Standard Font Styles
Resilite offers 6 standard font/typestyle choices shown below. Typically letters are applied in all capital letters (uppercase). However, if you choose the Script font, the first letter will be a capital letter & the rest will be in lowercase letters. Arial Bold, Times New Roman Bold, & Aardvark Bold can be applied in either all capital letters or capital/lowercase letters.

If you don't choose a font/typestyle when ordering, Resilite will select the Block font as the default lettering style & apply the letters in all capital letters.

View the entire alphabet in each of standard font styles to get an idea which font is right for you by selecting below or the button to the right. This will offer tips and suggestions.

Nonstandard Font Styles
If the 6 standard fonts/typestyles shown above aren't what you had in mind, Resilite can use the font of your choosing. In order to provide lettering in a font that is not standard, Resilite needs the name of the font and a sample printout of the lettering. If Resilite does not have the font, you may need to submit the electronic font file. Click here for specific directions and requirements on nonstandard font styles.

Interlocking Letters
Another great options. Get two letters interlock with each other. Either Resilite can create Interlocking Letters in one of our typestyles or send in your customized letter design. You may choose single tone, duo-tone or tri-tone color options.

1. Resilite Standard Interlocking Letters: Choose from one of the 4 Resilite Standard Font/Typestyle (Block, Full Block, Times New Roman Bold, or Arial Bold) as shown above.

Lettering can be applied in any size on a wrestling mat.

Standard Lettering Sizes
Standard lettering is based upon how many letters are in a group and if the letters can fit on the mat. Single letters are usually 5' high. Two letters are approximately 4' high. Three or more letters are generally 3' high. Letters may have to be scaled smaller in order to fit properly on a mat based on the size of the mat and the location of the letters.

Oversize Lettering Sizes
Call Resilite for pricing.

Smaller Lettering Sizes
If applying award winning team members or the years the team received award, Resilite offers smaller sized lettering to help with budgets. The lettering will not be as dominating as other standard sized letters. Lettering prices range with letters sized from 5" to 15". We suggest using a font/typestyle that has capital and lowercase letters to be read more easily.

Wall Padding Standard Lettering Sizes
On kwik-stik wall padding, letters are generally 3' high. For lettering on Wainscot Wall Panels, letters are approximately 2' high in order to fit properly on each panel.

We have a number of example layouts of lettering & logo positions on a mat, click the Layouts on Wrestling Mats Button on the right side of the page.

Lettering can be applied on both sides of the mat in any location. It's important to know if the mat will be a one-piece or if the mat will be cut into sections (horizontal or vertical cuts). Preferably, lettering shouldn't be located on a seam of the mat. Click on "Sections" in Mat Features for more information about cut configurations.

Below describes the some options and locations to apply lettering.

1. Facing the Same Direction
   Lettering and logos can face in the same direction. See Example.
   
2. Facing Opposite Direction
   If you want your audience on opposite sides of the mat to be able to read & view logos properly, the lettering & logos can face out. We suggest submitting a drawing/layout of how you would like the lettering and logos to be positioned on the mat. See Example.

Left & Right Sides of the Mat
Choose to have lettering go vertically up and/or down the left and right sides of the mat. The vertical lettering can be centered (See Example) or can start at the top left edge and/or the bottom right edge of the mat.

Top & Bottom Sides of the Mat
Lettering can be placed horizontally across the top and bottom edges of the mat. The lettering can be centered (See Example), flush left, and/or flush right. Some clients have chosen to have the letters running across the top to start at the top left corner (flush left) and then the letters running across the bottom of the mat to start at the bottom right corner (flush right) (See Example). Also, lettering can be arched outside the large circle on the top and/or bottom. See Example.

Corners of the Mat
Lettering in the corners of the mats is one of the most widely locations for lettering and logos. Letters can be be horizontal, staggered, interlocking, or angled at 45°.

Wrestling Area of the Mat
Lettering can be arched inside the wrestling area of the mat near the inside of the 28' or 32' wrestling circle. See Example.

Center of the Mat
Lettering can be applied in the center of the mat. However, Resilite doesn't suggest putting the logos or lettering in this location. Over time & years of use, the logos or lettering in the center of the mat will receive wear & tear. See Example.

Lettering can be applied numerous ways in the center of a 10' circle. If there are more than two words, arch the first word inside the top of the 10' circle and arch the second word inside the bottom of the 10' circle. Stagger letters if there are two or three letters.
