Did You Know?

One in five falls causes serious injury, with over 800,000 patients a year getting hospitalized because of a fall injury. If you have a building that the general public uses, then you’ll want to reduce the risk of someone falling while on your property. A WaterHog mat can do just that. 

These mats are more than just a slip and fall preventer, though. They are an opportunity to set your building’s tone, welcome visitors, and be another piece in your brand building puzzle. 

You’ll benefit from these six qualities when you add a WaterHog mat to your doorway. 

1. Create a Warm Welcome 

Set the right tone for your office space, hotel, or store with a WaterHog floor mat at the entrance. A Water Hog mat warmly welcomes visitors with its quality construction Eco-Friendly PET polyester fibers and a 100 percent SBR rubber backing.

These commercial grade mats are fast-drying, static resistant, and fade resistant. This ensures that your entrance will continue to look well cared for. 

2. Keep Your Floors Cleaner 

You have an elegant marble floor in the lobby of your hotel. Perhaps the main office of your school has polished linoleum. These materials look beautiful but can become slippery death traps when wet. 

WaterHog doormats have a unique “water dam” edge that traps water. A single mat can prevent up to one and a half gallons of water per square yard from escaping onto your floors. 

3. Set the Right Tone 

Unlike plain commercial doormats, WaterHog mats combine style and function. Set the tone for those coming into your space with a styled mat. A classic half-moon shape with an elegant oval fan design is perfect for an upscale hotel or formal office space. 

A rectangular or square mat with a diamond, chevron, contemporary swirl, or parquet pattern is perfect for your commercial space, school, church, or retail location. These patterns add a subtle accent and texture without being overwhelming. 

4. Increased Safety 

Consumer-grade mats have lower-quality rubber backings. This causes them to slide or move around. This movement creates a safety risk that’s worse than not having any mat at all. 

The WaterHog commercial floor mat has a reinforced bi-level rubber backing. It resists curling and cracking while being safe for concrete, linoleum, tile, terrazzo, asphalt, wood, marble, and vinyl. A cleated version is available for placement over carpeting. 

5. Branding Opportunity 

Chose a WaterHog Impressions HD Logo mat and you could have the logo of your hotel, retail store, or school printed on the mat. This is a perfect opportunity for branding within your location. 

Choose from the richly hued background colors, mat size, orientation, and border style. You’ll upload your logo and have a custom creation for every entrance of your commercial space. 

6. Customization 

Choose from 16 different styles and up to 20 fabric colors and several sizes to create the perfect mat for your needs. 

There are even eco-friendly options. These mats are constructed of 100 percent recycled materials and have a backing that uses 15 to 20 percent of recycled material. You can make a statement about green awareness without sacrificing performance.
