b, mats

What are the b, mats made of?

Our traditional b, mat is made of 100% rubber with natural and synthetic components. The natural rubber used in our mats is inherently grippy and antimicrobial, making it perfect for a sweaty practice. The small amount of synthetic rubber is used to increase the durability and longevity of the mat.

What is the lifespan of a b, mat?

The lifespan of your B MAT depends on how often you practice, your style of practice, and how you care for and store your mat. When cared for and stored properly, our mats are designed to support your practice for 2+ years. When your b, mat is not in use, it should be stored indoors, away from direct sunlight. Direct sun exposure to your b, mat can cause UV damage and deterioration. Your b, mat can be used outdoors, however, it should never be left in direct sunlight for an extended period. When rolling your b, mat for storage, please roll it with the logo facing outward, as this will prevent creasing or peeling in your b, mat. We also recommend using your b, mat with clean hands and feet, as oils (e.g. from moisturizers and hand sanitizers) and dirt can affect the mat surface.

Why is there a smell to the b, mat?

We pride ourselves in not using harsh chemicals, finishes, or sealants on our mats. Any smell omitted from our mats is a result of the natural rubber used in the composition of the mat. This mild scent is most apparent first out of the packaging but will dissipate with time and increased air exposure.

How should I roll and store my mat?

When your b, mat is not in use, it should be stored indoors, away from direct sunlight. Direct sun exposure to your b, mat can cause UV damage and dehydration. Your b, mat can be used outdoors, however, it should never be left in direct sunlight for an extended period. When rolling your b, mat for storage, please roll it with the logo facing the outward, as this will prevent creasing or peeling in your b, mat.

Can I practice or store my mat outside?

It is best to avoid prolonged periods of direct sunlight, as sunlight can oxidize the rubber material of the b, mat, therefore, compromising its grip and colour. This can occur directly if left outside in the sun or indirectly through car/home/studio windows. If you have left your mat in direct sunlight we recommend wiping it down with a damp cloth of water to bring some hydration back into its surface.

How do I clean my b, mat?

For best results, we recommend the b, mat cleanser. Alternatively, gently wipe down with water and mild detergent and rinse. Wipe dry, lay flat and allow to air dry out of direct sunlight with the coloured side facing up. We suggest avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasives as this can compromise the integrity of the mat surface. Allow the mat to dry completely before use. Be sure to roll the mat with the b, mat logo facing out.

What if my mat is dusty?

Dust is normal when you first start using your new mat. The surface texture of our mats attracts dust at first because of the grippy natural rubber. The dust attraction will dissipate after you’ve used your mat for a few weeks – all the more reason to get your movement on!

What if there is discolouration showing on my mat?

It is completely normal to see some slight variance in the colour of the mat, and it may result from the mat drying out after being fully saturated with water. We suggest allowing the mat to dry fully, out of direct sunlight, before rolling up.

What if there are some marks on the surface of the mat?

It is completely normal to see some nicks or wear on the surface of the mat and part of this is a trade-off for the grippy nature of the mat. We recommend keeping the mat hydrated by wiping it down with water and avoid heavy sliding activities to minimize this type of wear. You may also notice darker spots on our lighter-colored mats which is completely normal.

What is your warranty on the b, mats?

There is a one-year warranty on all b, mats. Warranty is only in effect if the mat has been cared for following our cleaning instructions. Warranty will not cover damage caused by sun exposure, improper care, and maintenance, dirt or stains, normal wear or tear (such as marks where the hand or feet move during practice), or any alterations made to the mat. Mats provided under our warranty program are not eligible under this warranty.

How do I recycle my mat?

Our recommendation for disposal is that you donate it to a program, yogi, or studio accepting donations. Since the mat is made of natural and biodegradable rubber, it can be recycled where tires or other rubber materials are recycled in your city or town, if you find your mat is too damaged to donate! We always recommend doing a quick search of your local recycling programs and where they accept rubber products to make sure it is ending up in the right place.

aromatherapy

What carrier oils are used in your blends?

Depending on which blend, we use jojoba oil or coconut oil as a carrier. Please see ingredient list for each blend as ingredients are listed on each product page.

Are your oils organically sourced?

Our essential oils are 100% pure natural with zero synthetics and organic ingredients.

What is the roller ball made of?

Our unique roller ball is made out of carnelian crystal.

What is the shelf life of your essential oils?

Our essential oils have a general "shelf life" of 1.5- 2 years. You will find that some oils get better with time (such as patchouli) while others may start to expire after the 2 year mark. Caring for your essential oils is also a factor in their longevity. We recommend storing your oils in a cool, dark space with the lid tightly closed when possible. This will reduce any chances of your oil oxidizing and becoming less effective over time.
