How can you design a mat with a logo or safety message?
You can use our custom mat builder, AcroSketch, to design the custom mat(s) you need, including adding a logo or safety message within the tool. From there, you can either add to cart and checkout online, or print/save your quote and send to our team at sales@acromat.com to move forward. You can also call (877-250-2507) or email our team with your need, and we will put together a quote the same day.
AcroSketch gives you the ability to design the custom mats you need in minutes, including adding logos and/or safety messages.
What file types do you need to provide for printing?
To ensure accuracy and precision, our team needs print-ready EPS or PDF artwork files. When designing your custom mat(s) in AcroSketch, you can add a PNG or JPEG to visually place your design and see a proof of the finished product.
However, you will be prompted within the tool to email the original PDF or EPS file to sales@acromat.com so we can properly design and build your mat.
How big can you make your logos and safety messages?
We can print logos and safety messages up to 3 ft. by 3 ft. in size, for a total of 9 sq. ft. Logos and safety messages can be made to any size, down to the inch, within these parameters. They can be placed anywhere on any AcroMat 100-Series anti-fatigue mats.
Can you add multiple logos or messages?
Yes, we can print as many items on each mat as you need or would like – for example, adding several safety messages to a larger custom mat, or putting a safety message in one area of the mat followed by a logo icon in the lower-right corner.
How long will logos or safety messages last?
Unlike traditional printers where logos quickly fade, we've invested in cutting-edge technology that prints logos and safety messages into our mats (not on top). The system prints in four UV-LED layers – primer, white, full color, and clear-coat finish. This ensures aesthetic and durability. The video at the top of this FAQ shows a brief timelapse of the four-layer printing process.
The short answer is, logos and safety messages should last as long as the anti-fatigue mat. An apt comparison is a tattoo, which is printed into the skin and remains visible for your entire life.
What is the lead time for printing?
Every AcroMat order is guaranteed to be made and shipped within 10 business days.
Are logos and safety messages chemical resistant?
Yes, our JFX200-2513 EX UV-LED flatbed printing system uses high-scratch and chemical-resistant inks to ensure long-term durability and aesthetic in all environments.

Can you clean mats that have been printed on?
Yes, as touched on above, the ink is chemical resistant and will not chip or fade when cleaning. However, we do recommend using gentler cleaners around printed logos and safety messages to protect the long-term vibrancy.
Will logos and safety messages print exactly as provided?
Yes, there is no limit to the colors our printing system is able to accommodate.
There is no limit to the colors our flatbed printer is able to accommodate, no matter how seemingly rare the colors might be.
Is the printing ink hazardous?
No, the ink we use to print logos and safety messages is eco-friendly with low VOC (volatile organic compounds). The printing system uses GREENGUARD Gold certified UV-LED inks.
GREENGUARD certification is granted to products that meet some of the world’s most rigorous chemical emissions standards, helping to reduce indoor air pollution and the risk of chemical exposure. The GREENGUARD Gold standard includes health-based criteria for more than 360 VOCs and also requires lower total VOC emission levels to ensure that the products are acceptable for use in sensitive indoor environments like schools and healthcare facilities.
Is the printing ink safe for cleanroom?
To our knowledge, it’s not possible to seek cleanroom certification for printing inks. However, as touched on above, our JFX200-2513 EX UV-LED flatbed printing system uses GREENGUARD Gold certified UV-LED inks. Finished logos and safety messages are also high scratch and chemical resistant, meaning they will not shed from being stood on or rolled over.
Before making an investment in an anti-fatigue mat with a logo or safety message, review your cleanroom requirements to make sure they’re safe for use. Samples are also encouraged.
How do we ensure quality?
We are fortunate to work with the most esteemed brands in the world, and the main reason for this is our continued commitment to the AcroMat Promise. Whether custom matting or logo and safety message printing, we will never print a logo or safety message that isn't up to the level you deserve and have come to expect from AcroMat.
