The Cornell Lite collection features a classic slate grey tone with natural striping, delivering the soft, textured look of chunky wool while being crafted entirely from 100% recycled plastic bottles.

When dirty, simply toss your mat into the washing machine on a cold cycle. It comes out looking brand new and nearly dry, ready to go right back to work at your front door, bathroom, or mudroom.

What is the Cornell colourway?
The Cornell colourway is a versatile slate grey base accented with subtle natural striping. It seamlessly complements timber floors, concrete, tiles, and neutral exterior paving.
How do I wash and dry my Cornell Lite mat?
Simply pop the mat into your washing machine on a standard cold wash cycle with gentle detergent. Line dry in the shade. Thanks to its recycled plastic weave, it retains minimal water and dries remarkably fast.
Does this mat really feel like wool if it is made from plastic?
Yes. The recycled fibers are spun into a soft, textured yarn before weaving. The result is a chunky, wool-like feel that is completely comfortable under bare feet.
Can I use this mat outdoors?
Absolutely. The materials are naturally mould and fade resistant, making them ideal for covered outdoor entryways, patios, back doors, and verandahs as well as indoor spaces.

Why Choose
Most outdoor and entry mats force a compromise between harsh industrial rubber or delicate fibers that stain and shed. The Cornell Lite gives you the best of both worlds. It looks and feels like premium natural wool, yet it outperforms synthetic options with total water resistance and machine washability. By choosing this mat, you get an ultra-durable home addition that actively diverts plastic bottles from Australian landfills.
