Looking for a new yoga mat?

The best mats today are eco-friendly, and are made from natural materials like cotton, jute and rubber.

Cotton comes from the cotton plant, and makes a hard-wearing material which breathes. The big benefit of cotton-based mats is that you can toss the mat into the washing machine to keep it clean.

Jute is a plant material which is used for making floor coverings and the material called hessian. The big benefit of jute is that it’s hard wearing, and once discarded, it’s naturally bio-degradable.

Natural rubber comes from rubber trees and is a very hardwearing material — there’s little likelihood that you would ever wear out a rubber mat.

Eco-friendly yoga mats are often made of a combination of materials, so that they’re ideal for your yoga practice.
