Description
Waterproof Dog Crate Mat with Egg Crate Foam – Grey
This crate mat features a layer of egg crate (convoluted) foam that is both supportive and breathable, topped with a waterproof cover that protects the inner foam from accidents. The grey exterior is soft to lie on and easy to wipe clean. The egg crate texture helps distribute weight and allows some airflow between the mat and the dog, which can be beneficial in warmer weather. It is a functional, long‑lasting mat for dogs that need a little extra protection against dampness.
- Suitable for: Suitable for dogs up to approximately 30 kg, including breeds such as Boxers, Collies, and Springer Spaniels. The egg crate foam is supportive enough for medium to large dogs and can help relieve pressure on joints. The waterproof layer makes it a good choice for puppies that are being crate trained, incontinent older dogs, or any pet that tends to drool or spill water.
- Ideal scenarios: Use in a dog crate, on a tiled floor, in a veterinary recovery space, or in the back of a vehicle. The waterproof cover ensures that small spills or accidents do not soak into the foam, which helps keep the mat odour‑free over time. It can also be used as a travel mat for camping or hotel stays.
Material: The foam is polyurethane egg crate foam, approximately 4–5 cm thick, with peaks and valleys that create a textured surface. The cover is a waterproof polyester fabric, backed with a thin membrane that repels liquid. The base of the cover has a non‑slip dotted texture to help it stay in place. The cover is removable and machine washable, while the foam core should not be washed.
Structure and features: The mat is a single foam pad encased in a waterproof, removable cover. The soft surface is wipeable and feels smooth. The egg crate foam gives a slightly massaging effect and promotes air circulation, which helps keep the dog cooler. The non‑slip base prevents the mat from moving on the crate tray or hard floors. The cover has a zipper closure that can be tucked away.
Care and maintenance: Remove the cover and machine wash in cool water with mild detergent; air‑dry. Do not wash the foam core. If the foam becomes soiled, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap, then let it air completely before reinserting the cover. Rotate the foam periodically to maintain its shape.
Packaging: The foam may be rolled and compressed for shipping, with the cover packed separately. After unpacking, allow the foam up to 48 hours to fully expand. Insert the foam into the cover and zip closed.
Important notes: A single mat is supplied. The waterproof cover is resistant to normal pet accidents but should not be submerged. Allow the foam to air after unpacking to eliminate any initial foam scent. As with all crate mats, monitor the dog’s first use to ensure they do not try to chew the cover or zipper.
