How to Calculate Bathroom Mat Size

1

Calculate Mat Length

Mat Length = Bathroom Length × 0.25

Example: If your bathroom length is 240 cm: 240 × 0.25 = 60 cm. This is the recommended mat length.

2

Calculate Mat Width

Mat Width = Bathroom Width × 0.3

Example: If your bathroom width is 180 cm: 180 × 0.3 = 54 cm. This value may be rounded to the nearest standard size (50–55 cm).

3

Calculate Clearance

Clearance = Bathroom Width × 0.1

Example: For a width of 180 cm: 180 × 0.1 = 18 cm. Leave approximately 15–20 cm of space between the mat and fixtures.
