MattingExperts.com Now Offering ?Red Carpet Event? Runner Mats

Palos Park, IL (PRWEB) August 08, 2011

Nowadays, it is very common for businesses, organizations, etc. to use red runner mats during special events. MattingExperts.com now is a one-stop shop for the red matting customers seek to use at such events! Save money; don?t rent the mat and return it?over and over. Buy your special event red carpet and you have made an investment for future events or to use anywhere/any way in your facility.

One such mat, ?Plush Tuff Olefin?, is popular because of its affordability, durability and eye-catching red color. Rather than chose from a set list of sizes from a rental company, customers can chose 2, 3, 4, and 6 foot widths in any length up to 60 feet. After the party is over, this same mat can be used to wipe snow and rain off shoes for years to come.

Another red carpet option, Tri Grip, has a true, bright red color available. In addition, this mat comes with either a smooth back for placement on hard floors or with little cleats on the back for use on top of carpeted entrance floors.

Darius Audickas, representative for Matting Experts says, ?A textured mat might cause unsafe footing for anyone wearing high heels so stay away from these. Patterned or textured mats also do not photograph well with the elaborate gowns and tuxedos being worn at a red carpet event. Better to choose a simple, non-textured mat.?

Owner, Rocky Stevens shares, ?It is a common mis-conception that any piece of red carpet will work for these events. Scrap pieces of non-commercial carpet do not work as well as our vinyl and rubber backed mats. Wall to wall type carpeting tends to wrinkle, corners fold up and it is difficult to join multiple sections attractively. Being used without padding and moved around frequently, commercial carpeting would deteriorate.?

Whether you need a small piece of red mat for a photo opportunity area or a super long and thin piece to use as a walkway in the lobby, Matting Experts has just what you need.

Call or email MattingExperts.com today for a no-hassle quote and/or free sample swatches. They will roll the red carpet runner out for you!

About Matting Experts:

Matting Experts was founded by Rocky Stevens, CEO, in 2005. Located in Palos Park, Illinois, a southwest suburb of Chicago, Matting Experts carries mats from over 12 manufacturers. The website features over 200 mats and matting accessories.
