Prevent wet footprints on your floor with an indoor absorber mat
An absorber mat effectively absorbs moisture from your shoe soles, ensuring you step inside with dry shoes. If you prefer to avoid wet footprints on your clean floor, an indoor absorber mat is a must-have!
Is an indoor absorber mat a valuable addition?
It’s clear that an absorber mat is a valuable addition to your home. An indoor absorber mat helps keep your floors clean by absorbing significant amounts of moisture through its fibers. Many indoor mats are absorber mats.
The counterpart to the absorber mat is the dirt trapper mat, which has a coarser texture and a scraping function to remove dirt. Most outdoor mats are dirt trapper mats, but you can also use them indoors. Likewise, an absorber mat can retain some dirt, and a dirt trapper mat can wipe away a bit of moisture.

An absorber mat that always fits
A perfect indoor absorber mat meets all your needs—it’s a custom-made absorber mat. You choose the dimensions and color of the mat to ensure it fits perfectly by your front or back door. Would you prefer a dark gray absorber mat? Or maybe a blue one to match your blue door? One thing is certain: an indoor absorber mat completes your entryway.
Placement of the absorber mat
Your doormat can be placed by the front or back door, in the hallway, or in the kitchen. It can also lie directly on the floor or be recessed. By recessed, we mean, for example, on a crawlspace hatch. If the mat is recessed, it’s important that the dimensions are correct. You can use an underlay mat to ensure the absorber mat sits flush with the floor.
If the absorber mat lies directly on the floor, you might prefer a mat with a border, which gives it a bit more structure.
Do you have a PVC or resin floor? Take note, as not all mats are suitable for these types of floors. In such cases, choose a mat that doesn’t contain plasticizers harmful to your floor. Opt for a dirt trapper mat with a backing made of 100% nitrile, which is safe for use on synthetic flooring.

Absorber mat for indoors and outdoors…?
An indoor absorber mat combined with an outdoor dirt trapper mat makes for a perfect duo. Together, they ensure you step inside with clean and dry shoes. Outdoors, you could opt for a spaghetti mat or a brush mat. The coarse texture of these mats effectively scrapes dirt off your shoe soles. Any dirt they collect can be easily rinsed away with water, and they’re designed to withstand all kinds of weather conditions.
If your outdoor mat is well-protected under a covered area, you might also consider a coir mat. Want to know more about the best absorber mat or one for your hallway? Read more here!
