Manduka eKO Lite


This is a yoga mat that I would love to try. If bought from the Manduka website they give the proceeds of the salt to Off the Mat, Into theWorld, an organization dedicated to inspiring yogis to take the insight, self-knowledge, inspiration and activation that they get in their yoga practice out into the world!

It is High performance and environmentally friendly. The eKO Lite features Manduka's proprietary natural closed-cell rubber and comfortable sea-grass texture. It is light weight. It is biodegradable.

Here are its features:

• 3.5 lbs.; 68" x 24" x 1/8"
• Features an Off the Mat, Into the World Label
• Click here for a technical animation.
• Travel-friendly for the yogi on-the-go
• Made from non-Amazon harvested, natural tree rubber
• Most durable, eco-friendly mat available today
• Developed over 3 years by yoga teachers
• No PVC or toxic plasticizers

Tri Layer Technology for optimal combination of grip, durability and slip-resistance.

Grip & Durability (Top Layer): 'Sea Grass' surface texture is naturally grippy; the closed-cell surface keeps out moisture (sweat) from seeping into the mat and breeding bacteria for better durability.

Dual Function Cushion (Bottom Layer): Thicker, open-cell bottom layer provides lightweight cushion. It can also be reversed to function as the top surface for more traction. Just flip over for a sweatier practice!

Stretch-resistant Scrim (Center): Made from biodegradable cotton and polyester blend; Binds top/bottom layer together with heating process, eliminating need for toxic glues.

Natural & Biodegradable: Made from biodegradable, non-Amazon harvested tree rubber with non-toxic foaming agents and non-AZO dyes.

To clean it you can use diluted organic cider vinegar and water(50/50) and a damp cloth. To store make sure it is dry then roll it up. So this is super easy to clean and store.

This is a product I would love to try out and own soon. It costs $46 plus shipping on the Manduka website. I have always wanted one of these and would love to be able to get one through the BzzAgent Daily Bzz Campaign. Thanks for looking at this.
