Insights That Elevate Every Entrance

With proper care, a quality rubber entrance mat can last anywhere from five to ten years, even in busy commercial environments. The key is the material — natural rubber doesn't compress permanently or break down under constant foot traffic the way fabric or foam-backed mats do. Occasional cleaning and keeping the mat free of sharp debris underfoot will help it stay in good shape for the long haul.

Yes, and they're well suited to it. Natural rubber handles UV exposure, heat, and rain far better than most alternative materials. Whether it's positioned at a sun-facing entrance in summer or dealing with wet weather at a Highveld afternoon storm, a good rubber mat holds its structure and keeps doing its job. Just ensure it has adequate drainage around it so water doesn't pool beneath the backing.

New Wave Print mats are best suited for indoor and sheltered environments with low to medium foot traffic. Their polyester fabric surface and foam backing perform well in dry, indoor conditions — think retail stores, reception areas, trade show booths, and corporate lobbies. For outdoor or high-moisture entrances, Royal Logo Mats offers alternative mat types specifically built for weather exposure.

It's straightforward. Prepare your logo or artwork in a vector format (PDF or EPS is preferred) for the sharpest print quality. Then get in touch with the team at Royal Logo Mats with your artwork, preferred size, and quantity. Their designers will guide you through the process and confirm everything looks right before production begins — so what you see is what you get on the floor.

Rubber-backed mats trap dirt, mud, and moisture from shoes, preventing debris from spreading across floors in busy commercial spaces.

High-quality rubber-backed mats can last around five years with proper care, even in busy workplaces with constant foot traffic.
