Super Scrape Rubber Logo Mats put your logo on a mat that earns its place at the door. The nitrile rubber surface uses raised circular cleats to scrape dirt and water off shoes before they reach your floors, and the artwork is set into the rubber rather than coated on top — so the branding holds up through heavy traffic instead of scuffing away. They're among the most rugged of our outdoor logo mats, built for real commercial use indoors or out.
The logo is digitally printed on a polymeric film, then heat-pressed into the nitrile rubber so it becomes part of the mat. That process reproduces photo-realistic detail — multi-color artwork, tones, and gradients all come through cleanly, which is what separates these printed floor mats from simple one-color welcome mats. You get 150 standard colors to work from, with PMS matching available — up to four PMS colors per design — when a logo has to be exact.
The raised cleats give the mat a high-traction surface that's certified by the National Floor Safety Institute, which matters at a wet entrance where a slip turns into a liability claim. The all-nitrile build also resists oils and chemicals, so the mat holds up at tougher doorways — entries near commercial kitchens, service bays, and manufacturing floors — not just clean lobby entrances. It works indoors or out, though under constant direct sun the printed color softens over time.
The mat comes in standard sizes from 2.5' x 3' up to 6' x 8', so most entrances are covered without custom cutting — what's custom is the artwork, built to your logo and colors. Cleaning is simple: shake or sweep off loose debris and hose it down, or have it commercially laundered. Plan to replace it when the cleats wear smooth or the printed color has faded enough to lose its punch at the door.

Frequently Asked Questions
How well does the logo hold up outdoors and under heavy traffic?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
Better than a surface-printed mat. The artwork is printed on a film and heat-pressed into the nitrile rubber, so it's set into the mat instead of sitting on top as a coating that can scuff or peel. Under heavy door traffic, the raised cleats usually wear smooth before the logo gives out. Outdoors, direct sun is the limiting factor — the color softens gradually over the years rather than failing all at once.
Can you match our exact brand colors?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
Yes. There are 150 standard colors to work from, which covers most logos as they are. When a brand needs precise color, PMS matching is available for up to four colors per design. Because the image is digitally printed before it's pressed into the rubber, photo-realistic detail holds up — multi-color marks, gradients, and fine type come through cleanly instead of being simplified into flat blocks.
What artwork do you need from us, and how detailed can the logo get?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
Print-ready artwork works best — vector files or high-resolution images reproduce most cleanly. The process handles real detail, including photo-realistic images, multi-color designs, and shaded tones. As a rule of thumb, keep text at least half an inch tall and lines at least a sixteenth of an inch thick so they hold up in production. Send us the logo and the size you need, and we'll confirm how it reproduces before anything is made.
Can these go near kitchens or areas with oil and chemicals?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
Yes — that's one of the real advantages of nitrile rubber. Standard rubber softens and breaks down with regular oil and chemical exposure, while nitrile resists both. That lets the mat hold up at doorways near commercial kitchens, auto and service bays, manufacturing floors, and food-service areas, where a standard logo mat would degrade.

Berber Logo Mats put your logo at the door on a looped berber surface — a tight, low-profile weave with a subtle hobnail texture that reads as upscale rather than promotional. The logo is digitally printed in high definition, so the artwork stays crisp, and the same tight weave that holds the print also scrapes dirt and moisture off shoes before either reaches your floor.
What a Berber Logo Mat Does Before Your Brand Looks Tired at the Door
A logo mat is doing two jobs from the moment someone walks up: it shows your brand and it protects the floor. ISSA field data shows a building takes on up to 12 times more dirt during wet weather, and it takes six to eight steps to walk a sole dry. A mat that catches that grit keeps your entrance clean — and keeps the logo from sitting in a smear of tracked-in dirt.
The looped berber weave is tight enough to scrape and hold dirt and moisture, so the floor past the mat stays cleaner and the logo stays legible instead of muddy. That matters because a worn or grimy logo mat does the opposite of its job — it makes the brand look neglected at the exact spot where a visitor forms a first impression.
Why Berber Loop, and Why This One
The surface is needle-punched PET fiber, about 44 ounces per square yard, made with at least 80% recycled content reclaimed from plastic bottles. The loop-pile berber has a smooth, even face, which is what lets the logo print crisply — the artwork is built up in layers of color and matched to a standard palette of 56 colors, so edges and lettering stay sharp.
Berber's tight weave is the durable part. It stands up to heavy foot traffic without the surface breaking down, and the hobnail texture gives it an upscale look that plain printed mats miss. The fiber is naturally stain- and fade-resistant, so the logo holds its color through regular cleaning rather than washing out after a season.
Underneath is an SBR rubber backing that contains 20% recycled tire content and keeps the mat in place to cut slipping. You can spec a universal cleated backing for carpet or a smooth backing for hard floors, and the whole mat sits low — easy to clean by vacuuming or hosing off, and low enough not to catch a door swing.
Where It Belongs (and Where It Doesn't)
This is a branding mat for indoor and covered-outdoor entries — lobbies, front desks, storefronts, building entrances, and anywhere you want a company logo greeting people as they arrive. As premium carpet logo mats go, the berber loop is on the upscale end, and it works equally well as commercial rugs with logo inside reception areas and retail floors.
What it is not is a full-sun outdoor mat. The print fades in direct sunlight, so it belongs under a canopy, an overhang, a vestibule, or indoors — not exposed on an open sidewalk. It's also a branding mat that catches dirt and moisture, not an aggressive scraper for mud and gravel; keep the heaviest debris to a coarse outdoor mat and let the berber handle the finish and the logo.
Three Things to Check Before You Spec It
Three things decide whether a berber logo mat is the right call.
First, the light. The print fades in direct sun, so this mat is for covered or indoor spots only. If your entrance faces open sky for hours a day, a different construction will hold its color better — be honest about the exposure before you commit the logo to it.
Second, the artwork. Logos print best with text at least 1.5 inches tall and lines no thinner than a quarter inch, and very fine detail or pale backgrounds don't translate well — light colors also show dirt faster. Simple, bold artwork in darker or neutral tones reads cleanly and stays looking sharp.
Third, the floor and the size. Choose a cleated backing for carpet or a smooth one for hard floors, and size the mat to the traffic, not just the doorway — aim to cover the six-to-eight steps it takes to dry a sole. Standard sizes run up to 6'×12', with custom lengths to 20 feet.
Why Mats Inc.
Mats Inc. has specified commercial matting since 1964, so when you're putting your brand on the floor, you're working with people who know which logo construction survives your specific entrance — and which will fade or flatten in it. We help you set up the artwork inside the print limits, pick the backing for your floor, and size the run so the mat protects as well as it presents. For the rest of the range, start with our commercial entrance mats.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the logo actually printed, and will it stay sharp?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
The logo is built up in layers of color on the smooth berber surface and matched to a standard palette of 56 colors. That layering is what gives the high-definition look — crisp edges and clean lettering — as long as the artwork respects the print limits: text at least 1.5 inches tall, lines no thinner than a quarter inch, and no fine tints or transparencies. Bold, simple artwork holds up best. The fiber is naturally stain- and fade-resistant, so the print stays sharp through regular cleaning rather than washing out.
How well does it hold up to heavy traffic?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
The tight berber weave is the durable part — it's built to take heavy foot traffic without the surface breaking down, and the hobnail loop holds its texture rather than crushing flat the way a softer pile would. A mat that mats down stops scraping and starts looking worn, so that crush resistance is what keeps both the logo and the floor protection working.
The one thing that shortens its life is sunlight: the print fades in direct sun, so a covered or indoor spot is essential. Used under cover and cleaned regularly — vacuumed, or hosed off and hung to dry — it holds its look for years.
Can I put it outside?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
Only under cover. Berber logo mats are made for indoor and covered-outdoor entries — under a canopy, in a vestibule, or inside a lobby. They're not built for full sun, because the print fades when it's exposed directly, and they're branding mats rather than coarse scrapers for mud and gravel. The best setup outdoors is a rugged scraper mat first to take the heavy debris, with the berber logo mat just inside or under the overhang where it stays clean, dry, and out of direct light.
What sizes can I get?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
Standard sizes run from 2'×3' up to 6'×12', and custom lengths are available in standard widths up to 20 feet — useful for a wide storefront entry or a long lobby walkway.
Size it to the traffic, not just the door opening. Aim to cover the six-to-eight steps it takes to dry a sole, so the mat protects the floor and shows the logo at full size rather than getting walked past in a stride or two.
What does it look like, and what colors are there?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
It has an upscale, low-profile look — the looped berber weave with a subtle hobnail texture reads as refined rather than promotional, which suits a polished lobby or reception area. There are 56 standard colors to build the logo and background from, so you can match a brand palette closely. One tip: skip very light background colors, since pale tones show tracked-in dirt faster — darker or neutral backgrounds keep the mat looking clean longer between cleanings.
Can it match our exact brand colors, and what artwork works best?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
Colors are matched to a standard 56-color palette rather than exact PMS values, so it's a close brand match within that range rather than a precise ink match — worth knowing if your brand standard is strict. For artwork, bold logos and clear lettering reproduce beautifully; very fine detail, thin lines, gradients, and transparencies don't translate well to the woven surface. Send us your logo and we'll tell you straight whether it'll read well at mat scale or needs a small adjustment first.

Wonder Pro Matting is a plush, cut-pile olefin entrance mat made to soak up water and fine dust at the door, in a deep range of colors. Where some entrance mats scrape coarse grit, this one is built to wipe shoes clean and hold moisture and fine dirt — pulling it off the sole and keeping it on the mat, so a medium-traffic interior stays cleaner and drier past the threshold.
What Wonder Pro Matting Does Before Water and Dust Reach Your Floor
Most of what dirties an interior floor comes in on shoes — not just mud, but fine dust and moisture you don't always see. ISSA field data shows a building takes on up to 12 times more dirt during wet weather, and it takes six to eight steps to walk a sole dry. A mat at the door is where that gets caught before it spreads onto the floor.
Wonder Pro is built for the fine stuff. The plush cut-pile olefin face holds water and fine dirt rather than letting it pass through — it retains about 60% more liquid and fine dust than a standard mat — and a vinyl backing acts as a moisture barrier, keeping what the mat collects off the floor underneath instead of soaking through to it.
Why a Plush Olefin Surface, and Why This One
The face is cut-pile olefin — a dense, soft polypropylene pile that behaves like carpet and holds moisture deep in the fibers. That plush surface is what lets it pull moisture from shoes: a sole sinks slightly into the pile and leaves water and fine dust behind. The olefin resists fading, staining, mold, and mildew, so it keeps its look and doesn't turn musty as it works.
Underneath is a DINP-free PVC vinyl backing that doubles as a moisture barrier — it grips the floor and stops the water the mat holds from reaching the surface below. This mat holds moisture and fine dust rather than scraping coarse grit: it's rated for medium interior traffic and tuned for the fine stuff, not for knocking heavy mud off boots.
It also comes in a deep set of colors — Black, Castellan Red, Charcoal, Marlin Blue, Pebble Brown, and Walnut — so the mat can match a lobby or reception scheme rather than just sit there in standard gray. The colors are part of the point: this is the entrance mat for spots where the floor is on show.
Where It Belongs (and Where It Doesn't)
This is an interior, medium-traffic mat for spaces where appearance and a clean, dry floor both matter — office building lobbies, small retail floors, banks, churches, motels, and reception areas. It shines a few steps inside the door, finishing the job of drying shoes and catching the fine dust a coarse mat misses.
Where it's the wrong call is outdoors or against heavy mud and grit. As a plush mat it isn't built to scrape coarse debris or take the weather, and a flood of mud would clog the pile. The right setup is a scraper outside or at the first door, with Wonder Pro inside to finish the job — and to look good doing it.
Three Things to Check Before You Spec It
Three things decide whether Wonder Pro fits your entrance.
First, where it sits. Wonder Pro is a moisture-and-dust mat for the interior, after coarse debris is mostly off. If it's the only mat facing a muddy or gritty entrance, it'll load up faster than it can handle; paired with a scraper ahead of it, it does its job for years.
Second, the size. It comes in standard sizes from 2'×3' up to 6'×10', plus rolls and custom sizes up to 11'9" wide — useful for a wide lobby run or an odd opening. Size it to cover the steps it takes to dry a sole, not just the doorway.
Third, the color and the look. With six colors to choose from, pick a tone that fits the space and hides traffic — darker shades like Charcoal and Walnut stay looking clean longer between cleanings, while a color like Marlin Blue or Castellan Red can pick up a brand or interior accent.
Why Mats Inc.
Mats Inc. has specified commercial matting since 1964, so when the floor at your entrance is on display, we help you choose a mat that protects it and looks right doing it — matching the surface, size, and color to the space and the traffic. We'll also tell you when a spot needs a coarse scraper ahead of a plush mat like this rather than the plush mat alone. For the rest of the indoor range, see our all indoor entrance mats.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a plush mat hold dirt and water?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
It's the opposite approach to a hard scraper. The face is a dense cut-pile olefin — a soft, carpet-like pile — and when a shoe presses into it, water and fine dust transfer off the sole and settle down between the fibers, where they stay instead of being tracked on. The pile holds about 60% more liquid and fine dirt than a standard mat. Underneath, a vinyl backing works as a moisture barrier, so the water the mat collects stays in the pile and off the floor below.
How much traffic can it handle, and what wears it out?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
It's rated for medium interior traffic — office lobbies, retail floors, reception areas, and similar spaces. In those spots it holds up for years, and the olefin resists fading, staining, mold, and mildew, so it keeps its look and doesn't turn musty as it absorbs moisture.
What wears it out early is the wrong job. A plush pile clogs and mats down if it's left to face heavy mud and grit alone, or placed where far more traffic crosses it than it's rated for. Keep it to medium interior traffic, with coarse debris handled ahead of it, and it lasts.
Can I use it outdoors, and how do I clean it?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
Keep it indoors. Wonder Pro is built for interior medium traffic — it isn't made for weather or for scraping heavy outdoor grit, so an exposed exterior door will wear it down fast. Inside, it's the mat that finishes drying shoes a few steps in. To clean it, vacuum regularly and extract or hose it off when it's heavily soiled, then let it dry fully before it goes back down — the olefin resists mold and mildew, but any mat works best dry.
What sizes can I get, and can it be made to fit?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
Standard sizes run from 2'×3' up to 6'×10', and it also comes in 60-foot rolls. If you need a custom size, it can be made up to 11'9" wide and 60 feet long — wide enough for a full lobby run or an unusual opening.
Size it to the traffic path, not just the door, so it covers the steps it takes to dry a sole. And if the mat will sit out in the open rather than wall-to-wall, ask for edged ends — standard rolls ship without edging unless you specify it.
What does it look like, and what colors are there?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
It has a plush, carpet-like surface that looks more finished and softer underfoot than a hard ribbed or rubber mat — a good fit for a lobby, bank, church, or reception area where the entrance is on display. There are six colors: Black, Castellan Red, Charcoal, Marlin Blue, Pebble Brown, and Walnut. The colors resist fading and staining, and darker tones like Charcoal and Walnut keep looking clean longer between cleanings, while Castellan Red or Marlin Blue can pick up a brand or interior accent.
Can I match it to our space or get a custom size?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
On size, yes — custom dimensions up to 11'9" by 60 feet mean you can fit a wide entry or a specific footprint rather than settling for the nearest stock size. On color, the six-color range lets you tie the mat to an interior scheme or a brand palette.
If you want an actual printed logo at the door, that's a different construction — a logo mat — and we can point you to one. Wonder Pro itself is about a clean, colored, plush surface that protects the floor and looks the part, rather than carrying artwork.

Cross-Over Matting is a loop-pile entrance mat that scrapes debris and moisture off shoes at the door while starting to dry them — the middle step in a layered entrance setup, between the coarse mat outside and the absorbent mat inside. The looped olefin surface is abrasive enough to clean shoes and resilient enough to hold its look in steady commercial traffic.
What Cross-Over Matting Does Before Dirt and Water Reach Your Floor
Dirt and water come into a building on shoes — and one mat at the threshold usually can't catch all of it. ISSA field data shows a building takes on up to 12 times more dirt during wet weather, and it takes six to eight steps to walk a sole dry. The most effective entrances use more than one mat to catch debris in stages.
Cross-Over is built to be the middle of that sequence. Its abrasive loop-pile surface scrapes off the grit and moisture a coarse outdoor mat leaves behind, and the sturdy olefin fibers begin drying the shoe before someone steps onto the floor or onto a softer absorbent mat further in. It's non-absorbent by design — it cleans the shoe and passes it along rather than soaking up and holding water.
Why a Loop-Pile Olefin Surface, and Why This One
The surface is a loop pile built from polypropylene ribbon yarn and continuous filament yarn — a combination that gives it an abrasive, hard-wearing texture rather than a soft plush one. That loop scrapes debris off the bottom of shoes and resists crushing, so it keeps its cleaning bite and its appearance instead of matting down into flat lanes under traffic.
The olefin fiber resists fading and crushing, which is what lets a loop-pile mat keep a tidy, finished look at a visible entrance over time. The loop construction reads richer than a flat ribbed mat, so it suits a lobby or front-of-house spot where appearance counts — while still doing real scraping work.
Underneath is a DINP-free PVC vinyl backing that grips the floor and protects it from whatever the mat scrapes off. It holds the mat flat on hard floors and low carpet, and at 5/16 inch the whole mat stays low enough not to catch a door swing or trip a foot at the edge.
Where It Belongs (and Where It Doesn't)
Cross-Over fits interior, medium-traffic entrances — convenience stores, restaurants, hotels, theaters, museums, and convention centers, where a steady stream of people crosses the threshold and the entrance is on view. It's certified high-traction by the National Floor Safety Institute, so it gives a safe surface where shoes arrive wet.
Where it falls short is as a building's only mat or as an outdoor scraper. It's the middle of a system, not the whole system: against heavy mud it wants a coarse scraper ahead of it, and because it's non-absorbent, a wet climate benefits from an absorbent mat inside it to finish the drying. Outdoors and in full weather, it isn't the right construction.
Three Things to Check Before You Spec It
Three things decide whether Cross-Over fits your entrance.
First, the rest of your matting. Cross-Over works best as the middle mat — a coarse scraper outside, this loop-pile mat at the door, and an absorbent mat inside. If it's going in alone, be honest about how much dirt and water it'll face, because one mat rarely catches it all.
Second, the size. Standard sizes run from 2'×3' up to 6'×10', and larger sizes over 6 feet — up to 11'9" — are made by seaming. Plan for that seam on the widest runs, and size the mat to cover the steps it takes to dry a sole, not just the doorway.
Third, the floor and the finish. The vinyl backing suits hard floors and low carpet and protects the surface beneath. If the mat will sit out in the open rather than wall-to-wall, order edged ends — standard rolls ship without edging unless you ask for it.
Why Mats Inc.
Mats Inc. has specified commercial entrance matting since 1964, so we don't just sell you a mat — we help you build the entrance. For a real front door we'll map the whole sequence, from the coarse scraper outside to the loop-pile mat at the threshold to the absorbent mat inside, and tell you where Cross-Over fits in yours. We match construction to traffic and size to the doorway. For the rest of the indoor range, see our all indoor entrance mats.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does a loop-pile mat clean shoes?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
The surface is a loop pile made from polypropylene ribbon and filament yarn — a tough, slightly abrasive texture rather than a soft plush one. As a shoe crosses it, the loops scrape grit and surface moisture off the sole, and the olefin fibers start drying the shoe. It's non-absorbent on purpose: instead of soaking up and holding water like a plush mat, it cleans the shoe and passes it along, which is why it works best as one mat in a layered entrance rather than the only one.
Will it crush down or fade in a busy entrance?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
It's built to resist both. The loop-pile construction is crush-resistant, so it holds its texture instead of matting flat into shiny traffic lanes, and the olefin fiber resists fading, so the color stays even at a visible entrance. Those two things are what usually go first on a loop mat, and they're the ones this construction is made to hold.
It's rated for medium interior traffic — convenience stores, restaurants, hotels, and similar spots. Pushed past that, or left to face heavy mud alone, any loop mat loads up and wears faster, so the way to get years out of it is to keep it to medium traffic with coarser debris handled ahead of it.
Can I use it by itself, or outdoors?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
It's designed as the middle mat in a layered entrance, not a standalone or an outdoor mat. The best setup is a coarse scraper outside to take heavy debris, Cross-Over at the threshold to scrape off what's left and start drying, and an absorbent mat just inside to finish — because Cross-Over is non-absorbent, it doesn't hold much water on its own. Used alone at a busy or wet door, more gets past it than you'd want; outdoors, it isn't built for the weather.
What sizes can I get?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
Standard sizes run from 2'×3' up to 6'×10', and it comes in 60-foot rolls. Larger mats over 6 feet — up to 11'9" — are made by seaming panels together, so a wide lobby run is possible, just with a seam in it.
Size the mat to the traffic path, not only the door, so it covers the steps it takes to dry a sole. If it'll sit out in the open rather than wall-to-wall, ask for edged ends — standard rolls ship without edging unless you specify it.
What does it look like, and what colors are there?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
The loop-pile surface has a richer, more textured look than a flat ribbed or rubber mat, which is why it suits a front-of-house entrance — a hotel lobby, a restaurant, a museum — where the floor is on display. It comes in two two-tone colors, Brown and Gray, both designed to blend with common interior schemes and hide tracked-in dirt between cleanings. The two-tone effect helps the mat read as finished rather than utilitarian while it does its work.
Can I get it in a custom size or with our logo?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
On size, yes within limits — beyond the standard sizes, widths over 6 feet up to 11'9" are made by seaming, so you can cover a wider entrance with a seam in the mat. On a logo, no: Cross-Over is a plain two-color loop mat, not a printed or logo construction. If you want branding at the door, that's a different product — a logo mat — and we can point you to one. For a clean, hard-wearing mat that looks the part at a front entrance, Cross-Over does that without the artwork.

Used alone at a busy or wet door, more gets past it than you'd want; outdoors, it isn't built for the weather.
What sizes can I get?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
Standard sizes run from 2'×3' up to 6'×10', and it comes in 60-foot rolls. Larger mats over 6 feet — up to 11'9" — are made by seaming panels together, so a wide lobby run is possible, just with a seam in it.
Size the mat to the traffic path, not only the door, so it covers the steps it takes to dry a sole. If it'll sit out in the open rather than wall-to-wall, ask for edged ends — standard rolls ship without edging unless you specify it.
What does it look like, and what colors are there?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
The loop-pile surface has a richer, more textured look than a flat ribbed or rubber mat, which is why it suits a front-of-house entrance — a hotel lobby, a restaurant, a museum — where the floor is on display. It comes in two two-tone colors, Brown and Gray, both designed to blend with common interior schemes and hide tracked-in dirt between cleanings. The two-tone effect helps the mat read as finished rather than utilitarian while it does its work.
Can I get it in a custom size or with our logo?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
On size, yes within limits — beyond the standard sizes, widths over 6 feet up to 11'9" are made by seaming, so you can cover a wider entrance with a seam in the mat. On a logo, no: Cross-Over is a plain two-color loop mat, not a printed or logo construction. If you want branding at the door, that's a different product — a logo mat — and we can point you to one. For a clean, hard-wearing mat that looks the part at a front entrance, Cross-Over does that without the artwork.

Super Berber Matting is a dense berber entrance mat that does the two hardest jobs at a busy door at once: it scrapes grit off shoes and soaks up the moisture they carry. The needle-punch berber surface is solution-dyed in up to 40 colors, and a custom logo can be inlaid right into it — so it cleans the entrance and carries the brand in the same mat.
What Super Berber Does Before Dirt and Water Reach the Floor
At a busy entrance, dirt and water arrive on shoes — ISSA research shows the door is where most of a building's dirt comes in. Left to cross the threshold, that grit grinds at the floor and wet shoes leave a lobby slick. The dense berber pile catches both: it scrapes solids loose and holds moisture in the fiber, while the all-weather rubber backing keeps the mat planted, so the dirt and water stay on the mat, not the floor.
Why Solution-Dyed Berber, and Why This One
The mat is built from 100% solution-dyed polypropylene berber, needle-punched into a dense half-inch pile that weighs about 52 ounces per square yard. Solution-dyed means the color is locked into the fiber rather than printed on top, so it does not bleach or wear pale. The polypropylene is UV- and abrasion-resistant, which is what lets the mat hold its look under heavy traffic and sun.
Of the two jobs an entrance mat does, this one leans toward wiping — the deep pile is built to pull moisture and fine dirt off shoes and keep it there, with strong scraping behind it. An all-weather rubber backing grips the floor and stands up to wet conditions, so the mat works at an interior lobby or a covered outdoor entrance alike.
Where It Belongs, and What It Is Not
Super Berber fits heavy-traffic entrances where appearance counts as much as cleaning — office buildings, shops, lobbies, schools, airports, and sport concourses. It works indoors or at a covered outdoor entrance, and it sits in our range of moisture-control entrance matting as the absorbent option that traps water in the pile rather than channeling it away.
What it is not is a drainage grid or a heavy-mud scraper. It holds the moisture it collects, so where standing water has to drain off, an open grid mat is the better tool — and where shoes arrive caked in mud, a coarse scraper out front will spare the pile. Super Berber is the mat that finishes the job: wiping shoes clean and dry once the worst is knocked off.
Three Things to Check Before You Spec It
First, decide what the door mostly throws at it. If the entrance is about moisture and a clean, finished look, Super Berber is built for exactly that. If shoes arrive heavy with mud or grit, set a coarse scraper ahead of it so the berber handles the wiping rather than clogging with debris it was not meant to take alone.
Second, size it and pick the edge. It comes in standard mats up to four by fourteen feet, in rolls, or custom-cut to your dimensions — up to thirteen feet two inches wide and inlaid runs to a hundred feet. Borders can be heat-sealed, square-cut, or beveled, and custom shapes are on the table if the entrance calls for one.
Third, plan the logo and colors early. The logo is needle-punched into the pile from a palette of up to 40 colors, so it needs camera-ready artwork before a quote. One thing to know up front: this construction does not do exact PMS brand-color matching — you choose from the 40 — so check that your colors are covered before you commit.
Why Mats Inc.
We have specified entrance matting since 1964, and a logo mat only works if the artwork, the colors, and the size are right before it is made. We take your logo, match it to the available colors, confirm the size and border, and lay out the inlay — so the mat that arrives cleans the entrance and reads as your brand, not a near-miss. Send your artwork and we will start there.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Super Berber Matting made of?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
It is built from 100% solution-dyed polypropylene berber, needle-punched into a dense half-inch pile of about 52 ounces per square yard, over an all-weather rubber backing. Solution-dyed means the color runs through each fiber instead of sitting on the surface, so it resists fading and bleaching. The polypropylene is UV- and abrasion-resistant, which is what lets the mat keep its look under heavy traffic, indoors or at a covered outdoor entrance.
How much traffic can it take, and how well does it handle water?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
It is rated for heavy traffic, and wiping is its strong suit — the deep berber pile is built to pull moisture and fine dirt off shoes and hold it down in the fiber, away from the floor. The solution-dyed, UV- and abrasion-resistant construction keeps it from looking worn or faded as the traffic adds up. Like any pile mat, it performs best when it is vacuumed regularly and washed when it needs it, so the trapped soil does not pack down into the pile.
Is it a scraper or a wiper, and where should I place it?
Answered by Dustin Thompson, Owner & CEO
It does both, but it leans wiper — it is at its best absorbing moisture and fine grit rather than knocking off heavy mud. Place it where it covers the full walking path so shoes take several steps on it. If the entrance sees heavy mud or sand, put a coarse scraper mat outside the door first and let Super Berber do the wiping inside; that two-stage setup keeps the pile from clogging and keeps the floor beyond it clean and dry.
Can you inlay our logo, and how sharp will it look?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
Yes — the logo is needle-punched right into the berber pile, not printed on top, so it wears in with the mat instead of scuffing off. It is one of the largest custom logo mats made, which gives a logo room to read cleanly at the door, and custom shapes are possible if you want the mat itself to follow a form. We do need camera-ready artwork before quoting, so the inlay is laid out accurately from the start.
What colors can we get, and can you match our exact brand color?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
There are up to 40 colors to build the base and the logo from, which covers most brand palettes. The one honest limit to flag: this construction does not offer exact PMS brand-color matching — you choose from the 40 standard colors rather than a custom-mixed shade. Because the colors are solution-dyed into the fiber, whatever you pick holds up without fading. Send your brand colors and we will confirm the closest matches before anything is made.
Will it still look professional after a season of heavy use?
Answered by Jinna Hopson, Vice President of Marketing
That is what the solution-dyed berber is for. With the color locked into the fiber and the polypropylene resisting UV and abrasion, the mat holds its appearance far better than a surface-printed mat, which tends to go pale and tired at a busy door. The berber texture reads clean and upscale rather than utilitarian, so it suits a lobby or storefront where the entrance is part of the first impression.
