Silicone Protective Bench Mat - 250 x 250mm

The Silicone Protective Bench Mat (250mm x 250mm) is the perfect balance of surface area and compactness for moderate-sized science experiments. Crafted from durable, heat-resistant silicone, this mat provides an excellent barrier between hot apparatus and your lab benches, reducing the risk of heat damage, chemical spills or equipment slippage. Its smooth, ridge-free surface supports easy cleanup between classes.

This non-slip, versatile mat is especially suited to high-rotation classroom use, where maintaining clean and safe workspaces is key. It serves as a practical and safety-enhancing tool that reinforces responsible lab behaviour and helps teachers set up consistent routines for practical sessions.
