Use & Care
Without soaking or submerging, spray a generous amount of natural yoga mat cleaner over the entire surface of your mat, paying close attention to any areas of decolorization. Allow the cleaner to sit for 5 minutes and then gently use a clean cloth to wipe mat dry before rolling or using.
We do not recommend cleaning your mat with a garden hose, vacuuming it, or placing it in a bathtub, shower, or washing machine—doing so may damage your eKO mat beyond repair. Do not leave the mat exposed to excessive amounts of sunlight as it will cause mat to oxidize and fade. Do not use any type of soap for cleaning, as it will compromise the performance and integrity of the mat. Do not use the salt method to break in or clean eKO mats.
Sustainability
The eKO Lite Mat is a natural yoga mat made from sustainably harvested tree rubber. Unlike other rubber mats available today, the foaming agents used to create the eKO Lite are non-toxic. What this means is that no toxic chemicals have gone into the manufacturing process to soften the rubber. According to both customer feedback and published yoga mat reviews, the eKO Lite Mat is a high performance mat that is also good for the environment.
