Any reason NOT to use rubber on a residential kitchen floor?
You can use our 8mm Strong Rubber Rolls as a kitchen floor. Our rubber flooring is very slip resistant and more slip resistant when wet, so you won't have to worry about slipping if some water were to get on the floor unlike when you have a tile or vinyl floor. Rubber is also shock absorbent, so if you were to drop something, it is more than likely to bounce rather than shatter into a million pieces. Now, rubber flooring is somewhat porous, so if you were to spill something and let it dry out, some of the dried up material might get in the floor, but not through. To prevent this, we recommend sealing the rubber flooring with our Rubber Floor Finish and Sealer. This will keep all the great benefits of having a rubber floor while making your rubber floor easier to clean and maintain.
