The Best Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Doormats
In need of a new welcome mat? We’ve compiled a list of our favorite eco-friendly and sustainable doormats to add a little charm before entering your home.
WHAT MAKES A Doormat sustainable?
Quality is essential for a sustainable doormat because they see a lot of foot traffic. Therefore, you want a doormat that can withstand all the walking, dirt, and outdoor elements for many years. Another thing to look for is the type of material used. Most doormats in this post are made from natural fibers like coir or jute and recycled materials like rubber, rope, and more.

1. Half Moon Jute Doormat
Brand | Casa Amarosa
Price | $83
Materials | Jute
Handmade by master weavers in India, this rug brings a touch of natural texture to your home. Each doormat is hand-spun, then wound and stitched in a spiral form with sustainably harvested jute. The durable jute weave is great for heavy foot traffic.
2. Rope Doormat
Brand | Wharf Wrap (Etsy)
Price | $150
Materials | 100% Reclaimed Lobster Rope
We have never seen reclaimed lobster rope used before, but it's pretty interesting. They take varying lengths of 3/8" rope and bond them into a single strand (reducing their scrap waste), then neatly weave them to create a truly unique rug. They are super durable and work well either indoors or outdoors. Plus, they are easy to clean with a hose or power washer.
3. Rainbow Woven DoorMat
Brand | GrannyBeauty (Etsy)
Price | $34-78
Materials | Recycled Cloth, Cotton, Second-Hand Clothing
We always love to find ways to reuse clothes, and for those with no hope of being rescued, how cool would it be to make something useful for your home, like a doormat? GrannyBeauty is taking old clothes and creating new things to decorate your home colorfully. They have lots of different colors to choose from!
4. Tossed Dash Doormat
Brand | West Elm
Price | $30
Materials | Natural Coir (Coconut)
We love the look of semi-circle doormats. Unfortunately, you don’t see them near as often! Artisans in India handcrafted this particular one from West Elm. As you may know, West Elm has been working a lot with Fair Trade partners over the years, and it’s great to see a more conventional store have mindfully and ethically-made products.
5. Upcycled Flip-Flop Mat
Brand | Ten Thousand Villages
Price | $44.99
Materials | Recycled Rubber Flip Flops, Metal Wire
This one is just too cool! We love when brands can reuse someone else’s trash to create something beautiful and useful. This particular doormat is ethically made by Saffy (Social Action for Filipino Youth), based in the Philippines. Artisans from this group benefit from educational seminars, vocational training, and financial and medical assistance.
6. Camper Doormat
Brand | Flagology (Etsy)
Price | $36.99
Materials | Recycled Rubber
Flagology uses strong recycled rubber (weighing only three pounds) to make one of the market's toughest, most durable doormats. They are designed for indoor and outdoor in high-traffic areas. The heavy-duty recycled rubber is non-slip, and all the vibrant colors are hand-printed in North Carolina. - note that the Scroll Tray is sold separately - find it here.
7. Stripe Natural Fiber Doormat
Brand | Pottery Barn
Price | $39
Materials | Jute
This natural & classic doormat is handwoven of 100% Jute in India and celebrates and preserves artisan handcraft traditions. Like West Elm, we love seeing more prominent brands use eco-friendly materials and ethical production. Besides the white, you can also find this doormat in black stripes!
