As products and product lines evolve so to do product names: going forward, the Waterhog Floor Mats brand and dedicated website will now all be nestled under the Waterlock Floor Mats division. The tried and true Waterhog products will retain their respective Waterhog names, as these time-tested floor mats have built quite a following and a reputation over the years. Only the name of the overarching brand and website will have a slightly different ring to it. All Waterhog mats will continue to be made in the same facilities, with the same American-sourced materials and carry the same durability and warranty as before. Any mats purchased previously will look and feel and function identically to mats purchased today.

Waterhog Mats have become a staple in the flooring industry as durable, commercial-grade floor mats that help prevent dirt, water and debris from being tracked inside. The non-logo versions of these mats are available with customized lengths and the logo mats were limited to only one style until recently. Now, several different styles of custom Waterhog logo mats are available to fit any application and environment.
One of the biggest drawbacks with most floor matting, and Waterhog Mats in particular, is the limitation on available sizes. Most mats are available no larger than 6 feet wide (as most double doors are this width). Thus, even though Waterhog floor mats are non-directional (and therefore we can consider either side the width and either side the length), mats larger than 6’ on both the width and length were, until recently not feasible. The goods would be cut down from a 6’ wide roll, backed, beveled and finished and there was nothing that could be done. Now we have two different options for oversized Waterhog matting where both the width and length are greater than 6 feet, the Waterhog Berber Roll Mats and a variety of different Waterhog Floor Mat Tiles.
Several of our most popular Waterhog mats are available in two different styles - the Waterhog Classic Mats come with the traditional, black beveled border while the Waterhog Fashion Mats (also called the Waterhog Classic Fashion Mats) are manufactured with matching fabric border. We often get the question: which version of the waterhog mat will be best for me, and the answer is that it depends on several factors, all of which will be explored below...
