STANDARDS & TESTING

  • Certified high-traction by the National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI)
  • Passes CPSC FF 1-70 for the surface flammability of carpets

WaterHog Inlay mats are produced using an inlay process, where colored material is cut and pieced together by hand before pressing into rubber.  As a result, there are very strict design requirements for this product.  PMS color matching is not available.  White material should not be used as the background color or for large sections of the mat as it is difficult to keep the color clean.

Minimum Text Height: 3" (includes lower case text)
Minimum Line Thickness: 3/8"
Any space between letters or design elements must be at minimum 3/8"
The text requirements are for general use; however, special fonts and very thin letter forms may need to be made larger or thicker and will be approached on a case-by-case basis.

Gradients, tints, screens and transparencies are not supported and should not be used.
