I was thrilled when my beautiful teak shower mat from Saleberate arrived. The warm, rich wood and handcrafted design added a touch of nature to my bathroom that I instantly loved. But as stunning as it was, I knew I’d need to care for it properly to keep it looking its best.

Daily Care

After each shower, I learned it’s essential to give the mat a quick wipe-down to keep moisture at bay. Water pooling can lead to staining or warping, so I make sure to towel it off or leave it propped up against the wall. This small habit has been easy to work into my routine, and it really makes a difference!

Weekly Maintenance

Every week, I like to give my mat a bit of extra TLC. I mix a mild soap with warm water, dampen a soft cloth, and gently clean the surface. I’m careful not to soak it – a gentle wipe is all it needs to stay fresh. I also make sure it’s fully dry before putting it back on the floor.

Monthly Conditioning

Teak wood naturally has high oil content, but every month or so, I treat my mat with a light coat of teak or mineral oil. This helps preserve its rich color and protects it from the moisture it encounters daily. I apply the oil with a soft cloth, wipe off any excess, and let it dry completely.

Bonus Tip for Humid Areas

Living in a humid climate can be a bit tough on wooden products, so I try to air out the bathroom regularly and avoid leaving the mat on wet floors for long periods.

Taking a few moments to care for my wooden shower mat has been worth every second. Thanks to these simple habits, my mat looks just as good as the day I bought it from Saleberate and continues to add elegance and warmth to my bathroom.
