Rubber goods

Custom Logos

Possible on any rubber flooring product of any thickness

Can be painted on the rubber flooring

Can be inlaid into the rubber flooring

Painted Logos

This method is infrequent

Installer must be well experienced in painting rubber surfaces and logo design/applications (use of stencil)

Rubber surface must be prepared to receive painted logo; see Manufacturer for details

Generally requires a form of chemical and/or mechanical preparation, as well as the application of a primer

Inlaid Logos

This method is commonly used

Installer must be well experienced in the installation of rubber flooring and inlaid logos

Possible by freehand cutting, but rubber flooring is typically waterjet cut into the desired logo

Be mindful of tolerances when using multiple colors, textures, etc.
