A sheet material comprising a cushioning layer formed of resilient, cushioning material, and a non-absorbent, thermally non-conductive top layer of thermoplastic material formed with apertures which is embedded into the cushioning layer so that the cushioning material extends at least partially into the apertures in the top layer. The coefficient of friction of the top layer of the sheet material can be varied to alter the degree of slip-resistance of the sheet material depending upon the requirements of a particular application. The cushioning material forming the cushioning layer may be moisture-absorbent to help channel away moisture from the top layer, and, in one embodiment, is affixed to a second cushioning layer to form a three-layer sheet material.

A sheet material, comprising: a slip-resistant, non-absorbent and thermally nonconductive first layer formed with a plurality of apertures, said first layer having a first surface; a second layer having cushioning properties and being moisture-absorbent and air pervious, said second layer having a second surface; said slip-resistant first layer being at least partially embedded in said second layer so that said first surface of said slip-resistant first layer extends beneath said second surface of said second layer and a portion of said second layer extends at least partially into said apertures in said slip-resistant first layer; whereby upon contact of moisture with said slip-resistant first layer, said second layer is effective to absorb and wick away the moisture from said first layer so that the slip-resistance of said first layer is substantially maintained in the presence of moisture.
