Dual Layer Technology for optimal combination of grip, durability and slip-resistance.. Info & Care :. To Clean: We recommend using Manduka Mat Restore or a diluted organic cider vinegar wash (50/50) and a damp cloth or sponge.. It is recommended that you DO NOT put the eKO Mat in the washing machine, as it will encourage the material to break down (biodegrade).. To Store: Do not leave the mat exposed to excessive amounts of sunlight. If wet, allow the mat to dry before rolling up.. Through Manduka\'s manufacturing process, the eKO Series mats are 99% latex free, and safe to use for people with latex sensitivities.. However, if you know you are sensitive to even traces of latex then we recommend you purchase from our PRO Series yoga mats.. Green Mission:. The eKO Mat is made from sustainably harvested tree 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 rubber; when the eKO mat is disposed of and biodegrades, it will not leave behind a toxic residue.. Additionally, instead of using synthetic polyester for reinforcement, we have chosen to use a blend of polyester and natural cotton.
