What is a tpe yoga mat? What is the difference compared with normal yoga mats?

Now more and more people start to practice yoga, and yoga mat is an essential tool. Yoga mats are soft, odorless, non-slip, and strong in resilience, making them a choice for yoga practitioners. According to the material, yoga mats are divided into TPE foam, PVC foam, EVA, latex mat, CBR mat, etc. Chaozhong is here to give everyone a popular science TPE yoga mat.

Compared with the PVC yoga mat, TPE yoga mat has insurmountable advantages:

(1) Environmental protection, no PVC, no metal elements, no pungent smell.

(2) Natural oxidative cracking can be recycled to avoid environmental pollution.

(3) It is soft, flat, and flat, so that the entire mat can stick to the ground and grasp the ground.

(4) Lightweight, each cushion weighs about 1200 grams, which is about 300 grams lighter than PVC foamed cushions, which is easy to carry and store;

(5) Waterproof and non-slip, even if the soles of the feet and hands are sweaty, doing yoga exercises on them will also be non-slip. Beautiful anti-slip particles are made on the front and back sides, and the anti-slip effect is better.

(6) Good elasticity and strong resilience. Although the thickness is 4-6mm and the resilience is strong, you will feel soft and comfortable when doing yoga on it, and it will not feel thin at all. It won't harden over time.

(7) Two colors, front and back, increase aesthetics.

Due to the high cost of production technology and production line of TPE yoga mats, the introduction of a complete set of equipment from Taiwan and the relatively high rejection rate are the main reasons for the higher product prices. Now some manufacturers use low-quality tpe raw materials to mix with other recycled rubber materials, pretending to be tpe yoga mats and sell them at low prices. Actually produced yoga mats have much lower product life, slip resistance and environmental performance. So when choosing, you should choose a brand with after-sales guarantee.

The carefully bought yoga mat will be your good friend for practicing yoga from now on. It is natural to treat good friends with care. If you buy a yoga mat and use it often but never maintain it, the dust and sweat accumulated on the surface of the yoga mat will eventually endanger the health of the owner, so it is necessary to clean the yoga mat frequently. Yoga mats that are not cleaned may contain harmful substances and dust mites. The harmful substances can cause skin diseases, and the threat of dust mites to people with allergic constitution is to induce allergic dermatitis. In addition, many fitness industry players encourage consumers to bring their own yoga mats, or provide wet wipes and cleaning fluids for consumers to clean themselves. However, I am worried that the cleaning liquid may not have enough cleaning power, and the entire pad is not wet when used, and the cleaning effect is not good.
