Individual Waterproof Picnic Mat: Random Recycled

The British Blanket Company

£42

New to the Outdoor Collection this summer, the Waterproof Picnic Mat combines our bestselling Random Recycled weave with the practicality of a walking mat. Sized for one person to sit on, it folds neatly to fit in a bag or backpack. Equally suitable for camping or heading to the park - and with its waterproof backing, there'll be no soggy bottoms! Designer's colour notes: Choose this mat only if you enjoy an element of surprise! The photos are examples of past batches, but each new batch is different and colours can't be specified.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as (THE) BLANKET SHOP LTD, number 08404782. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Stated by the company: "Designed with passion in our Bristol studio" Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
