- Built to Last: The interlocking clips are surprisingly tough and don't snap during assembly.
- Aesthetic Simplicity: They are purely functional; not designed for front-of-house customer-facing areas.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Ferryman's Inn, a bustling riverside pub in Norwich, was constantly dealing with chipped glassware and damp, messy shelves from glass washing. The high turnover of glasses during peak hours was leading to unnecessary breakages and hygiene concerns.
"We were losing money on replacement glasses every single week, and the shelves always looked a mess. These mats stopped the chipping almost overnight. It's a small change that made our bar operation much smoother and tidier."
Robert Evans – Pub Manager
After lining their main shelving, the pub reduced its glassware replacement costs by over 70% in the first quarter and staff reported a faster, more hygienic drying process.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Give the mats a quick wash with soap and water before their first use.
- Measure your shelf space to plan the most efficient layout.
- Simply align the edges and click the mats together to achieve your desired shape and size.
- Place the connected matting directly onto your clean, dry shelf—no tools or adhesives needed.
Keeping It Going
- For daily cleaning, wipe down with a damp cloth and a food-safe sanitiser.
- For a thorough clean, simply unclip the mats and place them in your commercial dishwasher.
- Periodically check that the interlocking clips are secure, especially if moved often.
- Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as they may scratch the plastic surface.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I cut these mats to fit a specific shape?
A: It's not recommended as it could compromise the material. The interlocking system is designed to let you build custom shapes and sizes without needing to cut them.
Q: Are the mats heat resistant?
A: They are designed for washed glassware from a glasswasher but are not intended for contact with hot pans or equipment directly from an oven.
Q: How tall are the mats once laid on a shelf?
A: They have a very low profile of just 4mm, so they won't significantly raise the height of your glasses.
Q: Will my glasses slide around on these mats?
A: No, the grid surface and plastic material provide a good level of grip, keeping your glassware stable. They work well as a non-slip bar mat Beaumont solution for storage.
Q: How do the mats actually connect to each other?
A: They use a simple, integrated clip-and-slot system. You just line them up and press them together for a secure connection.
Q: Is the black colour likely to fade over time?
A: No, they are made from a durable, colour-fast plastic designed to withstand repeated washing and commercial use without fading.
Q: How many mats do I get in one pack?
A: Each pack contains 10 individual mats, allowing you to cover a substantial area.
Q: Can I use these on the front bar for serving drinks?
A: They are primarily designed for back-bar storage, drying, and preparation areas. For front-bar service, a solid rubber spill mat is often preferred.

Ever tried lining an awkwardly shaped shelf with a standard, one-size-fits-all mat? It never quite works, leaving you with gaps or clumsy overlaps. That’s where the interlocking system on these Beaumont glass mats truly shines. Think of it like professional-grade LEGO for your bar. Each mat has built-in clips and slots, allowing you to securely connect them side-by-side or end-to-end. This means you can create a single, seamless, and stable surface that perfectly covers a long back-bar, an L-shaped corner, or a small under-counter space. It’s a brilliantly simple idea that provides a custom, professional fit for any bar layout, big or small.
