How to Clean Your Mad Mat: A Simple Guide to a Squeaky-Clean Outdoor Rug

If you’ve ever struggled to clean a heavy, soggy outdoor rug, you’ll love how easy it is to care for your Mad Mat. These eco-friendly mats are made from 100% recycled polypropylene plastic, which means they’re durable, water-resistant, and practically self-cleaning.

Here’s how to keep your Mad Mat looking as good as the day you bought it - no stress, no scrubbing, no soaking.

Shake It Off!

The unique flat-woven fibers of Mad Mats don’t trap dirt or debris.
Instead, everything sits right on the surface, making it easy to shake it off or sweep it away.

Perfect for patios, porches, and poolside spots that see a lot of foot traffic (and the occasional muddy paw).

Grab the Hose

Mad Mats don’t hold water so a quick rinse with the hose is all it takes for most spills or messes. Because the fibers repel moisture, your mat will dry fast and stay fresh without that damp smell that other outdoor rugs get.

💡 Pro tip: Lay the mat flat on your deck or railing for a few minutes after rinsing. It’ll air dry in no time.

Mop It Up (For Bigger Messes)

For the extra-tough stuff (think spilled drinks, pollen buildup, or post-party cleanup) just grab a mop and a mild detergent.

A quick once-over will freshen things up instantly, keeping colors bright and your pattern crisp. Your Mad Mat will keep looking vibrant season after season.
