Some chair mats are shipped rolled due to size or for quick economical shipping. Do not store your rolled chair mat after arrival. Upon receipt, begin the unrolling process so your chair mat can be placed on a flat surface.

ES ROBBINS chair mats are made of premium vinyl that becomes more flexible when warm. Cold temperatures make chair mats stiff. For best unrolling results, keep the chair mat in a warm environment (approx. 24 hours) prior to unrolling. Your chair mat must reach room temperature, at least 68° F (20° C) or warmer to unroll properly. Indirect heat sources such as sunlight or a warm room can help your chair mat relax.

Note: You may use a hair dryer as a gentle heat source to warm your chair mat faster. For hair dryer use, direct the warm air into the center core of the rolled chair mat for approximately 15 minutes. Unroll slowly while blowing warm air across the chair mat surface until flat. Follow safety guidelines provided by hair dryer manufacturer.

Once warmed, unroll slowly. You may help flatten your chair mat where needed by placing heavy objects (books, boxes, etc.) on any areas that remain curled. Allow the chair mat to rest and relax naturally to regain its flat shape.

NOTE: The chair mat will continue to relax and may take up to 72 hours to fully flatten. Warm environments help speed up the process. Do not expose the chair mat to extreme heat. High temperatures will damage the chair mat
