Structure of a Folded Gymnastics Mat

The folding gymnastics mat consists of several thick rectangular panels hinged together so they stack neatly when folded. Reinforced handles on the outer edge allow the mat to be carried between exercise areas.

How Panel Mats Are Used in Athletics

Sectional folding mats, also known as panel mats, provide firm impact protection for floor exercises, martial arts, and preschool gymnastics routines. Heavy-duty vinyl covers protect the interior polyethylene foam from moisture while keeping the surface smooth and easy to wipe clean. When unfolded flat, the mat creates a continuous cushioned lane for practicing rolls, cartwheels, and stretches.

Common Colors of Gymnastics Mats

  • Outer vinyl cover: royal blue, navy, red, or dark green
  • Side carrying handles: black or dark gray webbing
  • Panel seams and trim: black or matching vinyl color
  • Bottom surface: dark blue or gray non-slip material
Questions and answers

Questions and Answers

Why do gym mats fold into separate rectangular panels?
Folding panels make mats easier to store in storage closets, adjust to different room sizes, and carry using side handles.
What type of foam is used inside folding mats?
Most panel mats use cross-linked polyethylene foam, which provides a firm cushion that prevents gymnasts from sinking while absorbing jumps.
How are multiple gymnastics mats connected together?
Many folding mats feature hook-and-loop fasteners along their edges so coaches can join several mats together into a larger floor space.
