How to choose the best absorber mat

Beste droogloopmat

In autumn and winter, your doormat typically has to endure more wear and tear than in spring and summer. With increased rainfall, wet shoe soles become the norm rather than the exception. A good absorber mat helps prevent wet footprints in your home. But what is the best absorber mat? We’ll tell you everything you need to know about choosing the best absorber mat!

Criteria for the best absorber mat

An absorber mat is specifically designed to effectively dry your shoe soles. The absorbent fibers of the mat are key to this function. Mats with cotton fibers absorb and retain moisture exceptionally well. However, dirt trapper mats made with polyamide or polyester fibers are also excellent at holding moisture.

For example, our Aquastop doormat is made from 100% cotton, while our Aquapro mats are crafted from 100% polyamide fibers. The Aquapro not only dries your shoe soles effectively but also cleans them thoroughly.

To be the best absorber mat for you, the doormat must obviously be of high quality. Additionally, it needs to fit perfectly on the floor or in a recessed area.

Best custom-made absorber mat

A custom-made absorber mat fits perfectly! It’s neither too large nor too small and completes your entryway. You choose the dimensions and color of the mat. It stays firmly in place, doesn’t slide, and doesn’t curl up. Everyone can wipe their feet with confidence—that’s what makes it the best custom-made absorber mat.

Best absorber mat for a synthetic floor

Will your doormat lie directly on the floor, and do you have a PVC or resin floor? Not all absorber mats are suitable for such surfaces. Many doormats contain plasticizers in their backing, which can cause a chemical reaction when used with synthetic floors. This reaction can lead to discoloration.

The best absorber mat for a synthetic floor is one with a backing free of harmful plasticizers. These mats typically have a backing made from 100% nitrile, making them safe to use on synthetic floors.

The best absorber mat for a crawlspace hatch

Is your absorber mat going to be placed on a crawlspace hatch? In this case, the mat will be recessed. The best absorber mat for this situation is one that fits perfectly on the hatch—not just in length and width but also in height. If the thickness of the mat doesn’t completely fill the gap between the floor and the hatch, you can use a rubber underlay mat. These mats are available in various thicknesses and ensure the mat lies flush with the floor.

A hallway absorber mat is often recessed, so when ordering a new one, always consider the mat’s thickness to ensure a perfect fit.

The best absorber mat for you offers only benefits

An absorber mat is truly indispensable. The best custom-made absorber mat is one that makes you happy. Beyond its excellent moisture-absorbing capabilities, an absorber mat comes with several additional benefits:

  • Reduces the risk of slipping on a slick floor.
  • Protects your floor from scratches and wear.
  • Removes dirt and dust. While absorber mats are primarily designed to absorb moisture, they also trap dirt and dust from shoes.
  • Improves air quality by capturing dust and dirt, reducing airborne particles.

When do I need a non-slip undermat?

The anti-slip undermat can be used when the mat is placed on a smooth surface. The mat has a standard size of 60x60cm, but can easily be cut to the desired size with scissors.

If the mat is larger than 60x60cm, multiple anti-slip undermats can be used.

Rubber filling mat

Is your mat going to be in a recess or is there a crawl hatch that is deeper than the floor? Then our rubber filling mat offers a solution. These filling mats are made of recycled granulate rubber, which is very sustainable!

Need an undermat?

Measure the depth and dimensions of the recess to determine the height to be filled. It is possible to stack multiple filler mats on top of each other to get the right height.

The Dimension anthracite outdoor mat is a custom-made outdoor entrance mat made of yarns that effectively remove dirt from your soles. The advantage of these yarns is that they do not absorb moisture, so the mat can be left outside in all weather conditions. The mat has a thickness of 11 mm and gives a chic look. Because there is no so-called nap in the mat, the length and width can be turned as desired.

When do you need a cutting knife?

Use the Mattigo cutting knife to cut out the corner of the threshold or door frame from the mat so that the mat fits perfectly in the space where you have designed it.
