In addition the material is weather and mildew proof, UV and fade resistant, massaging/cushioning, and easy to clean with water (hose/sink).
Art Mats are most often used indoors to decorate with and to protect floors. This matte finish PVC material is smooth and can easily be printed on to capture photographs and/or intricate art should you want to upload imagery and customize your mat. Made of 100% BPA free 4MM PVC vinyl, is easy to clean with soap and water. This material’s weight allows it to lay flat and its backing is slip-resistant. Our Art Mat Collection provides an exciting, more contemporary alternative to traditional rugs and we have a wide variety of designs to choose from. (This material is not antibacterial)
Yoga and Exercise Mats antibacterial yoga mats provide both fashion and function. Out mats are made with BPA free, 6MM PVC that has an antibacterial agent embedded into the material. The material surface has a leather like texture that helps with hand and foot traction. The almost smooth surface allows for photographic or intricate artwork to be replicated should you want to create a custom mat. Otherwise we have a gallery of wonderful designs to choose from.

Yoga or Exercise Mats are antibacterial and so stylish. They are great to take to the gym, to a friend’s house or to a spa. The PVC material has an antibacterial agent embedded into the material to protect you from germs when you leave your home. The mat is slightly texturized with a leather-like surface to stop your feet and hands from slipping. The almost smooth surface enables the printing of words, photographs, and artwork should you choose to customize your mat. Our gallery of aspirational mats are also sure to inspire excellence during your workouts.
All of our mats are so easy to wash either with a hose or in the sink. For stubborn dirt add some dishwashing liquid to the water. For the yoga mats we recommend wiping them down with a damp cloth and a small amount antibacterial spray.
Payment
All mats are made to order, we don’t carry stock in the hope that someone will buy it. You are unique and your choices are also. Normal production will be completed within 17 days and you can expect to receive it (them) within the next 7 days or before.
We have extensively tested the inks so they will be UV resistant. The warmer colors-red and pink do slightly fade if they are in direct sunlight.
Coconut mats have a habit of shedding and losing their tufts. This material is known to get discolored and moldy over time when left outside becoming unattractive and a health hazard if the mold takes hold. Our mats have none of these issues and provide a safe and clean alternative that is easily maintained
