Material: TPE vs Thermoplastic vs Rubber
Every mat on this list is a flexible polymer, but the formulation matters. 3W uses 100% TPE for its metal-pedal line — softer, grippier, and better at conforming to carpet contours. Husky’s ProGard and the LASFIT/KARPAL thermoplastic compounds are stiffer, which holds shape better but sits on top of the carpet rather than settling into it. If you deal with extreme cold, the Husky 13,888-review track record specifically cites flexibility below freezing. Custom-fit rubber is rare in 2026 — polymer has largely replaced it.
