My close friend is opening a gym, part of this includes purchasing these thick rubber mats from Chinese suppliers. The new tariffs made it unprofitable when buying from china. His equipment supplier is currently negotiating with a US supplier. My friend is fine with waiting a few weeks.

I think you mean horse stall mats, which you can find at Tractor Supply, etc. 4’ x 6’ x 3/4” vulcanized rubber:

The ones I have (I used a few in my home gym) were made in Canada. I’m surprised any of these come from China.
