A sleeping carrimat is a type of lightweight hiking mat made of synthetic materials that have thermal insulation properties. The most popular type of sleeping mats are rolled models, but recently folded sleeping mats, composed of rectangular-shaped segments, have become increasingly popular. Hiking carrimats are useful in a variety of situations, both on expeditions and at home as an emergency sleeping place.
Sleeping mats are most often made from a combination of several materials, including: polyurethane foam, polyethylene foam and EVA, which together provide effective insulation from the ground. One of the distinctive features of these products is their light weight, which makes them ideal for people who travel long distances on foot. This is especially important when traveling with a backpack, since the weight of the karimats does not cause any additional burden. What's more, individual models are equipped with compression straps that help reduce the size of the karimata by compressing the material. With this solution, the karimata takes up less space and is easier to pack and transport. Some of the karimats are equipped with aluminum coatings that protect the user from moisture and heat loss. Karimats are also non-slip, which provides stability while sleeping. Besides, thanks to the aluminum coating, the carrimats are easy to keep clean. In addition to standard features, some models of karimats can be equipped with additional functionality. One example is an elastic band with a Fastex buckle, which makes it possible to attach the karimata to the user's body. We also offer military-grade carrimats, which are characterized by high resistance to damage such as abrasions and tears.
MILITARY.EU offers sleeping mats from many manufacturers, including but not limited to: BCB, Bushmen, Meteor, MFH, Mil-Tec and M-Tac. The offered karimats come in many thicknesses, but this feature does not significantly affect their weight. They are very resilient and do not lose their shape even after repeated use.
