The Acupro Acumat® Narrow Sensory Walkway is a durable, washable tactile sensory mat designed to encourage movement, sensory exploration, body awareness and active participation in education, therapy, home and community environments.

Its narrow 31cm width makes this version particularly useful for group sensory activities, allowing multiple people to walk over the walkway as part of a shared sensory pathway or movement experience. Rather than requiring each participant to use a separate sensory mat, the long, continuous surface provides an opportunity for several walkers to move along the same tactile pathway.

The Acupro Acumat® Narrow Sensory Walkway measures 173cm long x 31cm wide x 2.5cm high and features a high-density, three-layer EVA foam construction with 1,120 Acu-Cones. The raised textured surface provides pronounced tactile stimulation underfoot, creating an active sensory experience as users walk across the mat.

The walkway can be incorporated into sensory pathways, gross motor circuits, movement stations and inclusive group activities. Educators, therapists and support workers can encourage users to walk across the surface at their own pace or incorporate it into structured movement activities.

For occupational therapists and allied health professionals, the Acupro Acumat® Narrow Sensory Walkway can provide opportunities to incorporate tactile and sensory-motor experiences into therapy and functional activities. It can be used alongside other movement and sensory resources to encourage exploration of tactile feedback, body awareness, balance and coordination.

In schools and early learning environments, the narrow format is especially practical for shared sensory pathways. Several participants can engage with the walkway as part of a group activity, encouraging movement, turn-taking, observation and social participation.

The walkway can also be incorporated into indoor movement circuits where users progress from one sensory surface or activity to another. Its continuous design allows the sensory experience to become part of a broader movement routine rather than a standalone activity.

The washable construction makes the Acupro Acumat® Narrow Sensory Walkway practical for shared environments where equipment is used regularly. When not in use, it can be rolled for more compact storage, with a rolled diameter of approximately 23cm.

The walkway can also be used in alternative applications where appropriate. It may be positioned against a suitable wall to provide tactile stimulation when securely mounted, offering another way to incorporate the product into a sensory environment.

For individual activities, the walkway can also be cut into smaller sections where appropriate, allowing the tactile surface to be incorporated into selected workstations or activity areas.

The Acupro Acumat® Narrow Sensory Walkway is an adaptable sensory resource for organisations looking to create opportunities for group participation, tactile exploration, purposeful movement and sensory-rich learning.

Ideal For

Occupational Therapists and Allied Health Professionals

Useful for incorporating tactile and sensory-motor experiences into structured activities involving movement, body awareness, coordination and balance.

Schools and Education Settings

Particularly useful for group sensory activities, sensory pathways, gross motor circuits, movement stations and inclusive classroom programs.

Early Learning Centres

The narrow continuous format allows children to participate together in supervised movement and sensory activities, encouraging group engagement and shared exploration.

NDIS Participants

May be suitable where sensory equipment is directly related to an individual's functional goals, participation, sensory needs or support requirements. NDIS funding eligibility depends on the participant's individual plan and current NDIS guidelines.

Sensory Rooms and Regulation Spaces

Can be incorporated into sensory pathways and movement areas to provide an additional tactile surface.

Home Care

May be suitable for supervised sensory and movement activities in homes with sufficient space for safe use.

Aged Care

May be incorporated into appropriately supervised tactile or movement activities where the individual's mobility, balance, sensory preferences and physical capabilities have been considered.

Community and Inclusive Spaces

Useful for shared sensory environments where multiple participants can engage with a tactile movement surface as part of an inclusive activity.
