Made for everyday family life
Childhood rarely stays in one place for long. One moment the floor is covered in building blocks, the next it becomes a race track, a reading corner, a place for colouring, stretching or simply spending time together. A Corkademy mat creates a dedicated space for all of these everyday moments.
As children grow, the way the mat is used often changes too. What begins as a play space for a baby may later become a base for puzzles, imaginative play, family board games, reading, movement activities or even an oversized yoga mat once the children are asleep.
Natural Materials Working Together
Every Corkademy mat combines two carefully chosen materials. The upper layer is made from natural Portuguese cork, valued for its warmth, comfort and unique tactile feel. Beneath it sits a dense natural foam rubber backing that helps keep the mat securely in place while providing light cushioning underfoot.
Together, they create a practical surface that feels comfortable to sit, kneel and play on while standing up to the demands of everyday family life.

Independently Tested for Peace of Mind
We believe parents should be able to make informed choices about the products they bring into their homes. Corkademy mats have been independently tested to relevant EN71 toy safety standards and screened for SVHC substances under REACH regulations.
Made from FSC-certified natural cork and natural foam rubber, they do not contain phthalates commonly associated with some plastic play surfaces. Suitable from around 6 months, they are designed to support many stages of childhood that follow.
Comfortable, practical, made for everyday use
From living rooms and playrooms to nurseries and childcare settings, Corkademy mats are made to be lived on. Children gather on them to build, read, play and create, while grown-ups often find themselves sitting down and joining in.
Naturally insulating, cork feels warm and comfortable underfoot throughout the year. The natural texture is pleasant to touch, while the dense foam rubber backing helps keep the mat securely in place. Day-to-day cleaning is simple too. Most marks can be removed with a damp cloth and warm water, while tougher spots can be gently cleaned with mild soap or diluted white vinegar.
Like all natural materials, cork benefits from a little care and develops character over time, reflecting years of play, creativity and everyday family life.
