How to clean a Coir Doormat.
Just give your doormat a good shake or vacuum to remove dirt and debris, and use a stiff brush to scrape off any mud. While you may notice some shedding at first, it will reduce over time. Coir Mats are naturally resistant to stains, rot, and mildew, but it's best to avoid exposing them to frequent or direct rain. Excessive moisture can cause the natural colour of the fibers to change due to the tannins they contain.
Can Coir Doormats be used outside?
Because our Coir Mats have a bound backing made from PVC (Natural Latex and Jute), it is not recommended to be used outside where it can easily get wet. The Coir Mats will also darken naturally overtime when exposed to sunlight and similar when wet, the colour and shape will distort from its original colour, quality and shape. It is highly recommended to leave these mats under a dry area such as an overhang to protect it from the elements.
