HOW OUR YOGA MATS ARE PRODUCED

Beinks yoga mats are manufactured in Spain and Taiwan – the countries that are currently the most advanced in yoga mat production, especially natural rubber yoga mats.

Source of material

The material for our b’AIR and b’EARTH is sustainably sourced from South East Asia (mainly fron Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines and Indonesia). In normal condition, rubber tree provides resin for 30 years. After that, the rubber trees from these local farms will be cut down for use of wood, and new trees will be planted in original places. It is considered the best way for a sustainable growth of natural resources from agricultural.

On another note, our mats are biodegradable, which means they will decompose naturally after 3 – 5 years in typical landfill conditions. That will help reduce the amount of waste and give more space on our planet.

For b’ROCK mats, they are free from latex and 6P. Everyone might have heard of the terms, but for a better understanding, 6P is a type of toxic chemical called Phthalates. It is a group of chemicals mainly used for softening and increasing flexibility of plastic. It is toxic and it is common in lots of yoga mats and equipments. However, this is not the case with b’ROCK yoga mat, which is free from these toxic chemicals.

Production

We have carefully selected our producers and the factories who ensure that they meet all the high standards of ethical work place practices and code of conduct. Our Beinks mats meet SGS certification and are free from toxic chemicals.

Packaging

Beinks yoga mats are packaged with recycled papers.
