When being a doormat isn’t a bad thing

Local doormat manufacturer USCOA LLC doesn't mind if you step all over their product.

The company recently launched a new website : http://www.elegantentrancemats.com/ that features high-end entrance rugs made of coir, a material produced from coconut husks that's known for its cleaning properties and rot resistance.

Mats can be ordered to fit entrances with double doors, sliding doors, single doors and doors with sidelights, the company said. There is literally almost no door that can't have a mat.

ElegantEntranceMats.com is a subsidiary of USCOA, which has manufactured coir doormats since 1889 while undergoing several different name changes. The company employs 25 people at its lone production facility in St. George.

USCOA is the only manufacturer of coir mats in the United States, the company said in a news release.

We assume that means USCOA has wiped its feet on the competition.
