Patent number: 4710415Abstract: A reinforced, anti-fatigue foam floor tile module which comprises first and second resilient foam layers, and in between the foam layers, at a distance of about 55% to 65% of the thickness from the back surface of the mat, is a dimensionally-stabilizing, fibrous, particularly glass, scrim sheet material. The foam floor tile module has a foam density ranging from about 20 to 40 pounds per cubic foot, comprises a substantially closed cell foam and has an embossed face surface having a decorative or non-slip pattern thereon with the foam layer densified under the embossed areas.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 1986Date of Patent: December 1, 1987Assignee: Compo Industries, Inc.Inventors: David K. Slosberg, Gilbert S. Nowell

Patent number: 4689258Abstract: A resilient, abrasion-resistant foraminous surface covering material, such as a floor mat, which mat comprises a layer composed of a plurality of relatively stiff, resilient fibers, each fiber intersect with one another. The fiber is coated with a high density, polymeric foam material. When surface of the coated fibrous material having a plurality of irregular islands of polymers with lower surface form a generally planar gripping surface, and the other top surface, characterized by a discontinuous, irregular surface, the coated, fibrous material having a relatively large, open area therethrough to permit the drainage of liquids through the surface coating covering material.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 1986Date of Patent: August 25, 1987Assignee: Compo Industries, Inc.Inventors: David K. Slosberg, Gilbert S. Nowell
