Hardwood floor care can be unqiue and distinctive with bamboo floor mats. It is always a good idea to place floor rugs in places where your hardwood flooring is more suseptible to damage ... at main entrances, in front of the kitchen sink and refrigerator, under pet food dishes, etc.
Most floor rugs and mats, for kitchens as an example, are made with a rubber backing that is hazardous to the polyurethane finish of your hardwood floors. And often a desirable style or color is difficult to find. Consider enhancing your wood floors with the easy to clean, safe fabric backing, classy look of bamboo.
The backing on this particular brand is a safe, non-reactive material for polyurethane finish, but it is not slip resistant. You can place an appropriate rug pad for hardwood floors, cut to fit, beneath the bamboo floor mat if anti-slip is a concern.
Bamboo floor mats are easy to clean. Simply shake them out and wipe them with water or your hardwood floor cleaner. They don't harbor dust, animal hair or other allegens like a carpet-style floor mat or rug does. They don't require hand-washing or machine washing. Nor will they fade or discolor. And they will match any decor. In fact, they look great in a room with a differet flooring style too, such as a tiled bathroom, and nicely tie the two flooring designs together.
If you love the look and easy maintenance of your hardwood flooring, you'll love a bamboo floor mat.
