What A Floor Graphic Has To Get Right

Floors are the hardest surface a graphic can live on — underfoot, exposed to traffic, and sometimes wet. Three things decide whether it holds up.

Surface & Adhesive Match

Media is spec’d to the surface — smooth tile, sealed concrete, and terrazzo, or rough asphalt, brick, and low-pile carpet — with removable, high-tack, or aggressive permanent adhesives to suit.

Slip Resistance & Safety

Certified slip ratings (ANSI, DIN, EN, UL) mean a graphic can go underfoot in wet or dry areas without becoming a hazard — every medium below lists its rating.

Durability & Removal

Rated from a few weeks to several years, indoors or out, and built to lift cleanly when a promotion, wayfinding scheme, or event changes.

Floor Media At A Glance

Some floor media is a single ready-to-use film; other systems pair a printable film with a separate protective laminate for extra wear and slip resistance. Full specifications for RPG’s current floor media lineup are below.

FAQs – Common Questions

Are floor graphics slip-resistant?

Many are, and to certified standards — ANSI A137.1/A326.3, DIN 51130, EN 13036-4, and UL 410 all appear across the lineup. The tables above list each medium’s slip rating so you can match it to wet or dry, indoor or outdoor areas.

Do floor graphics need a protective laminate?

Not always. Some floor media is ready to use with a durable printed surface. Other systems pair a printable film with a separate protective laminate (like Mactac PF6300 or Drytac Dynamic Plus) that adds wear resistance and a slip rating over the print.

Can floor graphics go outdoors?

Some can. Products such as Jessup Asphalt Art, Mactac StreetTRAX, and Drytac Polar Street FX are rated for asphalt, concrete, and brick outdoors, while others are indoor-only. Check the outdoor durability row for each medium.

What surfaces can floor graphics stick to?

Smooth tile, sealed concrete, terrazzo, waxed vinyl, marble, and low-pile carpet, plus rough surfaces like brick and asphalt — as long as the film and adhesive are matched to the texture. The surfaces row lists what each product is rated for.

Will they damage the floor or leave residue?

Most floor media uses removable adhesives that lift cleanly. A few use aggressive permanent or high-tack adhesives for rough outdoor surfaces, so the right choice depends on how long the graphic needs to stay down and what it’s going on.

How long do floor graphics last?

Anywhere from about a week to five years, depending on the medium and the traffic it takes. Indoor and outdoor durability are listed per product in the tables above so you can match the lifespan to the job.
