Eco-Friendly Outdoor Mat with Free-Draining Design

The WaterHog Drainable Border Mat delivers tough performance with an eco-conscious build—perfect for outdoor entryways exposed to the elements. Featuring the classic WaterHog square pattern, this mat traps dirt and moisture below foot level while allowing water to drain freely through its open-edge border design.

Designed to Stay Clean & Dry
The mat’s bi-level surface construction scrapes dirt and wipes moisture from shoes, preventing it from being tracked indoors. Unlike traditional WaterHog mats, the drainable border has no raised edges, allowing excess water to escape quickly—ideal for rainy climates or uncovered entrances.

Tough on Dirt, Gentle on the Planet
Crafted with solution-dyed PET fabric made from 90%+ recycled plastic bottles, the WaterHog Drainable Border mat is stain-resistant, quick-drying, and fade-proof. Reinforced rubber nubs help prevent pile crushing, extending the mat’s lifespan—even in heavy foot traffic.

Safe, Sustainable, and Reliable
The backing is made from SBR rubber containing 20% post-consumer recycled content from car tires, and is available in both smooth and universal cleated options to suit various floor types. The mat is tested to meet flammability standards and supports safe use in public spaces.
