A2 Cutting Mat ideal for Archival Dust Jacket Sleeving

The A2 cutting mat recommended by soccerbooks for their Archival Dust Jacket Protection System is a professional-grade cutting surface measuring 60cm x 45cm (approximately 23.6" x 17.7"). This particular model stands out for several key features that make it especially suitable for book preservation work.
The mat's standout feature is its specialised  non-slip surface, which provides stability during precise cutting tasks. This is particularly important when working with delicate materials like dust jackets and archival papers. The surface includes printed grid lines and marking guides that ensure accurate, straight cuts every time.
What makes this mat particularly suitable for archival work is its latex-free construction, making it safe for use with preservation materials. The self-healing properties mean that when you make cuts, the surface recovers, preventing grooves and channels from forming over time that could affect future cutting accuracy.
Its A2 size provides ample working space for most book jacket sizes while remaining manageable on a desk or work table. The mat protects underlying surfaces from damage while offering a stable platform for cutting paper, card, and other materials used in preservation work.
For those working with the Archival Dust Jacket Protection System, this mat's dimensions and features make it an ideal companion tool, offering the precision and reliability needed for professional-grade preservation work.
