Yoga cork mat

A cork yoga mat is truly Eco Friendly. To obtain cork, the oak tree does not need to be cut down, but only the surface layer of the bark is cut from the tree. This layer is renewed in 15-20 years. Cork farmers in Portugal take good care of oak trees, nurture them and allow them to grow unhindered, as this is their income and they strive for the best quality cork.

Cork does not cause allergies, it is a naturally antibacterial "product". It contains the substance suberin (waxy substance), which makes it resistant to fire and water. Cork is a great natural insulator.

Maintaining a cork yoga mat

Cork is a very durable material. Therefore, your yoga mat will last a very long time with minimal care and maintenance. It is important to always roll it from the outside to the outer side (so that the cork is on the outside) - this will prevent the cork from breaking and prevent the yoga mat from bending.

Do not expose the mat to direct sunlight, do not leave it in a hot and dry place, do not leave it in a car in the sun (this applies to all yoga mats).

After practicing yoga, when the yoga mat is wet and damp from sweat or water, be sure to dry the mat before rolling it up. Spread the mat out on the floor or hang it up to dry completely before rolling it up.

Cleaning a cork yoga mat

Cork is a natural material and has antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. In case of very frequent use, regular cleaning (once a week) is recommended. Clean the mat with cold water and a gentle, non-aggressive detergent. Then you must dry it well.

The cork can darken in individual parts or the mat gets darker stains. It is quite possible that such dark spots will not be able to be removed. This is completely natural, as our skin releases various substances to the surface through sweating, which can stain natural materials.

Creams, oils and lotions used on the skin can also cause the mat to become discolored. But the function of the mat remains unchanged!

If our cork yoga mat is really dirty, we can immerse it for a while in cold water, to which we have added a gentle, non-aggressive detergent and rub it lightly with a soft sponge or cloth. Then wash off the soap thoroughly and dry well.
