The M+A Matting WaterHog Classic Mat in Charcoal is an entrance mat designed to keep floors cleaner and drier by scraping and trapping dirt and moisture beneath foot level. Its bi-level surface with a waffle pattern is paired with a water dam border to hold liquids, reducing tracking and helping moisture stay off interior flooring. The surface fibers are solution-dyed PET, which resists staining and fading while drying quickly, and the backing uses SBR rubber that contains 20% post-consumer recycled rubber from car tires for an environmentally considerate construction. The mat features beveled edges to provide a safe transition from floor to mat and is certified high-traction by the National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI). In addition, reinforced rubber nubs help prevent wear of the pile and support long-term performance, with edges that resist cracking or curling to maintain a flat, secure fit.
This WaterHog Classic mat is suitable for use as an entrance mat in commercial or industrial facilities where heavy foot traffic is expected and where moisture and dirt containment are priorities. Please note that mat sizes are approximate due to natural rubber expansion and contraction with temperature changes, with a tolerable manufacturing variance of 3-5%. The product is offered in a Charcoal color and uses a needle-punched construction with a thickness of 78 mil, weighing 24 ounces per square yard, ensuring a robust surface that still remains flexible for doorways and entry zones. Each unit is packaged individually.
Why these details matter: the bi-level design and water dam border are functional features intended to minimize floor cleaning needs by trapping moisture beneath foot level, while the solution-dyed fibers and recycled rubber backing contribute to durability and color retention over time. Knowing the materials, construction, and size tolerance helps buyers choose the right mat for a given doorway width, traffic level, and cleaning routine.
