What material is good for yoga mats

  Yoga mats are mats laid on the bottom when practicing yoga. The types of yoga mats are generally divided into TPE foam, PVC foam, EVA, latex mats, CBR mats, etc.

1. TPE is the most high-end product for yoga mats. It does not contain chlorides, does not contain metal elements, and is antistatic. Each mat is about 1200 grams, which is about 300 grams lighter than PVC foam mats, and is more suitable for carrying out. Features: Soft, compliant, and strong grip - it is more secure when placed on any ground. Compared with PVC yoga mats, the weight is about 300 grams lighter, and it is convenient to carry around.

2. PVC is cheap and high-quality, PVC foaming (the weight of a yoga mat with a PVC content of 96% is about 1500 grams) PVC is the name of a chemical raw material, and it is a raw material. However, before PVC is foamed, it is not soft and has the function of anti-slip and cushioning. Only after it is foamed can it produce finished products such as yoga mats and anti-slip mats. Features: PVC materials are affordable and can be bought everywhere. The quality is also guaranteed, and the price is relatively high.

3. Cloth mats are hard to come by. Sometimes, we see some people in yoga classes using a brightly colored yoga mat that looks like an Arabian flying carpet. It is said that this is an Indian yoga cloth mat. Imported from India, this cloth mat is hand-dyed and can be used on ordinary plastic yoga mats. The reason for this is that the plastic yoga mat is not good for contact with the skin, and the cloth mat is also softer, and can be carried around, which plays an isolation role when using public yoga mats. But I don't know if the anti-slip effect of the cloth pad is ideal?

4. The latex pad is formed by evaporation molding. It has countless pores, good air permeability and smooth surface of the pores, so mites cannot attach, and a very important feature of latex juice is the fragrance it emits. Many mosquitoes are reluctant to approach. Excellent elasticity, no deformation, washable and durable. It is a good material for health. However, latex itself cannot prevent the oxidation process, especially when exposed to ultraviolet light, the oxidation process is faster. Moreover, latex rubber has an allergenic effect, and about 8% of people are allergic to latex.
