NickelDesignsShop Welcome Mat

Shedding is a natural characteristic of coir mats, especially when new. While you may notice some loose fibers initially, the durable construction is designed to minimize this as the mat settles into your entryway.

Yes, this mat is designed for outdoor use and features mold-resistant properties. However, for the longest lifespan, we recommend placing it in a covered porch area to protect it from becoming oversaturated.

Maintenance is straightforward. Simply sweep the mat with a stiff broom or give it a good shake to dislodge dirt and debris. Avoid using a hose or power washer, as excessive water can damage the natural fibers.

The thick vinyl backing is designed to grip securely on most standard porch surfaces like concrete, wood, or tile. It is non-slip, but we always suggest testing it on your specific flooring if you have delicate or porous stone surfaces.

The UV-resistant sealant significantly slows the fading process caused by sun exposure. While no natural fiber is completely immune to the sun, this treatment helps the mat maintain its aesthetic appeal much longer than untreated alternatives.
