EVA Interlocking Jigsaw Mats for MMA

EVA interlocking jigsaw mats such as those sold by Ezymats are a form or safety flooring commonly used by a variety of martial arts especially MMA (mixed martial arts). They are used to minimise the impact of falling during training. All martial arts have training methods which from time to time necessitate falling to the floor. Especially in MMA, where there is combination of martial arts including judo and wrestling,  students can be expected to throw one another on to the mats. Jigsaw mats are an excellent way to mitigate the effects of being thrown or falling. Also where there is grappling or rolling on the flour jigsaw mats help create a clean even surface to training to take place.

EVA (Ethylene vinyl acetate)

EVA is one of the materials popularly known as expanded rubber or foam rubber. EVA foam is used as padding in equipment for various sports such as ski boots, bicycle saddles, hockey pads, boxing and mixed martial arts gloves and helmets, wakeboard boots, waterski boots, fishing rods and fishing reel handles. It is typically used as a shock absorber in sports shoes, for example. It is used for the manufacture of floats for commercial fishing gear such as purse seine (seine fishing) and gillnets. In addition, because of its buoyancy, EVA has made its way into non-traditional products such as floating eyewear. It is also used in the photovoltaics industry as an encapsulation material for silicon cells in the manufacture of photovoltaic modules. EVA slippers and sandals are currently very popular because of their properties like light weight, easy to mold, odorless, glossy finish, and cheaper compared to natural rubber. In fishing rods, it is used to construct handles on the rod-butt end. EVA can be used as a substitute for cork in many applications.

EVA is used in the manufacture of the Adidas Jabulani football and Native shoes. EVA is used in orthotics, fire safe cigarettes (FSC), surfboard and skimboard traction pads, and for the manufacturing of some artificial flowers. It is used as a cold flow improver for diesel fuel and a separater in HEPA filters. EVA can easily be cut from sheets and molded to shape. It is also used to make thermoplastic mouthguards that soften in boiling water for a user specific fit. It is also used for impregnation of leather. Additional uses are in the making of nicotine transdermal patches since the copolymer binds well with other agents to form gel like substances. EVA is also sometimes used for making body bags. So EVA is a multi-purpose product used in a number of products not just jigsaw mats.

Jigsaw

The jigsaw mats is modelled on the same concept of jigsaw puzzles. A jigsaw puzzle is a tiling puzzle that requires the assembly of numerous small, often oddly shaped, interlocking and tessellating pieces. Each piece usually has a small part of a picture on it; when complete, a jigsaw puzzle produces a complete picture. In some cases more advanced types have appeared on the market, such as spherical jigsaws and puzzles showing optical illusions.

Jigsaw mats are available in a number of different thicknesses. The activity usually determines what thickness is used. The higher the impact the thicker the mat. So for example activities such as judo will user a thicker jigsaw mat then say aerobics. Both activities require jigsaw mats to minimise effects on the body and joints.

Uses of Different Mats Thickness

 

The thickness of the mats depends on the use of the mats. It is up to the user of the mats to determine what thickness is required for their activity or training area. The 40mm Jigsaw Mats more suited for falling martial arts. The would including sports such as Judo, Jiu Jitsu and Aikido as the 40mm thickness offers more protection. Constant throwing and grappling can often lead to injury if adequate padding is not available during impact. Also other aspects of their training like rolling and break-falls require protection. Therefore, the thicker the mat the better the protection.The 40mm jigsaw mats also offer excellent value for money because they offer more protection then mats which are half as thick yet not half the price. For this reason they are a popular choice of jigsaw mats.

How this should your mats be?

Customers that don’t require so much protection can chose to opt for thinner mats such as 20mm or 30mm. These mats also offer good protection during training activities. They are also more cost effective then thicker mats and cost less to ship. If there is a  need to store the exercise mats and there is  limited storage space then a thinner mat may be a good choice. Although our standard sizes are 20mm and 30mm again different thicknesses can be ordered on specially order. The factory has the capacity to manufacture 15mm and 25mm mats. 

The different thicknesses of mats available

The 30mm jigsaw mat might be thinner but they are still popular for a broad range of activities. Even with grappling martial arts they are popular as they are thick enough to offer protection. If you visit a BJJ school you are probably as likely to find 30mm as you are 40mm, particularly is there is no MMA component in their training. With grappling arts such as BJJ they are especially sought after as most of BJJ training is confined to the ground. While there are throws in the system most of training occurs on the ground as too does the “rolling” component. Other wrestling activities that find that they spend less time on their feet then on the ground also may conclude that a thinner mat might more suitable for their training area.

 

With 20mm jigsaw mats you will find that they are mainly used where there is less falling involved and less transition between the ground and standing position. So while they are great for aerobics and martial arts like Tae Kwon Do, they might not be recommend for something like judo or jiu-jitsu. Indeed if you walk into most gyms where there is an area fitted out for palates, yoga etc there is a likelihood that there will me 20mm mats in use. They may be thinner then the other mats but they still provide protection. They are great for reducing fatigue during training and other activities. If you have a hard surface such as concrete it is a good idea to have foam flooring.

 

There is no substitute for training safe

It is important to note that whilst training mats can provide protection again injury they are no substitute for common sense and a well planned training regime. While the mats are intended to reduce injury during falls they may not be effective if you fall in a precarious position such as your head or neck. It is therefore important to take care when you are training as prevention starts with you. Also where the mats are intended for areas fitted out for children it is imperative that you have adult supervision. Again the mats might reduce injury by reducing impact during falls but can not prevent them all together.

EVA jigsaw mats are a popular choice for many different activities. That is why Ezymats stock the three most popular thicknesses and different colour options.
