The Rubber-Cal Rubber “Washer and Dryer Mat” is perfect for protecting your floors against damage caused by the operations of household appliances such as dryers and washing machines. These machines often rumble when in use, potentially damaging your floors over time, making a lot of noise, and—sometimes—moving out of place. Our “Washer and Dryer Mat” is a durable washing-machine vibration mat designed to combat all of these issues—it absorbs the shocks emitted by your appliances; it dampens noise; and it increases traction. This laundry-room rubber mat is made of a combination of natural and reclaimed rubbers. Our washer/dryer rubber mat is 5mm-thick (just under 1/4"-thick). This washing-machine mat has a durometer of Shore 60A, which makes it a hard yet pliable product. Rubber is the ideal material for creating a protective, washer and dryer mat, as it provides excellent shock-absorbing and slip-resistant properties that work to protect the surface beneath it. Rubber’s shock-absorbance prevents subflooring damage and dampens unnecessary noise. In addition, this washer/dryer floor mat is highly water-resistant, which means that they still enhance traction despite the presence of moisture. Overall, the Rubber-Cal Rubber “Washer and Dryer Mat” helps reduce noise, protect subfloors, and enhance traction.
