Description
Made from high-grade natural non-Amazon forest harvested rubber, synthetic and recycled rubber. The only rubber yoga mat that can be 100% recycled.
The GECO is a great blend of high performance, cushioning and maximum grip on both sides for any type of practice.
Since we launched the GECO Series in 2020, 2.300 rubber mats have been recycled.
Latex rubber is sensitive to weather conditions. Long exposure to direct or indirect sunlight and high humidity causes it to oxidize. This process can lighten the color of the latex and create fine white deposits on its surface. To remove the fine white deposits please read the care instructions.
Use & Care
Useful tips:
When first out of packaging, the GECO has a rubber smell that will dissipate with time and increased air exposure. Prior to initial use, we recommend leaving your mat to air out overnight in a well-ventilated, dry room.
Wash your hands with soap and water before using your GECO mat. It is essential to remove natural oils or hand cream etcetera because this will cause slippage.
Latex rubber is sensitive to weather conditions. Long exposure to direct or indirect sunlight and high humidity causes it to oxidize. This process can lighten the color of the latex and create fine white deposits on its surface.
To remove the fine white deposits, simply wash the latex surface with a soft cloth, some fresh water, a drop of organic soap, and a teaspoon of natural vinegar. Wipe the surface clean with a cloth and fresh water. Leave the mat flat on the floor to fully dry.
Practising yoga alternately on each side of the mat extends the lifespan of your GECO mat.
To store:
After a yoga practice or workout, always roll your mat with the top surface with the logo facing outwards. The rolled mat should be stored in a yoga mat bag, away from direct or indirect sunlight. Minimizing sunlight exposure will extend the life of your mat.
To clean:
For a quick cleaning after every practice, simply wipe the surface of your mat with a moist cloth. Leave the mat flat on the floor to dry. On occasion for deeper cleaning, use a mild organic detergent or soap (no solvents, no harsh abrasives). Omit the logo area to prevent degradation. Wipe the surface clean with a cloth and fresh water. Leave the mat flat on the floor to fully dry. Alternatively, carefully rinse the surface in the tub or shower without soaking or submerging your mat.
