At 2.8 kg per square metre it has real weight to it, which is why it lies flat and stays where you put it. Water goes in on contact, and the rubber base keeps the whole thing anchored.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\t\u003ctbody\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e60 x 90 cm (23.6 x 35.4 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eCotton chenille\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e2.8 kg\/m²\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eSurface\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eChunky popcorn loops in a herringbone layout\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eColour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eCream\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eBacking\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eRubber, non-slip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eEdges\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eBound, does not curl or warp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eShedding\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eTightly woven, no fluff shedding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003eDrying\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003eBreathable and quick drying\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the weight matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2.8 kg per square metre is a lot for a bath mat, and you feel it immediately — thick enough underfoot to be genuinely comfortable, heavy enough that it does not shift when you step onto one corner. Light mats skate across tile and rumple up against the door; a dense one sits still. It also means there is more yarn to hold water, so one person coming out of the shower does not saturate it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLoops rather than cut pile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface is built from closed chenille loops instead of cut fibres standing on end. Closed loops do not shed — nothing comes away in your hand or ends up stuck to wet feet — and they do not mat down into a flat grey patch where you always stand. They also dry faster, because air moves between the loops rather than being trapped in a dense pile. It is the construction that makes the difference between a mat that still looks good in two years and one that does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it go mouldy?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo treatment is claimed and none is needed if you let it breathe. The open loop structure dries quickly, so hang it over the bath or a rail once a week and it stays fresh. Mould grows in mats that stay permanently damp against a cold floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I wash it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nCool wash, no fabric softener, air dry flat. Heat is what damages a rubber backing and makes the edges curl, so keep it out of the tumble dryer. Shake it out once dry and the loops stand back up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSee the rest of this size in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/collections\/large-bath-mats\"\u003elarge bath mats\u003c\/a\u003e, or browse more in this colour in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/collections\/white-bath-mats\"\u003ewhite bath mats\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"offer-template-0\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Bath mat","offers":[{"title":"60x90cm","offer_id":55230869602647,"sku":"14:1052#A;183:200007742#60x90cm","price":52.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1046\/3733\/3847\/files\/S2df5af40cf5d4d6abf35cc79ae106c56a.webp?v=1790948423","url":"https:\/\/bath-mat.co.uk\/products\/cotton-bath-mat-in-cream","provider":"Bath mat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
