An interlocking modular mat having four sides has female connectors on two sides and male connectors on the other two sides so that the modular mat can interlock with an adjacent mat and its connectors. The modular mat is configured with a plurality of structures surrounding a periphery of a top portion of the mat. The plurality of structures in combination with an underside of the top portion of the mat form a cavity. A sponge insert is configured to fit in the cavity and have a height such that a portion of the sponge insert extends from a bottom side the mat body. With the sponge insert extending beyond the bottom side of the mat body, the sponge insert bottom face generally become the supporting bottom of the modular mat to provide a more cushioned feel for a mat user.

A panel may include at a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate. The top layer may include a motif and a transparent or translucent synthetic material layer provided above the motif. The motif may be a print formed by digitally applying inks on the substrate with the intermediary of one or more primer layers extending underneath the print. The transparent or translucent synthetic material layer may include polypropylene and have a thickness of less than 1 millimeter.

A mat for hidden-type splicing includes a mat body and a splicing bottom base connected thereto. Sides of the splicing bottom base are formed with two adjacent convex parts and two adjacent concave parts. The convex part has a convex part connection surface disposed corresponding to and being flush with a side edge of the mat body. Outwardly convex splicing teeth are disposed on the convex part connection surface and protrude outside the side edge, and adjacent two of which have a splicing outer groove formed therebetween. The concave part has a concave part connection surface disposed corresponding to and being flush with another side edge of the mat body. Inwardly concave splicing grooves are disposed in the concave part connection surface, and adjacent two of which have a splicing inner tooth formed therebetween. The mat body completely covers the two concave parts located therebelow.

A floor panel has a rectangular and oblong shape, and includes a substrate and a top layer provided on the substrate and forming a decorative side of the floor panel. The top layer is composed of a print provided on a carrier sheet and a transparent thermoplastic layer situated above the print. The substrate has a thickness from 2 to 10 millimeter and forms at least half of the thickness of the floor panel. The substrate is a polyurethane-based substrate and the transparent thermoplastic layer is polyurethane-based. The floor panel has a length of more than 1.1 meters and has a plurality of reinforcing layers situated outside the center line of the substrate. A reinforcing layer may be provided in combination with the substrate and the top layer.
