We do not usually recommend PVC-backed red coir matting for outdoor use. In situations where it is likely to get very wet, the PVC backing prevents the water from running away. Normal indoor use where the mat becomes wet from shoes and umbrellas, etc., is absolutely fine and is what this matting is designed for, but we do not recommend it being left outside to the elements. This version of PVC-backed matting is in red, with the entire Coir Fibres in that colour.
Characteristics of Coir
Hardwearing and absorbent, the red coir also proves itself to be resilient in maintaining its structure and functionality over time. Its natural fibres are adept at capturing and retaining dirt and moisture, offering a sturdy barrier against the outdoor elements. Moreover, this coloured coir matting is particularly excellent for application in mat wells.
Easy Installation
We stock red coir matting that can be effortlessly trimmed to your desired size and shape using a sharp knife, making it particularly suitable for utilisation within a mat well. Should your mat well be deeper than 17mm thick, introduce a plywood sheet of appropriate thickness into the well before placing it atop it.
Safety
It is optimal for the pinnacle of the bristles to sit flush with the floor, thereby minimising the potential risk of tripping. Ensuring a flat surface enhances safety, particularly in high-traffic areas where the risk is prevalent.
This vibrant PVC-backed red coir doormat not only brings a splash of colour to your entryway but also effectively safeguards your interior spaces from dirt and moisture, prolonging the longevity and aesthetics of your indoor flooring.

Let's answer some of your frequently asked questions.
Is Coir Matting the Same as Coconut Matting?
Coir matting, also known as coconut matting, is a type of mat made from natural coconut fibres rather than synthetic fibres. Coir mats are a natural product and are one of the most traditional types of floor mats available.
How Long Do Coir Mats Last?
A well-maintained coir mat in a standard domestic setting can last a long time. The natural robustness of coir fibres offers resistance to wear and ensures that the mat retains its effective brushing properties over time. However, constant exposure to elements like direct sunlight or heavy rain might curtail its lifespan. Regular cleaning and periodic mat rotation to ensure even wear is vital to maximising its longevity, enabling it to be a steadfast barrier against dirt for numerous years.
How To Clean a Coir Mat?
Maintaining the aesthetic and functionality of a coir mat involves a simple yet attentive cleaning regime. Begin to remove dried dirt and debris with a vigorous shake. For a more thorough cleanse, employ a stiff-bristle brush, gently brushing in the direction of the fibres to expel embedded dirt without causing damage. If a spill occurs, promptly blot with a clean cloth, avoiding rubbing to prevent the liquid from spreading or seeping deeper into the fibres. Remember, allowing your coir mat to dry after any wet cleaning is essential thoroughly; placing it in a well-ventilated area or under direct sunlight to prevent mould and maintain its durability and appearance.
