FAQs
What is the primary material of the Aquanova London bath mat?
The primary material is 100% Egyptian combed cotton, known for its softness and absorbency. Some variants may contain a blend with polyester for added durability.
How effective is the anti-slip backing?
The mat features an anti-slip backing with silicone dots designed to securely grip most floor surfaces, enhancing safety by preventing the mat from sliding.
Can I machine wash this bath mat?
While washable, it is recommended to hand wash the mat to best preserve the quality of the Egyptian cotton and the effectiveness of the anti-slip backing. If machine washing, use a gentle cycle at a maximum of 40°C.
What are the dimensions of the mat?
The Aquanova London bath mat measures 60 cm in width and 100 cm in length (60x100 cm).
How do I ensure the mat lasts as long as possible?
To maximize its lifespan, hand wash with mild detergent, avoid temperatures above 40°C, and air dry. Avoid tumble drying and direct harsh sunlight exposure.
Is the 'Graphite' colour the same as 'Grey'?
Graphite is a specific shade of dark grey, often with subtle cool undertones. It fits within the broader 'Grey' colour family and offers a sophisticated, monochromatic look.
What does '1200gsm' mean?
GSM stands for 'Grams per Square Meter', which is a measure of fabric density and weight. A 1200gsm pile indicates a very thick, plush, and absorbent mat.
Troubleshooting
Mat is not lying flat
Ensure the mat is placed on a clean, dry, and level surface. If the mat has been folded, allow it to relax for a few hours in a warm room, or gently roll it in the opposite direction for a short period.
Anti-slip backing seems less effective
Clean the underside of the mat and the floor surface. Dust or residue can diminish the grip. Hand wash the mat and allow it to air dry completely. Ensure the floor is also clean and dry.
Colour fading after washing
Ensure you are washing within the recommended temperature limit (max 40°C) and using a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach. Air drying in shade rather than direct sunlight can also help preserve colour.
Mat feels stiff after washing
This can sometimes happen with natural fibres. Ensure you are not using fabric softener, which can affect absorbency and fibre texture. Gentle hand washing and air drying should maintain softness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Unroll the mat and place it flat in your desired bathroom location. Ensure the floor surface is clean and dry before placing the mat to allow the anti-slip backing to adhere effectively.
Compatibility: The Aquanova London bath mat is designed for use on most standard bathroom floor surfaces, including tile, vinyl, and laminate. The anti-slip backing is intended to provide grip without damaging most floor finishes. However, always test on an inconspicuous area if you have concerns about your specific flooring.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: The mat is washable, but it is recommended to hand wash it to maintain the integrity of the fibres and the anti-slip backing.
- Maximum Temperature: Do not exceed a washing temperature of 40°C.
- Drying: Air dry the mat. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can degrade the anti-slip backing and damage the cotton fibres.
- Cleaning: For minor spills or dirt, spot clean with a damp cloth. Ensure the mat is fully dry before placing it back on the floor.
