Production of mouse mats
Have you ever thought about mouse mat production – no of course not – all you have to do is push a button on one end of a machine and out of the other end pop hundreds if not thousands of printed and shaped mouse mats. Well, it’s not quite like that, production of mousemats is very labour intensive and takes place in a number of different stages. Production of standard hard top mouse mats begins with checking the customer’s artwork and making sure that the images will print well. Printing machines can then be programmed to reverse print onto mark resistant PVC. The printed PVC then goes from the print room to the factory floor to be die cut to shape and then it is hand laminated onto a pre cut foam base. And that of course is a very much simplified description of the whole process which really begins with selling the product to a customer. Other styles of mouse mat, such as the armadillo mousemats and aqua mouse mats, will require printing and welding processes. Visiting the mouse mat factory is a real eye opener and it really helps to know what is going on when you have to explain to a customer why lead times for mouse mats are 2/3 weeks from receipt of an order.

New Mouse Mats
Did you know that we can now offer double sided mouse mats? The best selling hard top mouse mat can now be produced with print on each side. The print process is full colour only and the mats are 3mm thick. Armadillo mouse mats, another very popular style, can also be produced with print on both sides. The print does not have to be the same on both sides and for full colour print there is no origination charge. Another new product is the HubPad with 4 USB ports.

Brite-Mat Mouse Mats
The Brite mat mouse mat has been described here before, it is a rigid plastic mat with a patented surface that provides excellent tracking for the mouse. This type of mouse mat is litho printed and graphic reproduction is stunningly good. However, Brite mat mouse mats cannot be custom shaped; it is only produced in rectangular or round format, so for those clients who require a specific size or shape of mouse mat there are a number of options. Standard hard top mousemats, armadillo welded mouse mats and the aqua mat range can be produced with a precision surface which provides very good tracking for optical mice. Graphical reproduction on this surface whether by screen print or 4 colour process is excellent.
