With each play mat purchased, we will remove 50 grams of plastic from our shores and oceans. That’s equivalent to 10 plastic shopping bags or 170 plastic straws! Read more about our Cleaner Oceans Pledge here.
Why our play mats are so great
The foam which is routinely used for babies’ play mats in the UK is made from EVA, banned in several European countries due to health concerns. Even companies which claim to sell non-toxic EVA mats are not selling a truly non-toxic product, just a reduced level of the toxin formamide, rather than none at all. Alternatives you might find are usually made of PVC or polyurethane foam. Sadly PVC is one of the most toxic plastics for human health and to the planet, and polyurethane is a known respiratory toxin. Babies and children are especially sensitive to these toxins. And a play mat is somewhere a baby is likely to spend a large proportion of their day.
This is why we have created a truly non-toxic foam play mat made from trees! Made only from natural rubber and cork the mats are shock absorbent, antibacterial, easy to clean, naturally non-slip and super light and transportable. And of course they are made from sustainable and biodegradable materials. With simple and unique designs, they’ll look great in your house too!
I’m a meditation teacher, as part of my practice I do some gentle yoga postures (Asana) everyday. I always found that my face ended up in the carpet or on a hard wooden floor for some of my yoga postures while using a regular mat. It’s all changed now, 4 years of being stuck to a regular sized yoga mat has come to an end. With Pure Earth Collection’s large play/yoga mat I have the freedom to move as needed in my practice. The idea of it being biodegradable, non toxic, spongy (but firm) and easy to clean makes it the perfect mat.
