is this mat durable enough for be used on a work bench

I don't think so - it is foam and would be ruined by cutting, sanding or any sharp tool.

I don't think it would hold up under workbench activity. It's about 1/4 inch thick but has a spongy layer between the surfaces. so it feels a little soft rather than tough. I think I recall a reviewer saying it got caught on something and ripped--which seems possible to me. There are indentations where the treadmill sits on it and squishes it down. One surface is crinkly and one is smooth. I'm not sure which is really supposed to be the top surface, but I feel like I might be able to force my fingernail through either one. (Could be wrong, but I don't want to try it!)

Hi, I'm pretty sure that it could be used on a work bench, but just remember it's kind of thick, and I'm not sure if it ever meant for that purpose.

if it holds my heavy treadmill with no problems, i'm sure it would work on a work bench.

Yes this mat is thick enough that it will not bunch up during intense work on it.

I use it on the workbench... It's not very thick at all and about about as thick as the standard blue ones I see everywhere. I wouldn't use it as a floor mat, but that's just me...

I never thought about that but it is pretty durable. As long as it's a clean smooth surface it should do well. I would also recommend that it not be in an area where is would get wet.

Yes it can. I am pleased with the quality and flexibility the mat offers! A great buy

It seems to be strong enough to handle a heavy traffic area. I'm not sure how much the sunlight would affect the mat color in the long run. So, other than that I'd say it's good for any area. I have machine-washed my doormat twice since I got it, I left it out to airdry and it's just as new. Definately, a well made product.

it is definitely not. You want thicker plastic for softer surfaces. Also make sure that the size of the mat is large enough for you. This mat is pretty small.

I've owned this bath mat for several years & it's in as good a condition today as the day I got it. So, I'd say that this bath mat is well made & about as durable a bath mat as you'll ever run across.

We have it inside so can't answer for sure. Looks durable enough, but have not tested outside use.

Owned for six months and still working. Has been outdoors through rain and shine. So yes, I would say durable.

I think this mat would be excellent for kneeling on a hard surface such as a concrete floor. However, I would want some information about the mat's resistance to chemicals such as gasoline and oil.

This is a nice thick material that is going to hold up for much longer than the other mats. Ours still looks like new and has no wear after 3 months of use and dragging the high chair back and forth over it. I anticipate that I will still be pulling out this mat when we are doing arts and crafts in later years

Yes it seems to be durable. It is a thick quality plastic. You will need to trim the body, it comes pressed with area that must be trimmed.

The mat is big, firm, and heavy enough to use outdoors but it might not be as stable on grass as it is on concrete. I don't know if it can be left out in wet weather without suffering water damage.

It's pretty thin, but the top is crinkled, so less slippery than carpet. Your weight would push whatever touches the floor down into the mat--so it might actually be worth a try.

I've been using this bench in my home gym training clients on it 6 days a week for the last 6 months and it's held up for me no problem. I've never experienced it being wobbly or flimsy

As long as you plan it for more like office use I would say it would be durable enough, it most definitely isn't the nicest, the "wooden sides" started to break right when I pulled it out of the box, so if looks arent a huge deal to you, then it's cheap and does the job.
