NATURAL MATS
MATS MADE FROM NATURE, FOR NATURE
Developed out of our continued effort to reduce the environmental impact on our planet, 55% of Plant Foam is made from sugarcane. Combined with our signature, sustainable cork surface we have achieved a yoga mat made with 70% renewable materials.
PLANT FOAM
WHY PLANT FOAM?
Developed out of our effort to reduce the environmental impact on our planet, 55% of Plant Foam is made from sugarcane. Combined with our signature, sustainable cork surface we have achieved a yoga mat made with 70% renewable materials.
ETHICAL LAND MANAGEMENT
Sugarcane used in Plant Foam comes entirely from the mills of Centre- South of Brazil with zero tolerance towards deforestation, guaranteed by the independent international certifiers of RenovaBio. The producers do not cultivate sugarcane in the Amazon, Pantanal, or AltoParaguai River Basin biomes and they comply with the Sugarcane Agroecological Zoning developed by the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply.
EARTH AND BODY KIND
Crops used to create Plant Foam work to remove more greenhouse gases from the atmosphere as they grow. 95% of the water utilized by a typical sugarcane mill is treated and reused, minimizing water usage. Sugarcane fields contribute to healthier soils by limiting soil loss, due in part to the semi-perennial nature of sugarcane. The same plant grows back many times after harvest and is typically only replanted every five or six years. Plus, Plant Foam contains ZERO PVC’s, latex, plasticizers or rubber smells.
NATURAL PERFORMANCE
Plant foam is a win-win for the environment and your practice. Lightweight, optimal cushion, and superior durability. Closed cell structure means it won’t absorb moisture for ease of care.
CORK
CORK IS INCREDIBLY SUSTAINABLE
Cork is as natural, sustainable, renewable, and good for the environment as we can imagine a material to be. The cork that makes up our yoga mats comes from the bark of cork oak trees, which grow in Mediterranean Europe. When the cork is harvested the trees aren't cut down, instead, their bark is carefully stripped away by hand in a skilled trade that's passed down over generations.
It takes nine years for the bark to grow back thick enough to be harvested again. After harvest, as the trees begin to grow back their bark, they suck up to five times more carbon from the atmosphere.
DESIGNER COLLECTION
We have a collection of printed/designed mats and a collection of plain yoga mats (coming soon).
