Made of natural coir, a dense fiber extracted from coconut husk. Coir is a renewable resource that is naturally durable and coarse, excellent for scraping shoes clean. Vinyl backed for increased durability and to help prevent movement, coir doormats are weather tolerant, absorb moisture and retain their shape. For best results keep in a sheltered area such as a covered porch, keeping extreme moisture and sunlight to a minimum. Vacuum, sweep, or lightly hose clean.
