Extended Product Information
FAQs
What material is the Nicola Spring door mat made from?
The mat is crafted from natural coir (coconut) fibres for the top surface and has a non-slip PVC backing.
How do I clean the door mat?
To clean, hang the mat outdoors and beat it with a broom handle to remove dirt. You can also brush it with a little water. Lay flat to dry.
Is the mat suitable for indoor use?
Yes, the non-slip backing helps protect interior carpets, but it is primarily designed for outdoor or covered entryway use to effectively trap dirt before it enters the home.
Will the non-slip backing damage my floors?
The PVC backing is designed to provide grip without damaging most floor types. However, it's always recommended to test in an inconspicuous area if you have concerns about your specific flooring.
What are the dimensions of the mat?
Please refer to the product listing for specific dimensions, as sizes may vary.
Can I use this mat in heavy rain?
While the PVC backing traps moisture, it's best used in a covered or sheltered area to prevent oversaturation, which can affect drying time and longevity.
Does the mat have a strong odor?
Natural coir mats may have a slight earthy odor upon first use, which typically dissipates over time.
Troubleshooting
Mat is not lying flat
Ensure the mat is placed on a clean, dry surface. Roll the mat in the opposite direction of the curl and leave it for a few hours, or place heavy objects on the corners.
Excessive fiber shedding
Some initial shedding of coir fibers is normal. Regularly clean the mat as per instructions. Shedding should decrease over time.
Mat is slipping
Check that the floor surface is completely dry and free from dust or debris. Ensure the PVC backing is intact and not damaged.
Design appears faded
The design may fade with prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Consider relocating the mat to a shaded area or using it in a covered entryway.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Simply place the mat on your desired entryway surface. Ensure the area beneath the mat is dry to allow the PVC backing to adhere effectively.
Compatibility: This mat is compatible with most standard doorways and is suitable for use on various hard surfaces. It is recommended for outdoor use or in a covered entryway to prolong its life and maintain the vibrancy of the design.
Care: To clean, take the mat outside and hang it from a sturdy support. Beat it firmly with a broom handle to remove loose dirt and debris. For a deeper clean, brush the mat with a small amount of water. Afterward, lay the mat flat to dry completely before placing it back in position. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the coir fibers and backing.
