The yoga mats from Manduka's eKO series are the right choice for environmentally conscious yogis who value easy maintenance and a long mat life. In contrast to other natural rubber mats, the eKO Lite has a closed-cell surface and is therefore protected from sweat, dirt and dust, making it easy to clean and particularly robust. The eKO Lite also has an extremely positive environmental balance: Natural rubber is 100% biodegradable and Manduka completely avoids the use of harmful chemicals in its manufacture. In the particularly thin and light travel version, the eKO yoga mat can be rolled and folded and fits in any hand luggage. The two-layer technology used by Manduka ensures that the eKO SuperLite has the right grip and stability: the orange peel-like surface structure makes the mat particularly easy to grip. The bottom layer of the mat is made of organic cotton and is welded to the top layer under high temperature. No toxic adhesives are used. Natural rubber mats have a natural rubber odour that dissipates over time.
