What do you need to know about car floor mats? Or do you have an SUV, van or pickup that needs new floor mats? Maybe your golf cart or food truck? Whatever vehicle you need to acquire new mats for, and whatever the reason (old mats are beat up and gungy, car interior needs improvement, logo mats are just really cool, or whatever ...) I'm happy you asked the questions. You need to know what car mats are made of, how they are constructed, who manufactures car mats and what kind of different mats each manufacturer offers. And you need to know this stuff before you decide which set of mats to buy. So here's the info you need broken into two parts. The first section deals with how car mats are constructed while the second part is a listing of car floor mats by manufacturer with a link to detail pages for each car mat manufacturer.
In addition, a single page of Miscellaneous Car Mat Manufacturers is provided for those manufacturers/distributors(mfg/dist) who provide insufficient information to justify an entire webpage. In some cases the mfg/dist doesn't sell retail to the public, only sells through authorized distributors or sells directly to the OEM. If you know of a mfg/dist of car floor mats that should be included on this site please contact us with the appropriate information.
There are 6 basic categories of car floor mats. Each has its own strength and weakness. Choose a mat which matches the weather you experience, your family requirements, and your personal sense of style and decor. These categories include rubber car floor mats, carpeted car mats, custom car mats, clear car mats, luxury car mats and universal absorbent car mats.
Rubber Car Floor Mats are typically molded from a high quality rubber or rubberized material and have raised edges to contain water and dirt. A PVC car mat is another example of a rubber-like car mat product. They may be available in Black, Grey, Tan or Clear depending on manufacturer. Most are UV and stain resistant. Cleanup is quick with a damp cloth or hose but usually requires removal from the vehicle. This type of mat is great for kids and wet/muddy/dirty conditions but doesn’t effectively trap dust, so it’s not the best mat for use in very dry environments. Beware of water getting under the mat as the carpet may smell/rot. You can find these mats in both universal, semi-custom and custom fit varieties.
Carpeted Car Mats are widely used in the automotive industry by car mat manufacturers to meet the consumers desire for a luxury mat. A floor mat made of carpet can exactly match the existing carpet in your car or create a contrast, i.e., pink car mats on a purple carpet. Carpeted car floor mats are typically constructed of a yarn (polypropylene, nylon or other
synthetic yarn) woven into a carpet. Quality depends on how thick/plush the carpet is, how high the pile is, the weave and the yarn material. The carpet may then be bonded to multiple layers of vinyl, rubberized materials, polypropylene mesh, acrylic or other materials to enhance its look and feel.
Custom Car Mats are unique and diverse in their manufacture. They may be made of carpet, rubber or a clear material and are designed to be exact or better replacements for your vehicle's existing mats. They are designed to surpass your car manufacturers specifications and to exceed your expectations. So, I consider them a unique form of car floor mat. This type of mat is available in an incredibly wide range of materials, colors and designs. So they are found in the product lines of many companies who manufacturer and/or distribute aftermarket, high quality designer quality car floor mats. Usually they are stain resistant with the rubber mats being simpler and easier to clean than the carpeted mats. They all require removal from the vehicle to do a good clean job. The nice thing about this type of mat is that it gives you two big choices. Carpeting which absorbs some of the water/mud/dust and doesn’t deposit it on your shoes like a rubber mat does. Or Rubber which doesn't stain as easy, is more resistant to chemicals (gas, oil, gunk) and is easier to clean. As with rubber, beware of water getting under the mat as the carpet may smell/rot.
OK, more mat info coming up, but first - sometimes the hard part of making a decision about a new set of floor mats is in not knowing whether the new mats will fit or look nice or live up to your expectations. So amongst all the car and vehicle accessory websites I’ve visited the most complete line of car mats and reviews may be found on AutoAnyThingDotCom, AmazonDotCom and EbayDotCom. Most of the car and truck floor mats referenced on this page may be found at one of these sites. So just navigate to your fav car products website, find the product you are interested in and read the reviews. It usually helps me in my decision making process to see what others like or dislike about the product I’m interested in - I hope it helps you too.
Remember, this site also has a Buyers Guide for Logo Floor Mats. A lot of the vendors who sell logo car and truck mats also sell the standard type of rubber and carpeted mats. And help me out! If you find sites with great reviews please share the info with me and other readers of this site by filling out a contact sheet with the appropriate info.
Ok, time to continue with Clear Mats ...
Clear Car Mats are usually cut and precisely shaped from sheets of vinyl to the original mat specifications of your vehicle. They are used primarily to protect your cars carpeting and floor mats from wear and tear while still allowing the original carpet/mats to be visible. The clarity, thickness and feel of the vinyl are important considerations when choosing this type of mat. Cleanup is similar to rubber car mats. The vinyl mat doesn’t absorb water/mud and usually doesn’t have raised edges, so beware of water and mud getting under the mat as the carpet may smell/rot.
Luxury Car Mats
This category includes a diverse array of car mats. Luxury Car Mats are typically highly customized versions of expensive carpeted, sheepskin or leather car mats, but may also include such mat materials as coco, sisal, wool and sea grass. Custom logos and embroidery are commonplace in this category.
Universal Absorbent Car Floor Mats are constructed of a layer of highly absorbent polyethylene covered by cotton or other cloth. This type of mat is lightweight and is used to protect the carpeting and mats already in your car by absorbing excess water, gas, oil and dirt that you bring into the car on your shoes. Cleanup is simple – wash in the washer and dry in the dryer. This type of mat limits the amount of moisture and dirt that penetrates into your vehicles carpeting, helping to prevent a soggy carpet and bad smells. It reinforces your efforts to keep your car clean.
Below is a list, with a short description of the types of car floor mats or model names of the manufacturers products. In some cases there is insufficient information to justify the allocation of an entire webpage for a manufacturer. Our Miscellaneous Car Mat Manufacturers page attempts to list some of these manufacturers of which we have limited information.
Many manufacturers of car floor mats also manufacture seat covers, car covers and other automotive accessories. I've listed the car mat manufacturers I am aware of below. If you know of other companies in the business, help us all out and use the Contact Us button on this page to let me know.
