However, tatami mats and mats that have been used in the past have the following problems. The tatami mat has a thickness of about 60 to 70 mm, and a wooden insulation board is used for the tatami floor. For this reason, it has a size of 5 to 6 kg in a half-tatami size, which is inconvenient for installation and storage. In addition, a space is required to accommodate the large thickness, and a condominium or the like in which the accommodation space is limited has a problem in a storage space. On the other hand, mats are thin and light, and do not have the above-mentioned disadvantages of tatami mats. However, there is a drawback that the foot is hurt when used on a flooring due to lack of cushioning property. Further, since there is no shape-retaining property, the periphery is rolled up or wrinkles are generated, the shape is collapsed, and the appearance is impaired. Furthermore, it was slippery and dangerous.
