HOME ENTRANCE CARPET: WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE?

The use of entrance carpets in addition to the traditional ones to decorate rooms from the living room to the kitchen is becoming increasingly common. These carpets, if comfortable and durable, make it possible to create a functional entrance space that is both beautiful to look at and effective in cleaning the floor, or if placed outside the entrance, they are perfect for decorating and welcoming guests.

But how do you choose the right entrance carpet for your needs? Is it better outside or just inside? Or both?


Outdoor house entrance carpet, pros and cons

The first thing to consider when choosing a outdoor house entrance carpet is its location and the space available. A carpet that is too small or narrow in relation to the area for which it is intended may not be aesthetically pleasing. In addition, it is important to consider its function: will it be purely a piece of furniture or will it be used as an absorbent dryer-type entrance mat? Will it be placed inside the entrance door or in an area where it might get wet from rain?
These are all important questions to ask yourself to begin to understand how to choose the right outdoor entrance mat. But not only that.


Ever thought about the indoor house entrance carpet?

Many people underestimate the importance of a home interior entrance mat, yet placing a doormat immediately after the entrance to one's home can prove to be a winning choice. There are several reasons for this: it can be a new furnishing element to take into account, because it gives that extra touch of colour to the room. It preserves floor hygiene by capturing incoming dirt. It acts as a step dryer if placed between the entrance and hallway. Lasts longer because it is protected by the door. If thought out in a pleasing design, it pleasantly greets those who enter and welcomes them.

If you have never thought about an indoor entrance mat, now is the time to do it. That is why we are telling you about Global!

Global, the perfect magic carpet for the interior home entrance

When choosing the right home entrance carpet, the significant impact on the cleanliness and safety of the home is often underestimated.

The "Global" magic carpet is the idea devised by Olivo Tappeti specifically for the interior home entrance. Thanks to its soft, quick-drying microfibre, it effectively absorbs water and dirt, keeping your home clean and safe. In addition, the non-slip latex backing ensures greater stability and safety during use. It can be placed inside the entrance of the house, so that dirt and water from outside are captured. In this way, floors will remain clean and dry, reducing the risk of falls and accidents.

The Global Magic Carpet is also easy to clean. It can be washed by hand or by machine at 30°, ensuring thorough cleaning and a long service life. In addition, the sleek and modern design makes it perfect for every type of home and furnishing style. Overall, it is an excellent choice due to its unique features and high quality.

Choosing the right entrance matting may seem like an insignificant detail, but in reality for both outdoor and indoor entrance matting you need to consider various aspects before deciding. 
Let's look at some of them together.

PVC or coconut doormat, the dilemma between synthetic and natural

Once you have chosen the right location for your doormat, another variable to consider is the material: synthetic or natural?
As a synthetic material, a PVC or polypropylene doormat is very resistant to stains, mould and weather. Due to its robustness it is recommended for the uncovered outdoor entrance where it is directly exposed to UV rays.
In contrast, among natural materials a coconut mat or a rubber doormat is the flexible and durable choice for every use, especially for covered outdoor entrances - for example on landings - or indoor entrances that are not directly affected by water, and is easy to clean. Ease of cleaning is one of the deciding factors when choosing a house entrance carpet: a short-pile synthetic carpet is easier to handle than a long-pile one made of natural material. It can be washed with water and dries quickly without changing shape or colour over a long period of time.

In addition, when choosing a house entrance carpet it is important to keep an eye on certain properties and understand whether:

- it is absorbent, making it perfect as an entrance dryer;

- it is antimicrobial, preventing the growth of bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites;

- is waterproof or draining,because it 'bounces' water or allows it to seep through without the carpet becoming soaked;

- has reinforced edges, when designed with a reinforcement to counteract wear and tear and increase lifespan, even after years of use.

As we have seen, the choice between an outdoor and an indoor home entrance mat - such as the Global magic carpet - must be well thought out according to one's needs and the type of home. All solutions have their advantages, but personal taste will also play a decisive role in the final decision. Certainly, with Olivo Tappeti's advice and quality offer, you will not be left empty-handed for your next home entrance carpet!
