Sustainability
Sustainability is at the heart of our business.
We are committed to being a conscious and climate-friendly business which means working with intention and integrity. Therefore, we are open about all aspects of our supply chain, so you know exactly what you are buying, how it was made, and how it travels to you.
In order to keep our prices as low as possible for our customers, as well as to ship globally, we source our products from a factory in China. We are very pleased with our supplier and have formed an incredibly close and personal relationship with them. The Zoya team has over 40 years of experience working with factories in Asia, this has enabled us to ensure that our products are manufactured in the most sustainable way possible.
The factory that we work with is regularly audited in order to allow us to keep track of and ensure that the team and the factory are working in accordance with ethical wages and working hours, as well as ethical and safe manufacturing processes and working conditions.
After testing many different materials and many different products, we decided to go with two different materials for our mats and one material for our yoga block. We decided to choose two different yoga mat materials so that we could meet the needs of our customers. Some yogis prefer to have a lightweight and easily transportable mat (Affinity Mat) and others may prefer to practice on a larger and more luxurious mat (Freedom Mat).
Product materials
Freedom Mat
Our Freedom Mat is handcrafted from sustainably sourced natural tree rubber and eco-polyurethane (vegan). The natural tree rubber comes from the sap of a tropical tree called Hevea Brasiliensis, or more commonly known as a rubber tree. The sap, a thick liquid known as latex in its natural form, is elastic. Therefore, the rubber is synthesised from latex and makes an extremely durable and resistant material. It is non-toxic and tasteless. The rubber is then combined with a thin eco-polyurethane (vegan) layer, which is a biodegradable plastic and is easily recycled. This layer allows the Freedom Mat to have an incredible, non-slip grip.

It is important to note that we strive to be as sustainable as possible, but we understand there is always more we can do.

We hope that as we grow we will be able to gain access to more resources and continue to better our business.
