FAQs

WaterHog HD Impression mats use high-definition digital printing technology instead of precision-cut inlay construction, enabling photographic-quality logo reproduction with 56 color options. Digital printing captures intricate details, gradients, shading, and complex multi-color designs impossible with standard inlay mats limited to solid color pieces. HD Impression mats maintain all patented WaterHog performance features—rubber-reinforced face nubs, water dam border holding 1.5 gallons per square yard, and NFSI-certified slip resistance—while offering superior design flexibility and visual impact. Choose HD Impression for complex logos requiring multiple colors, gradients, or photographic quality; choose standard Inlay for simpler geometric logos where precision-cut construction creates ultra-sharp edges and maximum longevity in extreme-traffic applications.

Absolutely! WaterHog HD Impression mats are rated for both indoor and outdoor use. The 100% solution-dyed polypropylene fiber resists fading from UV exposure and will not rot, mold, or mildew despite outdoor weather conditions. UV-resistant digital inks maintain logo vibrance despite direct sunlight. The rubber-reinforced construction withstands temperature extremes (-40°F to 160°F), rain, snow, ice, and seasonal weather changes. The water dam border captures melting snow and rain preventing moisture from tracking inside. Many facilities successfully use these mats in uncovered outdoor entrances, loading docks, and exterior walkways where weather-resistant performance is essential. For maximum outdoor longevity, consider covered entrance placement or be prepared for more frequent cleaning in extreme weather.

WaterHog HD Impression mats offer an industry-leading palette of 56 colors for digital printing—far exceeding standard WaterHog inlay mats typically limited to 8-12 solid colors. The 56 colors span the complete spectrum including neutrals (blacks, grays, whites, beiges), blues, greens, reds, burgundies, browns, purples, and yellows. This extensive palette enables precise brand color matching and unlimited design complexity. You can use any combination of these 56 colors in your logo design without restrictions or additional charges. Digital printing technology allows gradients, shading, and color blending between these base colors, creating virtually unlimited visual possibilities. Compare this to inlay mats where each color requires separate material cutting and assembly, naturally limiting practical color count.

We accept vector graphic files (AI, EPS, PDF with fonts converted to outlines) which are ideal for logos and provide the best results for digital printing. High-resolution raster images (PNG, JPEG, TIFF) are also acceptable if saved at minimum 300 DPI resolution—higher resolution preferred for larger mat sizes. For photographic images or complex graphics, provide the highest resolution available. Our design team will review your artwork and optimize it for high-definition printing on polypropylene fiber. We'll create a digital proof showing exactly how your logo will appear on your selected background color before production begins. The proof allows you to approve the design or request modifications to colors, sizing, or layout.

Yes! WaterHog HD Impression mats are designed for easy maintenance. Daily cleaning requires simple vacuuming to remove surface debris—the bi-level design traps dirt below the walking surface making vacuuming highly effective. For weekly deep cleaning, hose off the mat outdoors and hang to dry (2-4 hours), or use commercial extraction equipment indoors. The polypropylene fiber does not absorb water so the mat dries quickly. For intensive cleaning, power wash at moderate pressure and hang to dry. Unlike carpet mats that hold moisture and require extended drying, WaterHog mats dry relatively quickly. The rubber-reinforced construction maintains performance despite frequent cleaning. No special chemicals or equipment required beyond standard commercial vacuums and optional extraction machines. This easy maintenance is a major advantage in high-traffic commercial applications.

The raised rubber water dam border holds up to 1.5 gallons of water per square yard of mat surface area. For example, a 3'x4' mat (12 square feet = 1.33 square yards) can hold approximately 2 gallons of water within the border. A larger 6'x10' mat (60 square feet = 6.67 square yards) can hold approximately 10 gallons. This substantial capacity prevents moisture from escaping onto surrounding floors, protecting your flooring investment and reducing slip hazards in adjacent areas. The bi-level surface design works in conjunction with the border—moisture channels below the walking surface where it's trapped within the border rather than remaining on top. This keeps the walking surface drier and safer even when the mat is saturated with water from heavy rain or snow conditions.

Yes! The patented rubber-reinforced face nub construction is one of WaterHog's most significant performance innovations. Each polypropylene fiber tuft is reinforced at the base with 100% SBR rubber, creating a rigid support structure that prevents the crushing and matting that occurs with traditional carpet mats under heavy traffic. Without this reinforcement, carpet pile compresses over time in high-traffic areas, losing its scraping effectiveness and creating worn pathways. The rubber-reinforced construction maintains the mat's original height and scraping performance through years of demanding commercial use. This is particularly important in high-traffic areas like building entrances where concentrated foot traffic would quickly crush standard carpet. The reinforced nubs are a primary reason WaterHog mats last 5-7+ years in applications where traditional mats fail within 1-2 years.

Yes! WaterHog HD Impression mats are available with gripper backing specifically designed for carpeted surfaces. The gripper backing features cleats that grip carpet pile preventing mat sliding and movement. Specify "Gripper for Carpeted Floors" when ordering. For hard floors (tile, concrete, wood, vinyl, laminate), specify "Smooth for Hard Floors" which provides secure grip on non-carpeted surfaces. The 100% SBR rubber backing in both options is heavy-duty commercial-grade that prevents mat shifting under traffic. Choose the backing type matching your floor surface for optimal performance and safety. If you have both hard floors and carpeted areas, order the backing appropriate for your primary installation location.

WaterHog HD Impression mats deliver superior moisture management and durability compared to Berber or traditional carpet logo mats. The water dam border alone—holding 1.5 gallons per square yard—far exceeds any carpet mat's moisture capacity. The rubber-reinforced face nubs prevent crushing that deteriorates carpet mats in high-traffic areas. WaterHog's polypropylene fiber won't rot, mold, or mildew like carpet can in wet conditions. The bi-level design provides more aggressive scraping action than flat carpet surfaces. However, carpet logo mats may offer more refined logo appearance for simple designs and provide softer feel underfoot. Choose WaterHog HD Impression when moisture management, outdoor use, or extreme durability are priorities. Choose Berber or carpet mats for dry indoor environments prioritizing upscale aesthetic over maximum performance in wet conditions.

Yes! WaterHog HD Impression mats excel in winter conditions. The 1.5 gallon per square yard water dam capacity contains melting snow and ice within the mat perimeter. The polypropylene fiber does not freeze when wet, remaining flexible even in sub-zero temperatures (rated to -40°F). The rubber-reinforced face nubs scrape snow, ice, and de-icing salt from footwear effectively. The mat functions reliably despite ice accumulation, though extremely thick ice buildup may require removal. For winter use, increase cleaning frequency to rinse away corrosive de-icing salts that can accumulate. Daily or twice-daily hosing during active snow periods prevents salt buildup. The water dam border may fill completely during heavy snowmelt—this is normal function, just ensure proper drainage when cleaning. WaterHog mats are the industry standard for winter entrance performance.

Yes! WaterHog HD Impression mats are NFSI (National Floor Safety Institute) certified for high traction, meeting stringent slip-resistance performance standards. The certification applies even when the mat is wet. The bi-level surface design maintains a drier walking surface by channeling moisture below the elevated surface where people step. The rubber-reinforced face nubs create textured traction. The polypropylene fiber provides grip even when saturated. The water dam border contains moisture within the mat preventing wet areas on surrounding floors. Third-party NFSI certification demonstrates verified slip resistance reducing liability in entrance applications. This certified performance is a primary reason facility managers specify WaterHog mats for safety-critical entrance applications in healthcare, hospitality, retail, and institutional environments.
