Jade Yoga Towels are made with certified U.S. grown organic cotton. Organic cotton is better for you and the earth than any other fiber as it does not use genetically modified seeds, toxic and persistent pesticides or herbicides, bleach, heavy metals or synthetic fertilizers.
And through their partnership with thewaterproject.org, Jade Yoga will provide a month's worth of clean drinking water for one person in the developing world for every towel sold.
Naturally Absorbent
Cotton is pure cellulose, a naturally occurring polymer which attract water molecules absorb water well - about 25 times its weight in water. A perfect accessory for hot yoga and other exercise practices like Pilates.
Comfortable and Versatile
Soft and comfortable, organic cotton is perfect for drying off during your yoga work out. It also is comfortable and thick enough to provide warmth and lift like a blanket Please note that because this towel is made of organic cotton, it is not designed to provide grip like the synthetic fiber towels on the market, but rather absorbency, warmth and lift.
Wash before use to remove loose fibers.
All of Jade's eco-friendly organic cotton towel is certified organic by U.S. producers who do not use pesticides, herbicides, bleach, heavy metals, synthetic fertilizers nor genetically modified seeds.
They have worked with more groups then we care to list but here are a few:
- Off the Mat, Into the World: A group that brings people together in sustainable and meaningful activities
- Bent on Learning: A New York city group working with over 3,000 at-risk youth
- Vitamin Angels: Fight to reduce infant mortality rates globally
- Trees for the Future: Plants trees worldwide to improve the environment, local economies and the lives of local residents
Made in the USA
Not only are they environmentally consensus but Jade Yoga focuses on people too, their mats are made in the United States in compliance with all US environmental and labor laws.
Trees for the Future
Finally, through its partnership with Trees for the Future, Jade Yoga plants a tree for every yoga mat you buy. Trees for the Future is a organization that works with local communities on projects that are environmentally and economically sustainable. They are not about going in and dictating what they are going to do then doing it and walking away. They engage the local community which leads to a project that can continue long after Trees for the Future has left. Trees for the Future works to develop and implement programs to improve living standards for the participants, by the careful management, rather than the exploitation, of our natural resources.
A company that sees value in more than just money is a company with a cause and here at Greencupboards we love companies that are more than profit margins.
Jade's 3 Rs - Reuse, Reduce, Recycle
JadeYoga has developed a program for reusing yoga mats - bringing them to those who otherwise might not be able to afford them, reduce the number of yoga mats going to landfills and recycle any mats that cannot be reused.
The primary goal of the Jade 3R Program is to maximize the local reuse of returned yoga mats. Without a doubt, local reuse has the lowest environmental impact. They have had many requests over the years from a number inspiring yoga teachers who have volunteered to teach in shelters, schools, prisons, rehabilitation centers etc., who would love to have used mats for their programs. They hope their Jade 3R Program will make it easier to put more mats in the hands of these great teachers.
