Logo mats and logo rugs both display your custom branding underfoot, but they differ in construction, placement, and purpose. Logo mats are typically thinner, rubber-backed, and engineered for commercial entrances — they trap dirt and moisture, resist heavy foot traffic, and lie flat in high-use areas. Our logo mat styles include the DigiPrint HD, WaterHog Impressions, and SuperScrape Impressions. Logo rugs are thicker, more decorative, and better suited for lobbies, locker rooms, boardrooms, and interior spaces where comfort and appearance are the priority — our Piazza Logo Mat is the ideal choice for these larger, custom-dimensioned spaces. Rug Rats manufactures both, and we will recommend the right product for your specific space and use case when you request a quote.

We manufacture a full range of commercial-grade custom logo rugs and mats, including:

• DigiPrint HD Logo Mats — high-resolution photographic printing for bold, detailed branding
• WaterHog Impressions Outdoor Mats — durable, weather-resistant logo mats for exterior entrances
• SuperScrape Impressions Mats — heavy-duty scraper mats for high-traffic outdoor use
• Piazza Logo Mats — fully custom size and shape, ideal for large lobbies and inset floor installations
• Prestige Logo Mats — budget-friendly branded mats for lower-traffic areas
• DigiPrint HD Custom Shape Mats — die-cut to any shape, including logos and mascots
• Custom Logo Rugs — tufted and woven rugs for lobbies, locker rooms, boardrooms, and more

We make rugs and mats in virtually any size. Common sizes include:

We use commercial-grade nylon and polyester pile with Nitrile rubber backing for slip resistance and durability. Our materials are selected for fade resistance, heavy foot traffic performance, and long service life. Nylon and polyester also resist allergen buildup, making our rugs a good fit for healthcare and educational facilities.

Yes. All of our mats feature Nitrile rubber backing that grips the floor surface securely. The beveled edges and low pile height keep mats flat to the floor, preventing trip hazards. Wheelchairs, carts, and walkers transition over them smoothly.

Yes. Our WaterHog Impressions and SuperScrape Impressions mats are engineered for outdoor use — UV-resistant, weather-resistant, and built to handle snow, rain, and heavy soil. They can also be used as inset mats in recessed floor wells at building entrances.

We recommend a two-mat system: a WaterHog-style outdoor mat at the exterior entrance to capture water and debris, paired with an indoor DigiPrint HD mat to capture what remains. This combination keeps floors dry and clean year-round while keeping your branding front and center at both entry points.

Yes. We use digital color-matching technology and will provide a proof for your approval before production. Custom color matching is included in most styles; some specialty color options may carry an additional fee, which we will note in your quote.

Our nylon and polyester materials are low-VOC and contain recyclable components where available. The durability of our products also reduces replacement frequency, which lowers long-term material waste compared to lower-quality alternatives.

Yes — custom shapes are available in Rug Rats DigiPrint HD Custom Shape product line and the Piazza Logo Mats line. DigiPrint HD Custom Shape mats are cut to any logo outline, mascot silhouette, geometric design, or business shape. Piazza hand-inlaid mats can also be cut into custom shapes for premium upscale entrances. Standard WaterHog Impressions mats are rectangular only (the rubber border is part of the molded WaterHog construction). For custom-shape requests, send your artwork along with overall dimensions and we send back a free 24-hour digital proof at no charge.

Yes — nitrile rubber backings are the commercial-grade standard for entrance mats and significantly outperform vinyl. Rubber resists cracking, curling, and slipping far better than PVC vinyl. Rubber backings keep mats flat on tile, wood, concrete, and low-pile carpet without leaving residue, and tolerate moisture, mild chemicals, and UV exposure — essential for outdoor and high-traffic indoor use. A rubber-backed commercial mat typically lasts 3 to 5 years; a vinyl-backed alternative typically lasts 1 to 2 years and needs replacement twice as often. All Rug Rats commercial logo mats use 100% nitrile rubber backings, made to order in the USA.

Yes — Rug Rats logo mats are specifically designed for high-traffic commercial entrances. WaterHog Impressions HD is certified high-traction by the National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI) and is the industry standard for office, school, hospital, hotel, retail, and government building entrances. SuperScrape Impressions handles industrial-grade traffic with heavy mud, sand, and grit (manufacturing, construction, auto shops). Piazza hand-inlaid mats handle premium-lobby traffic in corporate, hotel, and ceremonial spaces. All hold up to commercial daily use for 3 to 5 years before replacement.

Yes. All Rug Rats commercial logo mat lines feature stain-resistant face fibers as a standard construction feature. DigiPrint HD uses StainStopper-treated nylon for indoor lobby use. WaterHog Impressions HD uses UV-stable polypropylene that resists most common stains (dirt, food, beverages). For oil-based stains or harsh contaminants, clean promptly with neutral pH cleaner. Avoid bleach, ammonia, and harsh solvents — these damage both the stain treatment and the logo print. For deep stain cleaning, professional steam extraction restores most stains.

No — Rug Rats commercial logo mats feature a rubber reducer edging that keeps the mat flat against the floor for the lifespan of the mat. The molded rubber edge transitions smoothly from the floor surface up to the mat fiber, eliminating curl and the trip hazard that comes with curled edges. The smooth low-profile edge also lets heels, wheelchairs, walkers, luggage carts, and shopping carts roll across without catching. The nitrile rubber backing further prevents curling by gripping the floor surface. Mats hold their flat shape for 3 to 5 years of commercial use.

Newly-manufactured commercial carpet may shed a small amount of loose face fiber during the first 4 to 6 weeks of use — this is normal for any new commercial carpet, and the shedding stops once the mat is broken in. After break-in, Rug Rats commercial logo mats hold their fiber for the 3 to 5 year service life with no visible shedding. To minimize early-stage fiber loss: vacuum daily for the first month. If excessive shedding continues after 6 weeks of normal use, contact Rug Rats for a warranty review.

Yes. Commercial entrance mats are a recognized risk-management tool for reducing slip-and-fall incidents. By trapping water, snow, dirt, and grease at the door, a quality entrance mat reduces slippery floor conditions inside the building — leading to fewer incidents and fewer insurance claims. The National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI) certifies WaterHog Impressions HD as high-traction, meeting recognized slip-prevention standards. For maximum protection, use a two-mat system: NFSI-rated outdoor scraper (WaterHog or SuperScrape) plus an indoor wiper (DigiPrint HD, Prestige, or Piazza). All Rug Rats commercial mats also feature a rubber reducer edging that eliminates the trip hazard from curled mat edges.

Yes — all Rug Rats commercial logo mats feature a smooth low-profile rubber reducer edging that functions as a beveled edge, providing a trip-free transition from the floor surface up to the mat fiber. The rubber reducer edge is part of the standard construction on WaterHog Impressions HD, SuperScrape Impressions, DigiPrint HD, Prestige, and Piazza inlaid mats. The smooth ramped transition lets visitors walk across without catching, lets wheelchairs and walkers roll smoothly, and meets ADA accessibility recommendations for floor-surface transitions.

Printed logo mats (DigiPrint HD, WaterHog Impressions HD, Prestige) use heat-set ink printing to reproduce full-color photographic logos with up to 57 colors and photo-quality detail. Inlaid logo mats (Piazza) use carpet fibers cut and inlaid into the mat surface to create the logo — the logo IS the carpet, with solid-color blocks rather than photographic detail. Printed mats are best for full-color photographic brand logos with gradients, complex art, and many colors. Inlaid mats are best for solid-color brand logos in upscale lobbies, hotels, and ceremonial entries where the tactile premium look matters and the logo never fades.

Inlaid (Piazza) logo mats hold their logo color longer than printed logo mats — because the logo is built from solid-color carpet stock, the logo can never fade or wear off. The carpet itself wears at the same rate as any commercial-grade carpet, but the logo stays vibrant for the full mat lifespan. Printed (DigiPrint HD, WaterHog Impressions HD, Prestige) logo mats hold their full-color logo for 3 to 5 years of commercial use before showing visible fade. For maximum logo longevity in high-traffic upscale spaces, Piazza is the choice. For maximum color and detail flexibility, the printed options are the choice.

The best commercial entrance mat for most heavy-traffic U.S. businesses is the WaterHog Impressions HD logo mat — it is the most-specified entrance mat in commercial construction, used in offices, schools, hospitals, government buildings, hotels, churches, and retail. The patented rubber waffle surface with raised water-dam border holds up to 1.5 gallons of water per square yard, certified high-traction by NFSI, with photographic logo printing. For maximum dirt-and-moisture capture in 1,000+ visitor per day environments, pair the WaterHog outdoor with a Piazza or DigiPrint HD interior wiper mat — the two-mat system traps up to 85% of incoming dirt and moisture. For industrial-grade heavy traffic (auto shops, manufacturing, locker rooms), SuperScrape Impressions handles the heaviest mud, sand, grit, and athletic-shoe wear.

For best overall commercial value, the WaterHog Impressions HD logo mat at a 4’x6′ size delivers the strongest combination of dirt capture, logo durability, slip safety, and price — typically $420 per single unit with discounts of 50-65% on quantities of 11+. WaterHog Impressions HD is the most-specified commercial entrance mat in the U.S., with a 3-to-5-year service life. For best budget value on indoor-only applications, the Prestige logo mat starts at $65 for a 2’x3′ — the lowest entry point in the Rug Rats lineup. For maximum upscale logo longevity, Piazza hand-inlaid is the best long-term value because the logo never fades. Every Rug Rats order includes a free digital proof at no charge and no setup fees.
