Carpet mats made of this coarse fiber extracted from the outer shell of coconuts are excellent for catching dirt and mud as well as to soak up water from feet wet with snow or tootsies running in from the pool. Another popular natural fiber for carpet mats is sisal. Made of fibers from the agave sisalana, these outdoor mats feature easy to clean, mold and mildew resistant surfaces that also weather the wear and tear of high heels, tennis shoes, and boots.
