1️⃣Home Fitness Scenarios: 10mm–20mm, Portable & Practical for Light Exercises
Home fitness mainly includes yoga and bodyweight training.
✔️Why this thickness works？
60*60cm EVA Fitness Mats with 10mm–20mm thickness deliver moderate resilience without interfering with balance perception.
The 15–20mm version upgrades cushioning performance, absorbing impact from squats and lunges to protect knees and ankles. The material also provides sound insulation, reducing exercise noise to avoid disturbing neighbors.
Soft EVA foam ensures comfort, while the interlocking tile design enables easy DIY installation.
2️⃣Weight Training Zones: 20mm–40mm, High-Strength Load-Bearing Protection Barrier
Strength training with dumbbells, barbells and other equipment has extremely high requirements for cushioning and load-bearing capacity.
✔️Why this thickness works？
Large 1*1m mats with 20mm–40mm thickness are highly suitable.
- The 20mm version provides basic cushioning against equipment impact, protecting floors and joints.
- The 30–40mm version uses high-density foaming technology to resist long-term heavy pressure and sudden impact from heavy equipment, resisting dents and deformation.
The five-line surface texture enhances friction, securing feet and equipment even during sweaty workouts. With interlocking design, the mats fit tightly without gaps or warping, making them the core choice for home and commercial gym strength zones.
3️⃣Martial Arts & MMA: 30mm–50mm, Ultimate Cushioning Safety Shield
Taekwondo, MMA and other combat sports demand maximum impact absorption.
✔️Why this thickness works？

- The 40–50mm version uses ultra-density foaming to effectively absorb vertical impact from falls, reducing injury risks to joints and the head.
