Giving Back – More Than Just a Mat

At Mats By Design, we’ve always believed our products should do more than just look good at your campsite — they should mean something too.

That’s why we’re proud to give back in a way that feels close to home.

With every Crush mat sold online, we donate $10 to the Mon Repos Turtle Centre, supporting vital turtle conservation efforts right here in Australia.


Why Mon Repos?

Mon Repos is one of the most important turtle nesting sites in the South Pacific. Each year, thousands of turtles return to these beaches to lay their eggs — continuing a cycle that has been happening for generations.

But like so much of our natural world, these incredible animals face increasing challenges. Conservation programs play a critical role in protecting nesting areas, supporting hatchlings, and ensuring these species continue to thrive.

By supporting Mon Repos, we’re contributing to real, on-the-ground efforts that make a difference.

Why “Crush”?

Our Crush mat was designed with an under the sea / turtle theme, so it felt only right that it gives back to the very environment that inspired it.

Every time you choose a Crush mat, you’re not just setting up your campsite — you’re helping support the protection of marine life.


Small Choice, Real Impact

We know a single purchase might feel small — but together, it adds up.

Every mat sold helps contribute to:

  • Protecting turtle nesting habitats
  • Supporting conservation programs
  • Raising awareness of Australia’s unique wildlife

It’s a simple way for us, and our customers, to give back while doing what we already love — getting outdoors.
