Ribtrax Pro

Ribtrax Pro is the professional-grade Swisstrax tile, made from heavy-duty polypropylene with a ribbed, ventilated surface. Water, dirt and debris fall through the tile while airflow underneath helps moisture evaporate, which makes it the first choice for vehicles, heavy loads and wet or dirty spaces.

It resists oils, fuels and common workshop chemicals, and is widely used in workshops, motorsport paddocks and car detailing bays.

Ribtrax Home

Ribtrax Home is the cost-effective Swisstrax tile designed for residential garages. It keeps the ribbed, open-flow design, so water drains through and damp patches do not sit on the concrete, and it is built to handle cars, SUVs, motorcycles and gym equipment.

It is ideal for home garages, home gyms and garden rooms. If your garage sees heavier trade use, compare Ribtrax Home vs Ribtrax Pro.

Smoothtrax

Smoothtrax is the low-profile Swisstrax tile with a closed top surface for a smooth, finished look. Channels beneath the surface still allow airflow and drainage, and the flat finish makes it easy to roll trolleys, stools and tool chests.

It suits garages used as workspaces, detailing bays, home gyms and showrooms. Read Ribtrax vs Smoothtrax to see how it compares.
