How to Order Custom Logo Mats for Your BJJ Gym: A Step-by-Step Guide

Walk into any BJJ gym — what do you see first? Usually the floor. A full training area covered in custom logo mats says "this is a professional space" louder than any sign ever could. But most gym owners don't know the process before placing an order — what files to prepare, how to review a mockup, how long production takes. This guide walks you through every step.

Walk into any BJJ gym — what do you see first? Usually the floor. A full training area covered in custom logo mats says "this is a professional space" louder than any sign ever could. QT MAT has been manufacturing training mats for 9 years and knows exactly what gym owners need. This guide walks you through every step.

Brand recognition

Your students film training videos for Instagram — and your logo is in every frame. Twenty students per class, dozens of videos per week — how many times has your logo been seen?

These gyms use QT MAT custom logo mats. They didn't just buy mats. They bought "walk in and you know whose house this is."

Student loyalty

A new student walks in for a trial class. They see a full floor printed with a unified logo and color scheme. Their first thought is "this place is legit." A professional look tells students they're training somewhere serious, not making do in a garage.

Business perspective

A gym is a business. Custom logo mats from QT MAT are a long-term asset — unlike ads that disappear the moment you stop paying. One purchase lasts five years, branding your gym every single day. Amortize the cost per square meter across five years, and it may cost less than a week of Instagram ads.

Stand out from competitors

Five BJJ gyms in one city. Which one do students choose? The one with a full-floor logo — versus a gym with plain mats. Custom logo mats are a customer acquisition tool, not just equipment.

2. Step 1: Choose Your Mat Type, Color, and Texture

Which mat type? XPE roll out mats are the most common choice for custom logo mats — large coverage, fewer seams, best printing results. Judo tatami mats can also be customized. QT MAT makes both. Not sure which fits? Tell us your training style.

Four surface textures:

Texture Features Best for
Elephant (smooth) One of QT MAT's best-sellers. Smooth surface, excellent logo printing BJJ, multi-discipline, modern gyms
Tatami Tied with Elephant as QT MAT's best-seller. Traditional look, strong barefoot grip Judo, traditional martial arts
Lichi Textured surface, good slip resistance BJJ, MMA daily training
Hybrid Tatami Mixed texture, balances grip and aesthetics Gyms wanting both function and look

Color combinations that work well:

  • Black base + white logo — cleanest, highest contrast
  • Royal blue base + white logo — classic sports look
  • Dark grey base + red logo — aggressive, sharp
  • Red base + black logo — bold, competitive gyms
  • White base + black logo — minimalist, modern

Size: QT MAT roll out mats are 1.5m wide standard, length customized to your space. No gaps, no waste. Got columns or alcoves? Send a sketch — we'll calculate the most efficient layout.

3. Step 2: Prepare Your Logo File

Accepted formats: AI or PDF. Vector files stay sharp when scaled to full floor size.

Low-resolution logo? Simple designs: QT MAT can redraw it. Complex designs: you may need a higher-quality version. Send us your file first — we'll tell you if it's print-ready.

Complex logos? QT MAT's printing process handles gradients, multi-layer shadows, fine lines — all no problem. We print two layers to ensure the base color never shows through, so even light logos on dark mats come out crisp and solid. The mockup stage shows every detail. If you have high standards for color and shading, we'll walk through those details with you up front.

Color matching: Send Pantone or CMYK codes, or just tell us "dark navy blue" — QT MAT will match as closely as possible.

Logo placement: Centered, evenly spaced, diagonal, one in each corner — you decide. QT MAT shows every option in the mockup.

4. Step 3: Review Your Mockup

Once we have your file, QT MAT moves fast — first mockup within half an hour.

Revise as much as you want. Color darker? Logo bigger? Move it left? Add an outline? You ask, QT MAT adjusts. No limit on revisions.

5. Step 4: Production, Quality Check, and Shipping

Production time: 10-15 days from mockup approval.

Real-product photo confirmation: After production, QT MAT photographs the actual finished mats. You see the real product, not a simulation. You approve it, we ship it.

Shipping (DDP door-to-door):

Destination Sea freight
United States ~55-60 days
Australia ~45-50 days
Europe ~65-75 days

DDP means QT MAT handles customs and duties. You just receive the delivery. Full tracking throughout transit.

Planning tip: Contact QT MAT at least three months before you need the mats. Got an opening date? Work backwards from that.

6. Multi-Roll Logos & Matching Wall Pads

How logos work across multiple rolls

QT MAT supports two approaches:

  • One logo per roll: Clean, repeating brand pattern
  • One oversized logo across multiple rolls: Maximum visual impact for photos

After joining, QT MAT's seams are nearly invisible. We build seam compensation into the layout — when rolls come together, the artwork reads as one continuous piece.

Wall pads can match too

QT MAT offers wall padding in matching colors and logos. A unified floor-to-wall design makes your space look like a complete brand.


7. After Delivery: Installation and Maintenance

Installation: Unroll and train. QT MAT's Velcro edges connect in seconds. No glue, no professional installers.

Daily maintenance:

  • Simple wipe-down after each session
  • For deeper cleaning, use pH-neutral cleaner — never corrosive chemicals, especially on the logo area
  • Normal cleaning won't fade QT MAT's printed logos

Durability: QT MAT industrial-grade printing — color penetrates into the material, not a surface sticker. With normal use and proper cleaning, the logo lasts as long as the mat.


8. Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Minimum order quantity?
No minimum. QT MAT starts from a single roll.

Q: Will the logo fade?
QT MAT industrial printing — normal use and cleaning won't cause fading.

Q: Competition markings?
Yes. QT MAT prints boundary lines, center circles, referee markings.

Q: Is the mockup free?
Yes. QT MAT creates and revises it for free.

Q: Can I get a sample first?
Yes. QT MAT ships free samples to your gym.

Q: Production timeline?
QT MAT standard: 10-15 days.

Q: Just one roll to test print quality?
You can — but shipping a single roll is expensive per unit. Once you're happy with the mockup, QT MAT recommends ordering the full set.

Q: Light logo on dark mat — will it show through?
No. QT MAT prints two layers for full coverage — white logo on black mat prints pure white.
