FAQs
Can I use this mat on underfloor heating?
Yes, the nitrile rubber backing is designed to withstand normal household temperatures and is safe for use with underfloor heating systems.
Will the Victorian Tiles pattern fade?
The mat is color-fast, but like all textiles, excessive exposure to harsh, direct sunlight over many years may lead to minor fading.
Is this mat suitable for outdoor use?
It is best suited for sheltered outdoor areas like covered porches or balconies; however, it is primarily designed as an interior entrance mat.
How do I claim the 5-year guarantee?
Keep your proof of purchase, as the guarantee covers manufacturing defects. You can contact the manufacturer's support team with your order details.
Can I cut the mat to fit a smaller space?
It is not recommended to cut the mat, as doing so may compromise the edges and the structural integrity of the rubber backing.
Does it contain latex?
No, the mat features a nitrile rubber backing, which is a synthetic rubber and is free from natural latex.
Troubleshooting
Mat slips on smooth flooring
Ensure the floor is completely clean and dry before placing the mat down, as dust or wax can interfere with the grip of the nitrile backing.
Mat is losing its absorbency
This is often caused by a buildup of fabric softener residue. Wash the mat in a standard cycle without fabric softener to restore its original performance.
Visible dirt accumulation
Give the mat a vigorous shake outside or use a high-powered vacuum to remove deep-seated particles from the cotton pile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your mat, ensure the floor surface is clean and dry before laying it down to maximize the efficacy of the nitrile rubber backing. The mat is compatible with most interior floor types, including stone, wood, and carpet.
Care instructions are straightforward:
- Routine Cleaning: Vacuum or shake the mat regularly to remove loose debris.
- Machine Washing: Wash at 40°C using a gentle detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the absorbent quality of the cotton fibers.
- Drying: The mat is tumble-dry safe, which helps fluff the cotton fibers back up, maintaining their high-absorbency performance. If air drying, ensure the mat is completely dry before returning it to its spot.
