers 0.84m² per mat, meaning fewer pieces for large commercial installations. A 100m² commercial gym floor needs approximately 120 mats — significantly fewer joins than a smaller tile system. Fewer joins means a faster professional installation and reduced points of potential wear over time.
Q: Can these mats withstand heavy static loads from commercial gym equipment?
A: Yes. The 950 kg/m³ density resists permanent compression under static equipment loads — essential for commercial gyms where cable machines, squat racks, leg press units, and plate storage trees sit in fixed positions for years. Lower-density mats can develop permanent indents under static machine feet.
Q: What certifications do these mats carry for commercial gym compliance?
A: EN 13893 slip resistance, CE marking, and REACH compliance. These are the standard certifications required by commercial gym operators, facility management companies, leisure trusts, and insurers for professional fitness flooring. Documentation available on request for procurement and compliance teams.
Q: What's the maintenance requirement for commercial rubber gym mats under daily use?
A: Commercial gyms should sweep daily and deep mop weekly with a rubber-compatible gym disinfectant. The dense 950 kg/m³ rubber surface resists liquid penetration and bacterial ingress. Schedule quarterly deep cleans for high-traffic free weights zones. Individual mats can be lifted and replaced without disturbing adjacent flooring.
