PVC floor mats have a wide range of hardness. Soft PVC has a Shore hardness of approximately 50-90, while rigid PVC can reach over 80. For example, soft PVC flooring feels soft underfoot, while rigid PVC sheets are harder and less prone to deformation.
The hardness of PVC floor mats depends on the specific material and intended use. Soft PVC floor mats (Shore hardness 50-90) are suitable for areas requiring cushioning, such as children's play areas; rigid PVC (Shore hardness above 80) is more suitable for commercial spaces with high abrasion resistance requirements.
