Sleeping Mat Pinguin Matrix 38 NX orange

Pinguin Matrix 38 NX sleeping mat – comfort and thermal performance in all conditions

Pinguin Matrix 38 NX is a versatile self‑inflating sleeping mat for those who want to combine comfort, excellent thermal insulation, and reasonable weight. Thanks to its dimensions of 198x62x3.8cm, it offers comfortable sleeping space for most users from spring to autumn. The mat belongs to the Matrix product line, designed to offer an excellent balance between packed volume, weight, and thermal comfort.

Durable construction, materials, and DHC core structure

The top and bottom of the mat are made of brushed polyester with TPU lamination, which ensures water resistance, high mechanical durability, and improved anti-slip properties. 

Inside the mat there is a core with a special DHC (Double Horizontal Core) structure. This means that the foam is horizontally perforated in two layers.

Self‑inflating system and DLF – Dual layer flat valve

The mat uses a self‑inflating system – after opening the valve, the internal foam starts to expand and draw in air, which significantly simplifies bed preparation after a demanding day. 

The key element is the modern DLF – Dual layer flat valve. It is a flat two‑layer valve that minimises the risk of damage while allowing fast inflation and deflation. One layer of the valve is used for inflation and prevents air from escaping during topping up, the other allows the flow to be fully opened when packing, so deflation is quick and efficient. Thanks to its flat design, the valve does not protrude from the profile of the mat and does not get in the way while sleeping.
