Vacumatt is the next-generation silicon non-slip pet mat with integrated bowl spaces. The product has ‘a modern lifestyle look’ and its uniqueness lies in the technology which allows the mat to create a suction to the floor. Available as a single and double diner and in three sizes (250ml, 500ml and 900ml), the mat comes in a light grey to complement most domestic environments. Retail prices range from £9.99 for the 250ml single diner to £29.99 to the 900ml double diner. Vacumatt has been trademarked in Europe and Classic Pet Products is the exclusive distributor in the UK.
