Installation of multi-component floor mat

A multi-component floor mat (100, 200, 300, 400, 500) comprising:

• (a) A textile component (110, 210, 310, 410, 510) comprising (i) a first layer of tufted pile carpet formed by tufting face yarns (115, 115′) through a primary backing layer (120, 117′), wherein the first layer of tufted pile carpet contains printing ink, and (ii) a second layer of vulcanized rubber material (130) that contains magnetic particles;
• (b) A base component (150, 250, 350, 450, 550) comprising an elastomer that contains magnetic particles;
• wherein the textile component (110, 210, 310, 410, 510) and the base component (150, 250, 350, 450, 550) are releasably attachable to one another via magnetic attraction;
• and
• (c) A magnetically receptive sheeting material (275, 375, 575), wherein the magnetically receptive sheeting material is positioned between the textile and base components and is smaller in size than the textile and base components thereby covering only a portion of the surface of said components.
