Naturally harvested coir fibres are hand-woven using traditional looms and then sheared to create a dense pile that helps to trap dirt, and moisture, and clean shoes. Elegant designs are hand stenciled on the doormat using fade-resistant dyes. Heavy coir backing keeps the doormat in place and locks the fibres in to minimize shedding. Coir fibre is naturally mould and mildew-resistant. Handmade from coir fibres, a renewable resource, coir mats are environmentally friendly and made with a minimal carbon footprint. Coir mats are completely biodegradable and compostable. For optimal results, the manufacturer suggests using this doormat in a sheltered area, such as a covered porch, and keeping exposure to extreme moisture and sunlight to a minimum. If the doormats are excessively exposed to the elements, some colour transfer may occur onto natural stone, concrete, or other surfaces and stenciled designs may eventually fade. The texture of the fibres is normal and adds a special character to each individual doormat. During the first few weeks, it is normal for the coir doormat to shed fibres.
