Collection: Picnic Mats

Our outdoor picnic mats give you a lightweight, easy-clean base for picnics at the park, days at the beach and relaxed afternoons in the backyard. Each mat forms a barrier against damp ground and sharp stones, giving you and your group a dry, comfortable place to sit, share food and enjoy your surroundings in style.

Square and round mats are the most popular for picnics, and our mats are reversible, so check out our extensive range today to find your favourite.

Picnic settings and outdoor uses

Take your mat to the bush, the beach or the riverside for a proper day out. Closer to home, spread it in the backyard, on the deck or by the pool for relaxed outdoor living.

Our outdoor picnic mats suit kids' birthday parties, beach trips and picnics, as well as hens' lunches, baby showers and glam gatherings. They also work for sideline footy matches, festivals and fun events, market stalls and school gatherings, with designs that suit both everyday outings and special celebrations.

If the beach is your main outing, also check out our beach mats for designs grouped by that purpose.

Designs and styles for different outings

Our outdoor picnic mat range runs from small one-person runners through to supersized mats up to 7m long, so you can match the mat to the outing. Choose floral or feminine tones to set the mood for a hens' lunch, baby shower or birthday, or pick an animal or educational design for kids.

Our cultural mats are created by a select team of Indigenous artists, and each design tells a story of their culture.

For example, the 1.8m square Celestial Harmony suits market stalls, gazebos and picnics, while all our 4m, 5m, 6m and 7m mats, including the larger Diamond sizes, include eyelets for tie-down. The round Ancestral Connectedness mat suits gathering for shared meals and conversation, while the large 3.6m round Celebration suits outdoor circle time and storytelling.

Recycled material and outdoor durability

Our colourful recycled plastic mats are made from recycled polypropylene, a durable material found in shopping bags, drink bottles and carpet fibres. The plastic is melted, coloured and spun into strong threads, then woven into mats that are UV-treated, lightweight, reversible, mould-resistant, non-toxic and hypoallergenic.

Our recycled plastic picnic mats are waterproof and easy to clean, making them a practical choice for damp grass, picnic spills and splashes. The breathable weave allows airflow and provides a comfortable layer between you and the ground, while sand and dirt can be shaken or hosed off after a day out.

Caught in a passing shower? The mats are quick drying, so let yours dry thoroughly before folding it away. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to help keep it in good condition for your next outing.

To keep your mat at its best, avoid constant direct sunlight and prolonged moisture, and note that sizes may vary by 5% due to weaving. Our mats are not designed for permanent, long-term sun exposure, are not suitable for children under 3 years, and a non-slip mesh is recommended on slippery surfaces.

Sizes for groups, spaces and activities

Compare the shape and size filters before you buy, from compact runners through to large squares and rounds. The range includes 0.8m x 1.8m and 0.9m x 2.7m runners, 1.8m x 1.8m squares, 3m x 3m mats and large 3.6m rounds.

The 1.8m x 1.8m Celestial Harmony seats several people yet still fits in the boot. The Diamond range offers plenty of room for the whole family, for use inside tents and around campsites.

Our 3m x 3m size suits gazebos, the 3.6m round Celebration suits outdoor circle time, and the Eucalyptus Flower 3m mat includes 22 circles for seating children.

Consider the weight you’ll carry: 1.7kg for the 1.8m x 1.8m Celestial Harmony and 4.5kg for the 3m x 3m Australian Floral. Across the Diamond 2.4m, 4m and 7m sizes, weights are 2.8kg, 5.2kg and 8.5kg.

Think about how many people you usually seat and whether you want extra room for bags, food and a cooler before you pick a size. See the 3-step guide to choosing a mat for help matching size to your group and space.

Portability, storage and care

All mats except our 0.8m x 1.8m and 0.9m x 2.7m runners arrive with a recycled, reusable carry bag for easy transport and storage. Diamond mats 3m and under come in a reusable clear bag, while 4m and above come in a black recycled polyester bag. The compact 0.8m x 1.8m runner is the only size with built-in elastic straps, so it can be secured, attached to a backpack or packed in a suitcase.

The mats are sturdy yet lightweight, so even kids can carry one over the shoulder to and from your picnic site.

Fold your mat correctly for transport and storage, following our step-by-step photo tutorials for large, round, square and rectangular mats. Your mat arrives folded, so allow fold lines to relax in warmer weather or in the sun for a short period before you spread it out.

For storage, refold along the original lines and keep the mat in a dry place out of direct sunlight, without heavy objects on top.

To clean, simply shake, wipe or sweep your mat after each outing. For a deeper clean, wash it down with the hose and a soft broom, then dry it on the line or lying flat. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners and high-pressure washers, as they may damage the fibres.

If a seam loosens with frequent use, restitch it with strong cotton or fishing line, and lift rather than drag furniture to protect the weave. All our 4m, 5m, 6m and 7m mats include eyelets, while smaller mats don't. Matting clips are sold separately to secure mats without eyelets.
