About Bagby
Shipping & Returns
Bagby MAT is a desk pad mindfully designed to help you increase your focus and productivity and help you work distraction-free. It features a non-slip back made of cork, a soft and cushioned front with an additional special pocket to hide your phone while working.
How to use it
Your MAT works the moment it is out of the box. Nothing to set up, nothing to charge, no app.
- Lay the mat on your desk, cork side down. The non-slip backing keeps it where you put it.
- Slide your phone into the pocket on the front.
- Work.
Your phone is still within reach when you need it. It is just no longer in your eyeline.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is hiding my phone different from just turning it face down?
A face-down phone is still in your peripheral vision, and still lights up and vibrates
where you can see it. The MAT's pocket removes it from view entirely. The distinction sounds
small and is the entire mechanism — attention follows what is visible.

Can I still hear calls and notifications?
Yes. The pocket is fabric, not a shielded pouch — it hides the phone, it does not block
its signal. If you want to stop notifications reaching you, use your phone's own focus or
do-not-disturb mode alongside the MAT.

Does the desk pad reduce EMF exposure?
Only through distance. Moving a phone off your lap or out of your pocket and onto the
desk in front of you puts space between the device and your body, which lowers exposure. The
MAT is a focus tool, not a shielding product, and it is not lab-tested for attenuation.

Will it slip on my desk?
The underside is cork, which grips most desk surfaces without adhesive. It is designed to
stay where you put it through normal typing and mousing.
