The self-healing cutting mat from ProtectMats is the best custom cutting mat solution for precise, safe, and long-lasting cutting tasks. Its self-healing surface automatically closes up after each cut, keeping the mat smooth and ready for repeated use. This cutting mat features a non-slip bottom that ensures it stays firmly in place—even during heavy-duty work—and the liquid-resistant surface protects your table from spills and damage. It also absorbs sound, reducing tool noise for a quieter, more comfortable workspace. Plus, its insulating properties prevent your work table from feeling cold during extended use.

This work mat is fully custom-sized to fit your unique workbench or workspace—perfect for both hobbyists and professionals. Whether you need a large self healing cutting mat or a compact one, ProtectMats creates the right fit for your needs.

Our custom self healing cutting mat is available in three finishes: clear (transparent), frosted (non-reflective), and anti-static (repels dust and reduces electrostatic buildup). These variants are suited for a wide range of uses including craft cutting mat, cutting mat for sewing, cutting mats for quilting, and even as a fabric cutting board.

Customer Questions
What are self-healing cutting mats?
A self-healing cutting mat ensures that cut marks disappear on their own. The surface closes after each cut, keeping the mat flatter and smoother for longer, allowing for more precise cutting. This not only extends the mat’s lifespan but also reduces wear on your tools.
What are the shipping costs and delivery times?
The average delivery time is 1–2 business days, but it can take up to 5 business days. Shipping costs are $4.99 throughout the US, including tax. We offer FREE shipping across the US for orders over $120.
What material are the mats made of?
Our mats are made of flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) without harmful plasticizers.
How are PVC mats recycled at your company?
PVC is a versatile material that is highly suitable for recycling. Old PVC protective mats can be returned to our address: Industriestraat 9, 2500 Lier. Upon receipt, the mats are cleaned and shredded into small PVC granules. This recycled PVC is then used in the production of new protective mats and a wide range of other products, including water bottles, flower pots, and stadium seats. By using PVC in a circular process, we minimize waste and reduce the demand for new raw materials, resulting in lower CO₂ emissions.
Will my mat be cut to the exact size?
At ProtectMats, we custom-make your mat in the desired thickness, width, and shape. Thanks to our advanced CNC-controlled oscillating blade cutting machines, we cut each mat with the utmost precision, ensuring the final result perfectly matches your application. Please note that PVC is a living material: a minimal variation in length may occur over time due to natural shrinkage.
Are there any harmful plasticizers in your mats?
No, our mats are completely free from harmful plasticizers such as DEHP and DINP. They are safe for humans, animals, and the environment, and contain no hazardous substances. For flexibility, we only use harmless DOTP plasticizers. Our mats meet the strictest standards: they are REACH-compliant (phtalate-free) and tested according to ISO16000-9.
How can I keep my mat clean?
Our mat is easy to clean with a damp cloth and, if needed, a mild, pH-neutral cleaning solution. For stubborn stains, you can try removing them with acetone-free nail polish remover.
Can I request a quote?
Of course! At ProtectMats, you can easily request a quote for any project. This can be done via our webshop or by sending an email to sales@protect-mats.com. Our sales team will be happy to prepare a personalized quote for you.
Which mat thickness should I choose?
Our mats are available in three thickness options, ensuring you can choose the perfect fit for your application: 3 mm: Ideal for semi-professional use, crafts, and hobby projects. Not recommended for daily cutting. 5 mm: Suitable for professional and intensive use. This thicker mat provides extra protection and stability for your work surface. 7 mm: Designed for (extremely) heavy use in industrial applications. The extra-thick mat is exceptionally durable and offers maximum protection for tables and workbenches.
Which material type should I choose?
Our mats are available in three different finishes, so you can always choose the material that best fits your needs: Clear A subtle form of protection that preserves the original look of your furniture while keeping any underlying grids or papers visible. Antistatic Designed to reduce static electricity and repel dust, ideal for laboratories and cleanrooms, body shops, and schools where electronic equipment is used. Frosted Reduces reflections, making them perfect for light-sensitive workspaces such as those near large windows or under bright lamps. These mats also have low adhesion, allowing stickers, tape, and other adhesives to be removed easily.
Does my mat have a certain smell?
New PVC mats may have a slight, characteristic odor upon delivery. This is normal and usually disappears within a few days after unpacking and airing out. The odor is harmless, and the material is completely safe for use.
Can the size of my mat change over time?
PVC is a living material that can slightly react to temperature and environmental changes. As a result, a minimal change in length may occur over time. This is a normal characteristic of the material and does not affect the quality or functionality of the mat.
Doubt about color or material?
Not sure about the color or want to feel the quality first? Order your sample for just $1, including shipping! Samples are sent by regular mail and may take a little longer to arrive than our standard packages.
What shapes can I order?
We cut your mat, floor protector or table cover exactly to size. Standard shapes include rectangles, circles, ovals, and ellipses. Have a unique shape—such as a rounded L-shaped table or a playful kidney shape? Email us a DXF file with the exact dimensions, and we’ll cut the tablecloth precisely according to your file.

Rectangle/square: A rectangular (or square) mat is machine-cut at no extra cost.

Circle: If you choose a round mat, enter the diameter of the mat you want to receive. An additional charge of $5 applies.

Ellipse: With an ellipse, the corners of the mat are rounded so strongly that none of its sides are straight.
Please note: Not sure if your table has an elliptical shape? Contact us. An additional charge of $5 applies for this shape.
Oval: An oval is a rectangle in which the two opposite sides are replaced by half circles. The image alongside is a good example. An additional charge of $5 applies for this shape.
