Sustainable yoga mat for yoga, Pilates and Co.
Floor training such as yoga or Pilates is the perfect balance to stressful everyday life. Exercises for posture, breathing and concentration can help you find yourself again and gain new strength for the challenges of everyday life. Yoga mats are the ideal training partner for this.
The cork yoga mat is the ideal partner for yoga, Pilates and stretching and strengthening training at home. Thanks to the cork upper material, the mat remains grippy even when wet. The natural surface is also soft, warm and skin-friendly for exceptional comfort during floor training. After the workout, the training mat can be easily rolled up and stored to save space.
Why cork fitness equipment?
The material used in the cork exercise mat is harvested directly from cork trees in Portugal. The Western European country manufactures high-quality products with fair working conditions. The cork oak is an evergreen deciduous tree whose trunk is ideally suited for the extraction of the environmentally friendly raw material.
When this oak tree is at least 20 years old, it can be used for raw material extraction for the first time. The tree is not felled during harvest. Experienced cork farmers peel the natural material by hand from the tree, which is the only tree in the world not to suffer any injuries from this process. Only after seven to ten years can the tree be used again for the cork harvest. This makes cork a 100% sustainable material.
The cork fabric of this exercise mat does not contain any heavy metals or their compounds, organic solvents, mineral fibers or formaldehyde.
Easy care and antibacterial
Cork is the new trend material in fitness, gymnastics, yoga and Pilates. The material, which is otherwise more commonly known as flooring or wine bottle stoppers, consists of 100% natural raw materials, is recyclable and absolutely skin-friendly and easy to care for.
Since cork has an antibacterial effect and bacteria cannot permanently settle on the material, cleaning with a damp cloth is usually sufficient. In addition, cork is very hard-wearing and simply feels pleasant on the skin. A real all-rounder!
