The Outsider Doormat

The Outsider has been tested for CA65 (the most stringent state standards in the US) and confirmed to have no phthalates, heavy metals or formaldehyde. The insert face is CRI Green Label Plus certified. The insert backing, made of ECO+ rubber, is recycled and recyclable and does not contain harmful carcinogenic substances. Quality materials are a core principle of the Porte + Hall ethos and we will continually work to improve and introduce products that further promote these values.

The wood rails and powder coated aluminum corners require no maintenance except an occasional wipe down with a soft cloth, and if needed a cleaning with dish soap (we like using original Dawn dish soap) and water. If the product is directly exposed to weather (no overhang or covering at all), the wood rail color may gradually fade due to extreme exposure to sunlight over an extended period of time.
