Other mats in the marketplace are fabricated of rubber dust or crumb (recycled) rubber which is held together with clay, glue and other fillers. Much like comparing particle board to genuine lumber, these mats have the potential to breakdown or chemically erode and become absorbent with use.

When stripping or disinfecting stalls, the maintenance of Linear Rubber Mats is as easy as mopping with soap and water or other disinfectants (excessive use of lime, however, is not recommended since it becomes pasty and slick when wet.) It is not necessary to remove mats when stripping or disinfecting.

Because Linear mats are genuine rubber, they are backed with a factory-direct warranty.
