Was this helpful?How would these work on a tile floor? I have some interlocking mats I could put down and then have these shock absorbent on the top, but I am still worried about shattering my tile.
Our 3/4" Shock Mats would be one of the best products to use over a tiled floor. These rubber mats are extra thick and would help to deaden the blow of a dropped weight so that it does not travel to the subfloor below. You can always put flooring over the tile and then add these mats, but the mats on their own would be sufficient to keep your tiled floor safe.
