Desk Mat Deflecto DM12060GW, reversible flexible leatherette writing desk protector, grey/white, 1200 x 600 mm

The Deflecto DM12060GW desk mat is a reversible, flexible leatherette writing desk protector sized 1200 x 600 mm. One side offers a grey surface and the other side a white surface, providing a practical work area for writing, computer use and light craft tasks. The mat protects desktop surfaces from scratches, spills and heat, and features a non-slip backing to keep it in place on most table materials. It rolls up for compact storage and is simple to wipe clean, making it suitable for home offices, study desks and meeting rooms.

Advantages

The reversible design gives two visual options in one product, extending usability and matching different room styles or tasks. Flexible leatherette provides a smooth, durable writing surface while remaining soft enough to roll for storage. A non-slip underside reduces movement during mouse use or writing, and the material resists common spills and can be wiped clean quickly. The large 1200 x 600 mm coverage creates a dedicated work area that helps protect furniture from heat, liquids and surface abrasion.

Suitable for

• Home office desks and remote workstations
• Study desks for students and writing tasks
• Conference and meeting tables to protect surfaces during events
• Computer setups where a smooth mouse surface and desk protection are needed
• Light craft or drawing activities that require a clean, stable work area

When it may not be suitable

The mat is intended as a desktop protector and work surface rather than a heavy-duty industrial mat; it is not suitable for heavy mechanical or high-temperature applications where specialised heat shields are required. Extremely rough or sharp objects may eventually damage the leatherette surface if used directly on the mat without additional protection.

Key specifications

• Material: flexible leatherette surface with non-slip backing
• Colour: reversible – grey on one side, white on the other
• Overall dimensions: approximately 1200 x 600 mm
• Surface finish: smooth writing and mouse-friendly texture
• Storage: rolls up for compact storage
• Cleaning: wipe-clean surface for easy maintenance

How to use

Unroll the desk mat and position it on a clean, flat tabletop with the chosen colour facing up. Smooth out any minor curvature from storage by applying light pressure with your hands or leaving the mat flat for a few hours. Use the grey or white side depending on the visual contrast required for your tasks. Clean spills or dirt with a damp cloth and mild detergent when necessary; avoid abrasive cleaners. Roll the mat for storage when not in use.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure your desk to ensure the 1200 x 600 mm dimensions suit your workspace
• Decide which colour side (grey or white) best fits your room and work needs
• Consider whether a soft leatherette surface meets your durability needs for heavy or sharp tools
• Check that the non-slip backing performs well on your desk material

Usage recommendations

For everyday computer and writing tasks, place the mat centrally under your keyboard and mouse to benefit from the smooth surface and non-slip backing. Flip sides to refresh the look or reduce visible wear. Wipe spills quickly with a damp cloth to maintain the leatherette finish and avoid prolonged exposure to direct heat sources.
