Plastic Chair Mats

Office workers and gamers alike spend long hours in chairs, and the constant movement of casters can quickly damage carpet, tile, or hardwood.

Picking Out Chair Mats

PVC Options

Polyvinyl Chloride is the most popular plastic material for this purpose primarily due to its convenience and effectiveness. It is also what many clients select when picking out tabletop protectors or covers. You don't have to worry about your PVC chair mat slipping out of place, as they come with studded backs or non-slip felt backing to hold them securely in place (for low-pile carpets). Smooth floors such as hardwood or tile will not encounter any slippage issues with these mats.

Polycarbonate Options

Polycarbonate plastic is a heavy-duty thermoplastic whose defining feature is its extraordinary durability and molding ease. These qualities make it the preferred material for those with carpeted floors. The rigidity of a polycarbonate office chair mat can protect all carpet types without sacrificing your chair's ease of mobility.

You will have the option of choosing what thickness of mat best suits your purposes, as different carpet piling sizes will be best protected by varying covering thicknesses. Our quick cost calculator can provide you with a quick way to estimate what different carpet dimensions might amount to.

Shape & Size of Your Custom Office Chair Mat

Depending on the type of desk you're using, as well as the shape and size of your work area, different mat dimensions should be considered. For example, a corner workspace might require a teardrop shape; a rectangular mat with a lip might suit a double-drawered desk setup, and a simple rectangular office or gaming chair mat might fit best with a simple work desk design.

A good way to figure out what dimensions will suit you in advance is by sitting in your chair and rolling around as you would expect to throughout your day. Reach out to the shelf, wastebasket, drawers, or whatever else you occasionally access to get an idea of your operative area. This will approximate the ideal mat size for you, and we're just the experts to get it made for you.
