Eco-friendly yoga mat offers antimicrobial protection

Published On: May 1, 2009

Problem: Even premium yoga mats can harbor germs that antibacterial sprays do not adequately control.

Solution: The CleanMat from Sommers Plastics has built-in anti-microbial protection using patented silver technology by Agion® to keep it free of bacteria and fungus. The antimicrobial protection is embedded throughout the entire mat, not just on the surface, to last the life of the mat. The two-sided mat’s multi-use design offers a choice of grip surfaces, has rounded corners, is extra long and thick, and is PVC- and latex-free. The technology was recently awarded MBDC Silver Cradle to Cradle Certification for environmentally intelligent design. Distributed exclusively by Equifit, Dedham, Mass.
