The perfect addition for developing film at home!

Who hasn't experienced this: while developing film, a film tube leaks, or the lid of a developing tank is no longer completely sealed, leaving the table covered in spills and liquids dripping onto the floor? The Ars-Imago Lab Mat is the solution. This mat, made of durable silicone, protects your table and, with a rim, prevents splashes from running off.

It is a perfect addition to the Lab-Box developing tank. The mat is not only waterproof but also non-slip. This makes continuously turning the Lab-Box's agitation knob or crank much more comfortable.

Size: approx. 31 x 26.5 cm
Protective rim: 0.5 cm high
Material: Orange silicone

Amelia ★★★★★

I’ve spilled fixer twice already and the mat soaked it all up without a single drop reaching my counter—the rubberized top is a lifesaver. Setup was just unroll and go, and cleanup took ten seconds with a rinse.

Isabella Q. ★★★★★

That sticky, chemical smell of spilled developer used to hang in the air for days, but this mat catches every drip before it hits the counter. The surface wipes clean in seconds, and the edges don't curl up even when it's soaked.

Charlotte ★★★★★

My darkroom sessions used to be a game of chance with spills, but this mat finally gives me peace of mind while I load film reels. It's wide enough to cover my whole work area and wipes clean in seconds after a fixer splash.
