Floora, did you know that runner mats are the unsung champions of flooring protection? Whether you’re in a busy office or a high-traffic store, runner mats provide the perfect blend of functionality and style to protect your floors from the daily grind!

When it comes to choosing the right runner mat, it's all about finding the perfect fit for your needs:

  • Material Choices: Rubber mats offer excellent traction and durability, making them ideal for wet or slippery areas
  • Design & Aesthetics: Runner mats are available in a range of colors, patterns, and textures to complement any decor. Choose a mat that enhances your space — neutral tones for a sleek, professional look, or bold colors and patterns for a more dynamic, welcoming feel.

Buying Tip: Consider the dimensions of your space when choosing a runner mat. Measure your hallway, entryway, or corridor to ensure the mat covers the right amount of floor area. Longer mats work well in narrow hallways, while wider mats are great for large entryways or lobbies.

Thanks, Wally! Are you concerned about maintaining your runner mats? Keeping your mats in top shape is easier than you think and helps extend their life while keeping your space looking clean and professional. Here's how to care for your runner mats:


  • Regular Cleaning: Vacuum your runner mats regularly to remove dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with mild soap and water or follow the manufacturer’s instructions for washing. For rubber or vinyl mats, a simple hose-down can do wonders!
  • Rotate for Even Wear: Rotate your mats periodically, especially in high-traffic areas, to ensure they wear evenly and maintain their appearance over time.
  • Check for Damage: Inspect your mats regularly for signs of wear, such as fraying edges or thinning material. Addressing these issues early can help prevent trips and falls and extend the life of your mats.

Buying Tip: For spaces with LVT or commercial flooring, opt for runner mats with enhanced durability and wear resistance. This ensures that your mats can withstand heavy foot traffic while maintaining the appearance and integrity of your LVT floors.
