The combination of two natural ecological materials for a healthy and comfortable practice! No trees are cut down or damaged to obtain a natural yoga mat. While cork is harvested from the bark of cork oaks (Quercus super), natural rubber is extracted from the sap of the Hevea brasiliensis (rubber tree). The inherent properties of the natural materials that go into making your Achamana rug are durability, natural resilience and low maintenance.

Rubber has an enormous ability to capture carbon dioxide while being a leading socio-environmental agent. Its weak point is the negative impact on bio-diversity than its large-scale mono-culture, but all things considered, rubber remains, by far, more ecological and undoubtedly healthier for the environment and our health than PVC, plastic, EVA foam or vinyl often used for mats and bags usually offered in yoga shops.
