The Benefits of Natural Rubber

in Eco-Friendly Yoga Products

At our yoga store, we prioritize both quality and environmental responsibility in the selection of materials for our products. One of the standout materials we use is natural rubber, which offers numerous benefits and plays a critical role in the creation of practical, eco-friendly yoga products.

what is

natural rubber?

Natural rubber is derived from the latex sap of the rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis, which is native to the tropical forests of Central and South America, and some regions of Asia. 

The process of extracting latex involves a technique called tapping, where the sap flows out of the tree and is collected without harming the tree. Rubber trees can take up to 30 years to mature before they begin producing the latex required for rubber production.

the rubber production

process

Once the latex is harvested, it undergoes a series of processes to transform it into high-quality rubber. These stages include:

  • Drying and coagulation to solidify the latex
  • Vulcanization, which strengthens the material, making it more elastic and resistant to wear

The result is a durable, flexible material with excellent anti-slip properties, making it ideal for yoga mats. Natural rubber mats provide a firm, reliable grip on various surfaces, ensuring safety and comfort during your practice.
