Floor mats are mats used as floor coverings. These may be functional, ornamental or both. In their functional role, they act as a defense against dust, soil and moisture and provide an anti slippery surface in the slippery areas. These floor mats are designed to stay in place while letting slippery substances like grease, water and oil filter through them. This reduces the risks of accidents in both homes and workplaces. They can be used in cars, offices, houses, and factories either indoors or outdoors. Floor mats can be made from washable material and are often stain resistant.

Floor mats are created from a variety of materials. The choice of material can range from natural fibers like jute, sisal, reed and coconut fiber to almost any synthetic material. The one disadvantage of using natural materials is they often fade quickly when exposed to sunlight for long. A popular synthetic material used for manufacturing of floor mats is rubber. Rubber mats are tough and durable. They are made from molds, and can be made in many shapes and sizes.

Custom-made rubber mats have also become common. Rubber mats are not slippery and do not fade when exposed to direct sunlight. Rubber mats are washable and this makes them appealing to many. A mix and match of natural and synthetic materials is also quite popular in mats. Rubber backing on a natural fiber mat provides strength and durability. Aluminum mats are also becoming popular as logo mats. Because they are washable, weather resistant and tough, aluminum logo mats make a sensible corporate purchase.
