The mat is effective to -15C, which is enough to handle all most situations in the 4 seasons in the UK and Europe.

Multimat says

Multimat Adventure Superlite Compact 25 Body-Shape Self Inflating Mat Multimat Adventure Range – Technically advanced lightweight and compact – The ultimate in weight reduction.

This range has been designed and manufactured focusing on the specific requirements of competitive racing and adventure sports. Offering the lightest and most compact options using the very latest ultra light materials meeting the highest standards for quality and reliability.

Multimat Adventure Superlite Compact 25 – self-inflating three quarter length mattress.The lightest self-inflating mat in the range – uses quality materials to keep weight to a minimum.

Our Verdict

Self-inflating mats are the most popular choice for backpackers because they provide a good level of comfort and insulation from the ground, in addition they are relatively light and compact when deflated and rolled.

The two superlite mats in the Multimat Adventure range use a slightly lighter weight face material than the others in the range which is how weight is saved – though they are still a robust unit.

By changing the shape of the mat and losing some wasted material the Superlite 25 Short is now one of the lightest self-inflating mats around.

ASTM R-Value:

From 2020, there is a new industry standard for measuring the R-value (level of insulation) of sleeping mats – ASTM F3340-18. This new standard is the sleeping mat equivalent to the EN rating for sleeping bags.

You can now directly compare the R-value of mats rated using the ASTM F3340-18 with confidence that is a fair and accurate comparison between mats. In simple terms, the higher the R-value, the warmer the mat.

In general terms, an R-value below 2.0 is for summer use, 2.0 to 4.0 is for cooler 3 season use and 4.0+ is for winter temperatures. This will be also be dependent on your sleeping bag, how cold you sleep etc. Please contact our customer service team if you need advice on choosing the right mat for your activity.
