• Pro Tip: Natural rubber provides a semi-sticky grip, but since it won't absorb sweat, we always recommend pairing your practice with our eQua® hand towels or yogitoes® hand towels (read our Guide to Yoga Towels) to absorb moisture and increase grip or improve your grip with our Yoga Grip Gel

Without soaking or submerging, spray a generous amount of Manduka’s Natural Rubber Yoga Mat Restore 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.

The updated eKO® Series is a natural yoga mat made from sustainably harvested tree rubber and containing over 30% recycled rubber. Unlike other rubber mats available today, the foaming agents used to create the eKO® are non-toxic. What this means is that no toxic chemicals have gone into the manufacturing process to soften the rubber. eKO® Series mats are the most durable natural rubber mats on the market, which means the mat will last longer before you have to replace it, therefore creating less waste. The packaging is made from recycled PET. Crafted in Taiwan.
