Abstract
An interlocking mat system including a plurality of individual mats configured to interlock together. Each of the plurality of individual mats has a top surface and a bottom surface. The top surface of each of the mats has ornamentation which simulates a desired texture, such as cobblestone, brick, or wood. The top surface also has a plurality of projections. The bottom surface of each of the mats has a plurality of channels which frictionally receive at least one of the projections from an adjacent mat. In one embodiment, the top surface of each of the mats also has at least one downwardly sloping graded edge, in order to prevent tripping over the mats. The interlocking mat system can be used to provide a customized driveway, walkway, or other similar area to provide a durable and resilient surface.
