Cork yoga MATS have the following advantages over other common yoga MATS:
Material aspect
The main material of cork yoga mat is cork, natural oak, renewable resources, non-toxic and tasteless, compared with NBR, PVC and other chemical materials more environmentally friendly and healthy.
Anti-slip property
The texture and characteristics of cork itself make it have good anti-slip ability, and most softwood yoga MATS will add non-slip materials such as natural rubber on the back to further enhance anti-slip, and effectively prevent the displacement of the mat when doing various yoga movements, providing users with solid support.
Sweat absorption property
The "honeycomb structure" of cork can absorb sweat, keep the body dry, and make the user more comfortable during the exercise process, which is an advantage that NBR, TPE and other materials do not have.
Elasticity and buffering
Cork yoga MATS are usually combined with elastic materials such as rubber, which retain the comfortable touch of cork, but also provide good resilience and cushioning effects, and perform well in protecting the joints, which is not inferior to natural rubber yoga MATS.
Appearance and function
In appearance, the cork yoga mat retains the natural texture and color, giving a simple and natural feeling, and some will have exquisite embroidery or a variety of color patterns to meet the personalized aesthetic needs. In terms of function, some softwood yoga MATS use the concept of "orthoyoga", and the orthographic ruler is printed on the cushion surface, which helps to correct yoga poses and avoid physical injury caused by wrong poses.
