Genuine Joe 59476 WaterGuard Cleaning Mat 72" x 48

WaterGuard Cleaning Mat 72" x 48

The Genuine Joe 59476 WaterGuard mat measures 72 inches by 48 inches and is built for indoor and outdoor entryways. Its bi-level construction traps dirt and moisture beneath shoe level while a raised border contains debris. A 24 oz. polypropylene carpet surface dries quickly and resists rot, backed by 100 percent rubber for durability. Charcoal gray finish suits commercial and residential settings.

Simple roll-out placement with rubber backing grip

Installation requires only unrolling the mat onto a clean, flat surface; the 100 percent rubber backing grips carpeted and hard floors without adhesives. The rubber borders strengthen edges and reduce tripping hazards. Issues arise if the floor is uneven or wet during placement, which can prevent the backing from laying flat and create gaps where moisture escapes.

Polypropylene carpet and rubber backing limits

The polypropylene carpet handles foot traffic and weather exposure but is not rated for heavy rolling loads or chemical spills. Rubber backing provides durability and border reinforcement yet may degrade under prolonged direct sunlight or extreme temperature cycles. The mat contains water and dirt within its raised border, though capacity is finite during heavy downpours or high-volume entryways.

Not for buyers needing custom sizes

This mat serves standard doorway dimensions at 72 by 48 inches and cannot be trimmed without compromising the raised border seal. It is unsuitable for industrial zones requiring forklift-rated surfaces or oil-resistant compounds. Facilities needing antimicrobial treatments, colour-coded zones, or modular interlocking systems should consider alternative floor protection solutions.
