Commercial Rubber Flooring

Rubber flooring, such as Regupol’s Everroll®, can be used outdoors but it’s important to choose a product designed for exterior applications to ensure durability and performance in various weather conditions.

For outdoor use, ensure proper installation and drainage to prevent water accumulation.
