What is a non-slip mat?

A non-slip placemat is a mat made of non-slip PVC. Designed to stop plates, bowls, and cups from moving or sliding around. They can be helpful at mealtimes.

Otherwise known as anchor mats, these mats grip work surfaces, tabletops, and other dry surfaces and stop anything placed on top from moving around. They come in a range of sizes to suit you and the task you’re tackling.

They are useful to help you eat a meal if you are one-handed, have a hand tremor, limited dexterity, pain, fatigue, or arm weakness.
