Elevators are specially designed to transport people and cargo from one level to another. They experience heavy foot traffic, especially in commercial buildings, residential buildings, department stores and hospitals. Property managers look for reliable solutions to cover elevator floors with a durable, easy-to-clean material that creates an environment with increased traction and slip resistance.

One of these solutions are precisely rubber floor coverings for elevators, which provide both safety and easy cleaning.

What are rubber floor coverings for elevators?

Rubber floor coverings for elevators are a modern type of flooring with coin-shaped studs on the surface. They increase friction between an object and the floor to prevent slipping and shifting of cargo or people inside the elevator. The elevator floor must be durable and easy to clean, while also matching the aesthetics of the building in which it is located. 

In the case of an elevator cabin, the rubber floor covering should be properly tailored to the floor dimensions so that it does not move during intensive use and provides a stable surface for passengers and transported goods.

Rubber floor coverings and rubber mats for elevators are products available in different lengths, roll widths and thicknesses, made from solid rubber or another high-quality rubber compound. This is a wear-resistant type of flooring whose purpose is to ensure user safety and protect the elevator from damage while maintaining the highest quality and low abrasion.

Rubber floor coverings are cut to fit the elevator dimensions so they do not shift and do not endanger user safety.

Coin-pattern rubber floor coverings for elevators

A specific variety in which rubber mats are available are coin-pattern floor coverings. They usually come in black and gray, but they can also be found in other variants — everything depends on the roll color the customer orders. 

Coin-pattern rubber floor coverings for elevators are characterized by special coin-shaped studs on the surface. They are produced from high-grade compounds using the latest technology. The specially designed studs on the surface increase anti-slip properties because any liquids, such as rain carried on shoe soles, collect between them, preventing accidental falls on a slippery surface. Moreover, this type of covering is resistant to abrasion and material aging, which attests to its high quality.

Metro rubber floorings (coin tread) - Advantages and benefits of use

The elevator floor plays a key role both from the design perspective and for the safety and functionality of the elevator. It must be durable and solid to withstand continuous use, while also being visually attractive.

In our offer you will find rubber floor coverings guaranteed to be of the highest quality, which we cut to customer specifications from a roll 1.4 m wide. They have many advantages, and their use provides many benefits; here are some of them:

Durability and strength

Every rubber floor covering for elevators offered by Power Rubber is a good investment that proves effective especially in areas with high traffic over a long time. The product is durable and sturdy, as well as resistant to dents and abrasion. Rubber floors naturally have high tensile strength and resistance to excessive wear caused by exposure to atmospheric factors. They retain integrity and aesthetic qualities even in difficult conditions.

Safety

Anti-slip surface

The anti-slip covering with a textured surface has a high coefficient of friction, thereby increasing grip on wet and slippery floors, minimizing the risk of accidents caused by slipping or falling, which is extremely important in commercial environments.

Shock absorption

Rubber mats are flexible and resilient, allowing them to withstand impacts and vibrations without damage. Their cushioning properties make them a very good choice in areas where people stand for long periods. This type of flooring is significantly more comfortable for the feet compared to concrete or wood.

Easy to maintain

An elevator floor covering is an excellent solution for areas exposed to continuous foot and goods traffic. A rubber mat will capture almost all moisture and dirt from shoe soles, preventing contamination from spreading to other floors of the building. The textured surface helps remove not only dirt but also snow and salt from shoes. After installation, rubber floors are very easy to keep clean (they can be washed with standard floor cleaning agents). Rubber mats for elevators are cut to size, so they fit perfectly in any space.

Floor protection

Coin-pattern rubber mats protect the original flooring from the penetration of dirt, moisture and other contaminants as well as from scratches and other damage. They effectively absorb impacts while being resistant to scratches and tears.

Comfort

We offer rubber floor coverings with anti-fatigue properties that increase the comfort of employees and customers while riding the elevator up and down. Moreover, rubber sheets reduce noise, providing an effective acoustic barrier.

Coin-pattern rubber flooring – applications

Corridors, walkways, elevators (freight elevators, passenger elevators, hospital elevators, etc.), public utility buildings are classified as the most strategic places to install rubber floor mats in commercial and residential buildings. Due to their anti-slip properties, wear resistance, waterproofness, and safety of use, the mats are also a popular choice in garages, basements, warehouses, sports and recreational facilities (gyms, playgrounds, ice rinks, swimming pools). They are also used to protect floors.

Rubber flooring for elevators – specifications

Both floor coverings and rubber mats, in order to perform their function, must be products of the highest quality. Each roll differs in dimensions and parameters such as color, length, thickness and width. We sell floor coverings in black, gray and other color variants. Rolls used as rubber flooring for elevators can have a width of 1200 - 1500 mm, thickness of 3 mm (the most popular), 4 mm, 5 mm and a length between 5 m and 10 m. Every customer can find a product that meets their expectations even if non-standard parameters are required. We guarantee a quick order fulfillment time.

What can rubber floor coverings for elevators be made of?

Besides having different dimensions, a rubber floor covering for an elevator can also be made from several types of rubber. The most commonly used materials in production are SBR, NBR and EPDM rubber. How do they differ?

  • a rubber floor covering for an elevator made from SBR rubbers is primarily resistant to various forces, making it difficult to wear away and damage its deeper layers

  • a rubber floor covering made from NBR guarantees resistance to all kinds of oils, greases, alcohols and hydraulic fluids, so it can be cleaned easily without fear of damaging its structure

  • a rubber floor covering for an elevator made from EPDM is resistant to most corrosive substances; it is also impervious to moisture and shocks, making it difficult to produce any deformations on it

In order for rubber floor coverings to be put into use, they must be properly tested. The covering must ensure safety during use, so it is required that all floor coverings are manufactured in accordance with the ISO 9001:2009 quality management system, which guarantees high product quality.
