Why Choose Our Studded Penny Dot Rubber Flooring?
The raised circular stud pattern (penny dot design) provides superior anti-slip performance in both wet and dry conditions, making this the ideal choice for safety-critical environments. Unlike smooth rubber flooring, the textured surface channels water away and provides exceptional underfoot grip.

🎯 Perfect Applications & Use Cases
Commercial Gym Flooring: Free weights areas, cardio zones, functional training spaces, CrossFit boxes, and fitness studios. The penny dot pattern protects subfloors from dropped dumbbells while providing stable footing during dynamic movements.
Home Garage Flooring: Workshop areas, automotive repair spaces, tool storage zones, and general garage floors. Oil and chemical resistance makes this ideal for DIY mechanics and hobbyists.
Industrial Workshop Flooring: Manufacturing facilities, assembly lines, packing stations, and warehouse walkways. Anti-fatigue properties reduce worker strain during long shifts.
Equestrian & Stable Flooring: Horse box flooring, stable walkways, grooming areas, and wash bays. Drainage channels prevent water pooling and provide secure footing for horses.
Commercial Kitchens: Prep areas, dishwashing stations, and walk-in coolers. Slip-resistant surface meets health and safety requirements for wet environments.
Outdoor Applications: Ramps, walkways, decking overlays, and temporary event flooring. Weather-resistant construction withstands UK climate conditions.
🛠️ Professional Installation Guide
Surface Preparation: Ensure substrate is clean, dry, level, and free from dust, oil, or loose material. Concrete floors should be fully cured (minimum 28 days). Fill any cracks or holes with suitable floor levelling compound.
Installation Methods:
Method 1 - Loose Lay (Temporary): Suitable for areas under 10m². Simply unroll and position. Allow 24 hours acclimatization at room temperature before use. Ideal for rental properties or seasonal use.
Method 2 - Double-Sided Tape (Semi-Permanent): Apply heavy-duty carpet tape around perimeter and at 30cm intervals across width. Press firmly to bond. Suitable for domestic garages and light commercial use.
Method 3 - Contact Adhesive (Permanent): Apply polyurethane-based contact adhesive to both floor and rubber backing using notched trowel. Allow to become touch-dry (15-20 mins), then carefully position and roll with 50kg roller. This is the recommended method for commercial gyms and high-traffic areas.
Cutting & Trimming: Use a sharp Stanley knife and metal straight edge. Score deeply on first pass, then complete cut. For curves, use a template and cut in multiple shallow passes.
Joining Rolls: Butt edges tightly together - do not overlap. For seamless appearance, use rubber flooring seam sealer (available separately).
Pro Tip: Unroll rubber 24-48 hours before installation in the room where it will be fitted. This allows the material to relax and acclimatize, making installation easier and preventing edge curling.
🧽 Maintenance & Care Instructions
Daily Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum to remove loose dirt and debris. The studded surface traps particles effectively, preventing them from spreading.
Weekly Cleaning: Mop with warm water and pH-neutral floor cleaner. For gyms, use antibacterial cleaner to maintain hygiene standards. Avoid bleach-based products which can degrade rubber over time.
Deep Cleaning: For stubborn marks or oil stains, use a stiff brush with degreasing detergent. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
Longevity Tips: Place protective mats under extremely heavy static loads. Avoid dragging sharp metal objects across surface. Reapply adhesive at edges if lifting occurs.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I install this rubber flooring outdoors?
A: Yes, this rubber is UV stable and weather resistant, making it suitable for outdoor walkways, ramps, and covered areas. For fully exposed outdoor areas, we recommend permanent adhesive installation.
Q: Will this rubber flooring damage my concrete floor?
A: No, rubber flooring protects your subfloor from damage. It's commonly used to protect garage floors from oil stains, impact damage, and wear.
Q: How do I calculate how much I need?
A: Measure your area in metres. Each linear metre covers 1.2m² (1m length × 1.2m width). For a 4m × 3m room, you need 3 rolls of 4m length (total 12m linear = 14.4m² coverage).
Q: Can I use this in a home gym on the first floor?
A: Yes, the rubber provides excellent sound dampening and vibration reduction, making it ideal for upstairs gyms. It will protect your floor and reduce noise transmission to rooms below.
Q: Is this suitable for wheelchair access?
A: Yes, the 3mm thickness creates a minimal threshold and the studded surface provides grip for wheelchair users. Ensure edges are properly secured to prevent trip hazards.
Q: What's the difference between penny dot and other patterns?
A: Penny dot (circular studs) provides excellent multi-directional grip and is easier to clean than fine rib patterns. It's the preferred choice for gyms and workshops where debris needs to be swept away easily.
