The mat that does not stay home

It is Tuesday afternoon. The same mat that was at the beach on Saturday is on the living room floor for painting. That is what the Explore Mat (L) does. It goes to the park, the garden, the grandparents' house, and back again. It wipes clean whether it has been under a paint session or face-down on sand. Most mats belong to one room. This one belongs to the family.

At 134 cm it gives a family of four room to sit together. Folds flat despite its size, light enough to carry in one hand. It drapes over irregular surfaces and edges rather than lying rigid. It works on grass, on decking, on a sloped terrace, not just a flat indoor floor.

The surface has a deliberate texture but no pattern. Most play mats have printed designs that visually compete with everything placed on top of them. This one does not. Whether it is a Lego session, a craft project, or a picnic spread, everything shows clearly against a calm, haptic background. The mat steps back so the activity can step forward.

Made from the same grade of silicone used in baby pacifiers. The surface is soft, non-porous, and completely odourless. One continuous piece of silicone leather. No seams, no tags, no stitching that traps sand, food, or moisture. It does not crack, peel, or harden over time the way vinyl does.

After the beach, rinse it under a tap and fold it back into the bag. No sand trapped in fibres, no machine wash, no drying time. Ready for the park tomorrow. The non-slip underside keeps it steady on wood, tile, stone, and grass. The dual-tone finish tells you at a glance which side was last on the floor. The textured underside will gather dust and hair over time. A quick submerge in the sink is the easiest reset.

Certified Oeko-Tex Standard 100, Class I, the most stringent safety standard for direct contact with baby skin. Free from PVC, BPA, and phthalates. Designed in Switzerland, made in Korea.

CHF 149. One mat for the living room, the park, the beach, and everything in between.

FAQs

Does the mat slip on wooden, vinyl or tiled floors?

No. The underside is slightly textured to stay steady on smooth surfaces. If the floor is dusty or has polish residue, a quick wipe with a microfibre cloth improves grip.

Can the mat go in the washing machine or dishwasher?

No. It should rarely be machine washed. If you do wash it between use cases, use the handwash setting. Never put it in the dishwasher as food particles may coat the mat under extreme temperatures. The mat is antimicrobial and cleans faster than any fabric product with a simple wipe. Allow to dry fully before storing for extended periods.

How do I clean the mat properly?

Use warm water, a soft cloth and gentle soap. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive scrubbers or bleach as these can damage the surface.

Full cleaning guidance is available on our textile care page.

Is the mat safe for babies and toddlers?

Yes. Huske mats are certified under Oeko Tex 100 class one and the Korean Eco Label. They are free from PVC, BPA, phthalates, lead, latex and odour. They are safe for daily use from newborn and suitable for sensitive skin.

Is it safe for warm plates or trays?

Yes, the mats can replace an oven glove or heat mat. The silicone leather is heat resistant and handles warm dishes. Keep away from red hot coals as they exceed the heat resistance barrier.

Will food stains or colour transfer mark the mat?

Most marks wipe away with warm water and a gentle soap. Very strong pigments, such as turmeric, tomato sauce, beetroot or certain craft materials, may leave a temporary tint. These usually fade over time with regular cleaning, light pressure and sunlight exposure.

See our textile care page for detailed guidance on specific materials.

Are Huske mats really waterproof?

Yes. Huske mats are fully waterproof, not water resistant. Spills pool on the surface and can be wiped clean instantly with a soft cloth. There is no fabric layer and nothing that absorbs liquid, so moisture never soaks through.

How durable are they? Will they crack like vinyl?

Silicone leather will not crack, curl, fade or become brittle. Vinyl often hardens over time and shows stress lines, especially when folded. Huske mats stay soft and flexible for years and can be folded or rolled without damage.

Can I use this as a baby play mat?

Yes. The Roam Mat is suitable for tummy time, early crawling and floor play. For larger floor coverage, many families pair it with the Wriggle Mat.

What if I do not like the colour or the size?

You can return your unused mat within the 60 day return window. If you are unsure about sizing, see our mat size guide before ordering.

Where are Huske mats made?

Designed in Switzerland and made in Korea in a fully audited, ISO 9001 certified facility that specialises in silicone products. The mats Oeko Tex 100/1 certified.

How sustainable is the mat?

Huske mats are made from long lasting silicone leather, certified under Oeko Tex 100 class one and the Korean Eco Label. They are designed to replace disposable or frequently replaced fabric mats, reducing waste over time.

Will pet nails damage the mat?

Normal pet movement is fine. Very sharp nails or repeated scratching can leave light surface marks, similar to any soft silicone product.

Can I use it outdoors?

Yes. Huske mats are water resistant, heat tolerant, UV fast and easy to clean after outdoor use.

Why families choose Huske over vinyl

  • Safe materials
    Huske mats are certified to OEKO TEX 100 1 and Korea Eco Label standards. They contain no PVC, no phthalates and no BPA. Vinyl mats often release VOCs and rely on plasticisers.

  • Easy daily care
    Huske silicone leather wipes clean with water or gentle soap. Vinyl stains and deteriorates with repeated cleaning and chemicals.

  • Durability indoors and outdoors
    Huske mats resist sun, water, heat and daily wear. Vinyl becomes brittle, fades and can crack or peel over time.

  • Sensory positive design
    Huske mats have two sides, two colours and a soft texture that supports calm play, better grip and visual depth. Vinyl is single textured and often overstimulating.

  • Family centred performance
    Heat resistant for ironing, robust for crafting, and soft for babies to lie on. Vinyl cannot offer this flexibility.
