Product Information

However, traditional floor mats made from cotton or synthetics, have limited water absorption, so you may leave water stains on your bathroom floor after some steps. Alternatively, you can wash it under running water every two weeks to remove accumulated dust or residue. Furthermore, a diatomaceous earth bath mat is non-slip due to its brushed texture which gives it a natural grip. It is no secret that washing machine use affects the environment in numerous ways due to water and energy wastage, chemical pollution, and increased carbon footprint. However, if you sand your diatomite mat too often, and too deeply, you’ll wear it down, and effectively limit its absorption capacity.

Therefore, it will not slip on the ground when stepped on, protecting you and your family from falls that can easily occur with traditional mats. For stubborn stains, using a fine grit sandpaper is recommended for renewing the surface. For deeper and more difficult stains, you can usually use hydrogen peroxide, and in some cases, bleach to penetrate deeper into the stone itself. Diatomite, also called diatomaceous earth, is a naturally occurring, soft, fossilised diatom that can be crumbled into a white powder.

Diatomaceous bath mat cleaning is relatively straightforward since you can wipe it down with a wet cloth or sponge. Therefore, you won't have to wash it frequently in a washing machine saving you time and money. I like walking barefoot in my house, and I thoroughly dislike walking on hard, unforgiving tile floors. And because these mats are generally not very expensive, it shouldn’t be too much of a financial burden if you choose to go that route.

Now we do realise that stone immediately makes everyone think of some serious weight, but in reality – it’s surprisingly light. The bath mat itself weighs approximately 2kg. It’s one of the many incredible properties of diatomite since it’s composed of fossilized remains of single-celled algae. You can easily move these bath mats around whenever you need to. Therefore, it is perhaps no surprise that diatomaceous earth stone bath mats exist to absorb moisture in today's bathrooms. As you might expect, stone bath mats are typically left in their all-natural color state, so you’ll find them ranging in colors from white to dark grey. These muted tones give a modern, spa-like feel to any room, and tend to blend inconspicuously with a variety of decor styles and color schemes, from traditional to modern, boho-style bathrooms, and more. If you have a large or uniquely laid out space that you want to cover, the Dorai Large Bath Stone is the customizable solution you need. This bath mat is over double the size of many others on our list, allowing it to cover a similar amount of space to a bath rug. Even better, it can be laid out in a variety of different configurations, since it’s actually four individual stones. Lay it out in a traditional rectangle shape, or lay the tiles side by side to make a slim, long layout. Alternatively, you could also lay it out in an L-shape or separate the tiles to cover two different areas altogether, making this the most customizable choice on the list.Unlike most other stone bath mats, this one can be machine washed (for smaller messes or stains, you can just clean it with a damp cloth). It’s lightweight enough to easily move around the house or hang up to get out of the way. This model does provide a somewhat less luxurious feel than some other more solidly constructed mats, however. It’s also less durable and long-lasting. Also, if you’re looking for a larger bath mat that will run the length of your tub or shower door, this one may fall a bit short. In summary, a diatomite earth mat is a highly absorbent, non-slip mat made from diatomaceous earth.
