Carpeted mats have been used for years, and for a good reason.They are cost-effective, practical, and they protect your other floor surfaces, such as tile and hardwood, from scuffs and scrapes of office furniture. They are also very versatile and they can be used both in residential homes and in retail buildings. If you have purchased a carpet for your retail building, then you surely know that placement is important. This is why it is important to know that the two primary aspects you need to consider are the placement and the versatility of the mats.

Placement

A good rule of thumb is that carpeted mats should be placed around high traffic areas and heavy wear areas. This way they not only protect the flooring, but also prevent slip and fallswhich can lead to lawsuits or workers compensation claims. It is important to opt for plastic-backed carpeted mats that are designed to hold in moisture if you plan to place them right at the entrance in the building, in other areas exposed to weather, or places where spills may occur. It is highly recommended to opt for mats that come with a special anti-slip backing that adds to their safety in these areas.

Versatility

You can opt for custom carpeted mats with your company logo or name of the company, as this will certainly help you increase brand awareness. And besides, it is one of the cheapest forms of marketing, as you need the carpets anyway. Also, with carpeted mats, they can be relocated anywhere at any time.
