Will this work in the kitchen of a coffee cafe?
Our 8mm Strong Rubber Rolls can work as flooring in a commercial kitchen. These rolls are very slip resistant and are resistant to mold and mildew growth. Since these rolls are somewhat porous, we do recommend using our Rubber Floor Finish and Sealer on the floor to create a non-porous floor. Cleaning of our rubber flooring is very easy with the use of a mild soap and water solution and a synthetic mop.

Was this helpful?Can this floor be installed directly over an existing vinyl floor? The floor is going to be used for a pediatric physical therapy clinic.
You can install our 8mm Strong Rubber Rolls over an existing vinyl floor if you don't care about using the vinyl flooring as the main flooring surface going forward. Vinyl and rubber typically don't mix. Vinyl won't cause any issues to the rubber flooring, but the rubber flooring can potentially stain the vinyl. This process happens over a period of time and would make the vinyl unusable.

Was this helpful?I am building a couple of Rolle Bolle courts in the basement of my establishment. The existing floor is concrete. Rolle Bolle is a Belgian game that is usually played on a hard clay type surface. I am looking for something that can be replicated that as close as possible short of filling my basement with dirt. You can google Rolle Bolle and see what I am talking about. Can rubber flooring be used for this?

Was this helpful?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.

Was this helpful?If you put a weight stack on this, is anything needed so as to not leave a permanent compression in this flooring?
Depending on the weight and how long the weight stack is on the floor determines if a permanent indentation will occur. For most home gym installations, a weight stack on our 8mm Strong Rubber Rolls won't have a permanent indentation. For commercial installations, it is very likely there will be an indentation. There really isn't a great way to prevent a weight stack from leaving indentations. You could use furniture sliders, but you run the risk of the weight stack being unstable.
