Understanding your mat before you refresh, restore, or thoroughly clean.Updated 2 years ago

Understanding the different materials used in our Manduka mats is important, as there are different methods needed to deep clean them. 

PRO Series – PRO, PROlite, PRO Travel – These mats are made using a closed-cell material, meaning nothing can be absorbed into the mat, and the mat can be cleaned thoroughly on the surface every time.

CLEAN WITH: Mat Wash & Refresh + Botanical Disinfecting Cleaner

eKO® Series – eKO, eKO Lite, eKO Superlite – These mats are made of a natural rubber, also a closed-cell material. These mats can also be easily cleaned, but need to be dried properly. 

CLEAN WITH: Mat Wash & Refresh + Natural Rubber Mat Restore (monthly) + Botanical Disinfecting Cleaner

GRP® Series – GRP, GRP Lite, Adapt – These mats are made from an open-cell PU and rubber construction. Their goal is to absorb moisture and provide maximum grip as they get wet, so thoroughly cleaning these mats requires the most attention and care because this material is very absorbent.

CLEAN WITH: Mat Wash & Refresh + GRP Restore (monthly)

Foundation Series – Manduka X, Begin Mats – These mats are made using a TPE closed-cell material, meaning nothing can be absorbed into the mat, and the mat can be cleaned thoroughly on the surface every time.

USE: Mat Wash & Refresh + Botanical Disinfecting Cleaner
