Rubber Kitchen Flooring - Comments

Could you name some manufacturers of rubber kitchen flooring? Most of what I have found on the internet is very black with some speckles of color or the rubber dot flooring.

Posted by: Mrs. Davis at February 5, 2008 06:56 AMI have found lots of companies who sell rubber flooring products. NoraRubber.com has a variety of colors and textures. Tuflex.com also offers non-black rubber flooring. Gerberltd.com, Dinoflex.com, and ECOsurfaces.com are just a few of the rubber flooring companies I find. Their products may not be designed specifically for kitchen flooring, but I don't see a reason to avoid kitchen use.

Posted by: The Flooring Lady at February 5, 2008 10:27 AMI am thinking of a rubber floor for my residential kitchen. Do you have any pictures of residential kitchens with a rubber floor?
Thank you! Todd

ECOSurfaces.com says their rubber is specifically not for kitchen use (see the FAQ).
Gerbert Ltd (gerberTltd.com, don't forget the T) is a distributor of ECOSurfaces brand rubber. See above.

Posted by: Laura G at February 26, 2008 04:36 PMIf you are looking for rubber floors I recomend to visit www.mondousa.com They have nice floors with pictures.
The site looks like a spam site because of the Beijing Olympics focus, but it seems to be legitimate. The Contract tab is the one with the rubber flooring -- The Flooring Lady]

I have rubber flooring in my gym and need to clean it, the people we bought it from will come and clean it for me at almost the same price as I bought it for.. Can you help me and tell me how it is so easy to clean? and what I would need?

Posted by: Kim at April 27, 2008 01:13 PMHi Kim, Do you know who the manufacturer was for your flooring? Usually, following the manufacturer's advice is best as well as safe (not to mention it can keep you from voiding their warranty!).
How dirty is your floor? Are we talking really dirty or just need of a regular cleaning? Is it to the point where it needs to be stripped?
What did the flooring people say needs to be done? Did they say it needs to be stripped or are they just going to clean it. Some more info would be helpful.
If you'd like to try cleaning it yourself, there are Ph neutral cleaners that you can buy. There are strippers as you can apply yourself as well.
