Beemat

About

Beemat is a gymnastics and martial arts matting specialist, and one of the most widely installed safety matting brands in Irish school halls and gymnastics clubs. The range covers everything from a 1in agility mat to a 12in safety landing mat. At McSport Ireland we stock Beemat for schools, gymnastics clubs and martial arts gyms specifying matting to a defined safety standard rather than buying on price alone. Gymnastics mats — lightweight folding mats, deluxe 6ft x 4ft x 1in mats and 2in agility mats with bonded PVC covers Safety landing mats — 6ft x 4ft x 4in through to 8ft x 4ft 6in x 12in crash mats Balance beams and wedges — foldable beams in pink and purple, plus folding incline wedges Martial arts and impact — reversible tatami jigsaw matting and chipfoam mats with latex base, singly or in 10-mat bundles Beemat: common questions What thickness of mat do I need? 1in to 2in agility mats are for floor work, rolls and general PE. 4in to 8in mats suit low-level landings and vaulting. 12in crash mats are used where an athlete lands from height, such as high jump, bar dismounts and advanced vault. What is chipfoam and why does it have a latex base? Chipfoam is recycled foam compressed to a high density, giving excellent energy absorption for landings. The latex base stops the mat sliding across a polished hall floor on impact. Is tatami matting only for martial arts? Tatami jigsaw matting is designed for grappling and judo, but the interlocking format also makes it a practical permanent floor for a home gym or club MMA area.
