Frequently Asked Questions
-
What makes cork yoga mats environmentally friendly?
- Cork yoga mats are made from the bark of cork trees, a renewable resource that does not require the tree to be cut down to harvest the cork. The cork bark grows and can be harvested again every 9 to 12 years. Additionally, many cork yoga mats use a recycled rubber base, which contributes to their durability and the reduction of waste.
-
Do cork yoga mats really offer better grip than other materials?
- Yes, cork yoga mats are known for their superior grip. Cork's natural texture actually becomes stiffer when it gets wet, meaning your grip improves during sweaty exercises like hot yoga. This makes them ideal for poses that require stability and strength.
-
How do I maintain my cork yoga mat?
- To maintain your cork yoga mat, wipe it with a damp cloth after each practice session. For a deeper cleaning you can use a mild detergent diluted with water. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents as they can damage the cork. Allow your mat to dry completely before rolling it up and storing it, and do not expose it to direct sunlight to avoid discoloration or deformation.

Are cork yoga mats suitable for people with allergies?
- Yes, cork is naturally hypoallergenic and antimicrobial, meaning it resists bacteria, mold and dust mites. This makes cork yoga mats an excellent choice for people with allergies or sensitivities.
