Abstract

A protective floor mat for use in supporting a chair on a floor comprises a mat base for contact with the floor, and a graphic layer having a decorative pattern. A first adhesive material is disposed between and interconnects the mat base and the graphic layer. The floor mat also comprises a transparent upper protective layer for contact by the chair. A second adhesive material is disposed between and interconnects the upper protective layer and the graphic layer. Because the graphic layer covers the mat base, the mat base may be made from regrind or reprocessed plastic material. The graphic layer is visible through the transparent protective layer.
