The Snug Rug Company

A Snug Rug is a modern take on the traditional Japanese tatami mat, featuring a soft velvet top layer, a waterproof membrane, followed by a middle layer of High Elastic PuffySponge™, and an anti-slip backing. These rugs provide a cushioned, luxurious surface for any home​.

The Snug Rug Company has partnered with the wonderful and multi-award winning Momomi Japan to bring these amazing waterproof rugs to the UK for the first time!

There isn’t anything else like this on the market in the UK. Snug Rugs are an amazing hybrid between a rug and a playmat. They have all the functionalities of a playmat (waterproof & wipe clean) with all the warmth and comfort of a rug. They only require a regular vacuum on a low setting and a spot clean as required if there are any spills. No liquids can get past the waterproof membrane and into the rug.

The majority of woven rugs and playmat in the UK are 10mm thick. Our rugs are 30mm thick!

Once it has arrived, open the seal of the vacuum packaging and watch it unfold. It usually takes 3-5 days for your rug to fully puff up.

unfolds, as they will disappear as your rug puffs up over time! It will take approximately 3 to 5 days for your rug to puff up completely.
