Mats and Runners Guide

Mats/Runners are versatile floor coverings designed to provide both functionality and aesthetic appeal across various settings. Typically made from materials such as rubber, nylon, polyester, or natural fibers like coir, mats and runners serve multiple purposes including protecting floors from dirt and wear, enhancing safety with slip-resistant properties, and adding a decorative touch to spaces. Mats come in a variety of sizes, from small entry mats to large area mats, while runners are elongated mats used in hallways or high-traffic areas to offer continuous coverage. They are available in a wide range of colors, patterns, and textures to complement different interior designs, and can be customized to display logos or specific designs. Mats and runners also contribute to ease of maintenance by trapping dust and moisture, thereby reducing cleaning efforts and prolonging the lifespan of underlying flooring.
