- The eKO Mat is made from non-Amazon harvested, natural tree rubber
- The eKO Mat is designed to provide the ultimate combination of cushion and grip
- The Cotton Yoga Strap is made from unbleached cotton with a high tensile-strength weave
- The Cork Block is made from sustainable cork making it weigh less than coarse-grain cork commonly used for blocks
- The Cork Block has a easy-to-grip textured surface and comfortable contoured edges for superior comfort
- Grip & Durability (Top Layer): "Sea Grass" surface texture is naturally grippy; the closed-cell surface keeps out moisture (sweat) from seeping into the mat and breeding bacteria for better durability.
- Dual Function Cushion (Bottom Layer): Thicker, open-cell bottom layer provides lightweight cushion. It can also be reversed to function as the top surface for more traction. Just flip over for a sweatier practice!
- Stretch-resistant Scrim (Center): Made from biodegradable cotton and polyester blend; binds top/bottom layer together with heating process, eliminating need for toxic glues.
The eKO Mat is made from sustainably harvested tree rubber. Unlike other rubber mats available today, the foaming agents used to create the eKO are non-toxic. This means that no toxic chemicals have gone into the manufacturing process to soften rubber; when the eKO mat is disposed of and biodegrades, it will not leave behind a toxic residue. Additionally, instead of using synthetic polyester for reinforcement, Manduka has chosen to use a blend of polyester and natural cotton.
Cotton Yoga Strap: The Cotton Yoga Strap is made from unbleached natural cotton, reducing chemicals and toxins released into the environment during the manufacturing process.
Each detail is a conscious decision. Manduka constructs bags from recycled polyester fabrics and zippers from recycled plastic bottles. Their eKO line of yoga mats is produced using biodegradable rubber sustainably harvested from rubber trees with no toxic glues. Designed to last a lifetime, the PRO Series mats minimize impact on the environment and ensure years of superior practice for our community. Manduka's prop collection was developed using materials including sustainable cork, natural unbleached cotton, and recycled wool fibers.
Cotton Yoga Strap: 100% natural unbleached cotton
