๐ง Installation Guide

- Measure & Cut: Use a sharp utility knife and straight edge to trim to size โ allow 5mm expansion gap at walls
- Secure (Optional): For permanent installation, use rubber flooring adhesive. For temporary/removable use, the weight of the rubber keeps it in place
- Seam Joining: Butt edges together for a seamless finish, or use double-sided flooring tape for high-traffic areas
๐งผ Maintenance & Care
Our rubber kennel flooring is designed for minimal maintenance. For daily cleaning, simply sweep away debris and mop with warm water and pet-safe disinfectant. For deeper cleaning, the smooth surface can be pressure washed or steam cleaned. Avoid using petroleum-based solvents which may damage rubber over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does an anti-fatigue mat reduce discomfort?
Anti-fatigue mats encourage subtle muscle movement in the legs and feet, improving blood circulation. This reduces the fatigue, discomfort, and long-term musculoskeletal issues associated with prolonged standing.
What thickness anti-fatigue mat is best for industrial use?
For industrial and manufacturing environments, 12โ15mm is the standard recommendation. Thicker mats offer more cushioning but may create a trip hazard at edges โ look for bevelled edges.
Can I use anti-fatigue mats in wet areas?
Yes โ our anti-fatigue mats are available in closed-cell and open-link designs suitable for wet environments. They drain well and resist oils, chemicals, and moisture.
Are anti-fatigue mats suitable for home office standing desks?
Absolutely. Anti-fatigue mats are popular for home office standing desks. A 10โ12mm mat with a smooth surface and bevelled edges works well in domestic settings.
How do I clean an anti-fatigue mat?
Most anti-fatigue mats can be cleaned with warm soapy water and a mop or cloth. Oil-resistant variants withstand degreaser cleaning in workshop environments.
