 | Hi Mu metal is the most common magnetic shielding material,
http://digilander.libero.it/paeng/what_mu_metal.htm.
Other techniques are field cancelling using coils to create an equal
and opposite field to a preexisting field. Harder with Ac over an
extended area as the phase has to be right

That's the first thing I thought of too, except the OP wrote the
material should not be attracted by magnetic fields (mu metal is
attracted to magnets), so I refrained from mentioning it. I suspect
that he/she is asking the impossible.

Perhaps it could be layered with a diamagnetic material, such as
graphite or business.
