Catch the moisture in your doorstep when you put a water-absorbing doormat at each of your house’s entry doors. Doormats that are designed to soak up liquid can also help save you the additional effort and time it takes to mop wet, dirty flooring that result from monitoring in snow, ice, dust and rain.

Hug a Rug

If you’re searching for eco-friendly door rugs that can also soak up moisture, then look at a carpet with fibers that combine recycled cotton using microfiber. Some “green” rugs extend the ecological appeal using a base that’s created from recycled drink bottles and tops. Even though environmentally friendly doormats use salvaged materials, they’re designed using a functional purpose — to absorb as much as four times their own weight in moisture without allowing any liquid to flow on the floor.

Roughing It

When you want a big, absorbent door carpet to handle your family’s wet shoes and shoes, then an oversize doormat may fulfill your needs. Large door rugs are available with super-absorbent drying electricity and come in accommodating sizes, like 16 inches wide by 32 inches long. Many of these rugs can consume up to four times their weight in water and radiate the moisture outward from the point of contact to keep floors clean by spreading the fluid across the carpeting.
