 Laboratory Mat (Silicon Rubber) is a durable, flexible, and non-slip bench accessory designed for safe handling of laboratory glassware and instruments. Its heat-resistant and chemically stable structure protects work surfaces from spills, scratches, vibrations, and thermal shocks. Suitable for high-precision environments, it enhances safety, improves workflow stability, and extends the lifespan of lab equipment.

 Key Features

• High-grade silicone rubber for superior durability and flexibility
• Non-slip surface ensures stable placement of flasks, beakers, and instruments
• Excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, and mechanical wear
• Provides cushioning to reduce glassware breakage and bench damage
• Easy to clean, reusable, and long-lasting
• Flat, uniform surface ideal for general laboratory use
• Maintains grip even when wet or exposed to chemical spills
• Odor-free and non-toxic, suitable for sensitive workspaces
