Understanding Mat Materials: Nylon vs. Rubber vs. PET

Nylon (Premium Performance Fiber)

Nylon is the industry standard for commercial and residential indoor mats.

• Exceptional crush resistance

• Fibers rebound after heavy traffic

• Produces the sharpest logo clarity

• Deep, vibrant color saturation

This material is used in DigiPrint HD logo mats for high-definition artwork and detailed branding.

Rubber (Heavy-Duty Protection)

Rubber mats excel in outdoor and industrial environments.

• Fully waterproof

• Resistant to oils, chemicals, and extreme temperatures

• Maximum slip resistance

• Ideal for SuperScrape and outdoor scraping mats

PET (Eco-Friendly Polyester)

Often made from recycled materials.

• Naturally stain-resistant

• Dries quickly

• Excellent value for moderate-traffic environments

• Ideal for residential and light commercial use

Backing Systems: The Foundation of Durability

Nitrile Rubber (Commercial Grade Standard)

The most important upgrade for long-term performance.

• Grease-proof

• Won’t crack, curl, or harden

• Maintains flexibility in hot and cold climates

• Keeps mats from creeping or shifting

Vinyl / PVC (Economy Option)

Suitable for low-traffic areas only.

• Less flexible over time

• Can ripple or curl at edges with temperature changes

Cleated vs. Smooth Backing

Indoor vs. Outdoor Mats: Choosing the Right Environment

Outdoor Mats – Scraping Power

Designed to remove heavy debris before it enters the building.

• Coarse fibers or molded rubber

• UV-resistant for color longevity

• Examples: SuperScrape, Waterhog

Indoor Mats – Moisture & Fine Dirt Control

Designed to absorb remaining moisture and dust.

• High-twist nylon fibers

• Comfortable underfoot

• Sharp logo presentation

• Examples: DigiPrint HD, Piazza

Best Practice: Dual-Mat System

Use a scraper mat outside and an absorbent logo mat inside for maximum floor protection and cleanliness.  Read More about the Two Mat System.

Logo Clarity & Colorfastness

High-Definition Printing

Advanced digital injection allows:

• Heavy traffic

• Repeated cleaning

• Sun exposure

Commercial vs. Residential Quality

• Heavier construction

• Reinforced borders

• Industrial wash compatibility
