01
35mm of foam between your child and the floorboards
Polished timber and tile are unforgiving when someone is learning to walk. The Relax Mat is 35mm of slow rebound foam, so it absorbs the drop instead of passing it straight through. Thick enough to soften a tumble, firm enough that they can still push up, crawl and stand without sinking into it.
02
Yoghurt, milk & vomit all wipe straight off
The usual problem with soft flooring is that it becomes one more thing to clean. The Relax Mat surface is stain and spill resistant, so what lands on it sits on top rather than soaking in. A damp cloth and you are done. For high traffic rooms, go darker.
03
It looks like a rug, not a playmat
Interlocking foam tiles do the job and make your lounge room look like a gym. The Relax Mat comes in neutrals and designer prints that read as a rug, which means it stays down permanently instead of being rolled away before people come over.
04
Non-toxic and OEKO-TEX certified
Babies spend tummy time face down on this, so what it is made of matters. The materials are non-toxic and OEKO-TEX certified, meaning they have been tested for harmful substances. Worth checking on any foam product before it goes on the floor.
05
Non-slip base, no curled corners
A rug that slides on floorboards is a hazard once there is a toddler running on it. The Relax Mat has a non-slip backing and enough weight to sit flat, so it does not ruck up or travel across the room.
06
It will not be redundant in eighteen months
Tummy time, then crawling, then fort building, then a yoga mat, then where you end up on a Sunday afternoon. Same mat. It also folds and rolls, so it moves rooms or goes to the grandparents without a fight.
07
Your dog will get there before you do
Older dogs that struggle to climb into a raised bed take to it quickly, because the foam cushions their joints and there is no lip to get over. Muddy paws, drool and accidents wipe off the same as everything else.
The Relax Mat™ is 35mm of dense, slow rebound foam wrapped in a soft, spill and stain resistant cover. Lie on it, play on it, walk across it barefoot. Once you feel the difference, ordinary rugs are ruined for you.

Spill and stain resistant
Super soft underfoot
Easy to clean
Non toxic
Lightweight and foldable
Non slip bottom
High density foam, so no underlay is needed
For kids
Hard floors and little ones are a rough combination. The Relax Mat gives kids a soft, safe zone to roll, crawl and play, and gives you one less thing to worry about. It's brilliant for tummy time too. For high traffic areas we recommend the darker colours.
For pets
A proper resting spot for your pet, without a pet bed cluttering the room. The spill and stain resistant cover makes accidents easy to clean up, and every dog that has modelled on one of our photo shoots has been very reluctant to get off it.
For your home
If you've moved into a place with hard flooring, this is the fix. 35mm of foam underfoot turns a bedroom or living room into the most comfortable space in the house.
Colours
Available in Charcoal Grey, Buttermilk Beige, Dove Grey, Black, Berry Blue, Race Track and Farm. There may be slight colour differences due to lighting and monitor displays.
Materials
A soft polyester outer with a dense foam inner. The 35mm thickness is measured from the middle of the mat, not the edges.
Please don't use the mat on polished concrete or floors with acrylic based finishes.
As good as reviewed by others! Perfect for me because I'm a floor-dweller in my fifties so the hard floors in our new house were uncomfortable for me. I make a habit to stretch daily and read on the floor since I sit in chairs all day at work but the hard floor was thwarting the habit. And, I too, fell asleep on this mat.
Absolutely love it! The kids love to roll around in it. My son drew on it with black marker the day we got it and I used a damp cloth to wipe it and it came straight off!! I was so impressed! Def worth every penny, especially when you have kids.
We absolutely LOVE our Muscle Mat Mattress Topper. It is so cozy and comfortable - we have had the best sleeps since purchasing it. Definitely would recommend.
Best purchase ever. Our kids has been loving the softness of the rug and loved to lie on it.
Will definitely recommend to our friends & will buy it again.
Wellington apartment. Absolutely love this rug. In fact everyone who walks on it loves it. So warm, comfy and I'm so glad I took the chance. I wasn't sold on the colour straight away. It's a chocolate brown. But with the accessories I'm slowly adding it's fitting in perfectly. And very affordable for what it is. Highly recommend!
Absolutely love our new rug! ❤️ It’s been such a hit with the whole family, especially the kids, who seem to spend more time playing on the mat than sitting on the couches! 😂 Such a great addition to our home. Highly recommend!
We really love our muscle mat, and every person who enters our lounge comments on how comfy it is! I spend a lot of time on the floor with my baby, and it's perfect for while she learns how to sit and crawl.
Just two things to note: the beige colour is more of a very light dusty pink tone, and the grey colour has a very subtle blue undertone - my mum has the grey designer. Also, it is very soft and velvety to start, but areas where we regularly sit and walk become a bit more rough and matted like - as to be expected! (I have had for about three months now) Similar to a soft blanket after a few washes. Photos attached of worn vs new area.
Overall, particularly for the price, I would highly recommend and would purchase again.
We absolutely love our Muscle Mat and only wish we’d bought one sooner! The kids are constantly lying on it, playing games, and enjoying it. It’s been such a great purchase for the whole family. We couldn’t recommend it enough! ⭐️
We love the mat. My kids love to just sleep on it in our lounge without any mattress. I recommend it to my friends and they will order one. I will be ordering one again for my kitchen.
Love it, just hope it lasts. My dark grey designer one top layer separated from foam and became wrinkly because of it, drove me nuts so purchased another hoping it wasn’t a common fault. As My smaller grey ones didn’t do it, epilepsy son so these are all through my house in every room highly recommended! Now they are disguised as normal rugs even better! Shaggy ones don’t hold up tho in my opinion. Matt up fast, especially with kids definitely stick with designer. Have many of each style designer all the way!
100 percent true to the product we have 4 dog's they absolutely love it an not only is the rug so comfortable it's also so easy to clean will definitely be shopping again a huge thank you to the team
Our designer relax mat is adored across our entire household. It’s become the ultimate relaxing spot! The white has added so much light to our living room. Not only is the designer mat aesthetically appealing, the comfort is next level. Most if not all people that walk into our home comment on how cozy it looks AND feels. I don’t think there will ever be a time in my life where we won’t have a muscle mat in our home!!
