The Organic Yoga Props You Need to Create That Studio Vibe You’ve Been Wanting

Yoga lovers, pay attention: Unless you are using organic yoga products and props, your practice (no matter how OM-azing it makes you feel), is harming the planet. Because yoga has become so consumer-centric over the past decade, even the most well-meaning students, teachers, and studio owners can be contributing to some pretty serious issues, including environmental pollution.

Yoga Props

Aware of the problem, Ekotex Yoga, the family-run supplier based in Edinburgh, Scotland, is on a mission to change the way yoga products are created. Recently featured in the pages of Vogue, this forward-thinking brand provides organic yoga mats, props, and accessories to conscious yogis around the globe. The brand, which began in 2017, focuses on using organic materials to create products that feel great to the touch, outlast the competition, and do their part to reduce environmental contamination.

Organic Yoga Props Sandbags Bolsters and Blankets

Intelligently designing each and every product, from bolsters and cushions to sticky mats and blankets, Ekotex Yoga is fighting the contradictions so often present within the yoga industry. In fact, the majority of yoga mats used around the world are created from virgin plastic, which means every time a yoga mat is bought, more plastic is being put into the world. (And, newsflash, plastic doesn’t just go away once it’s made.)

Yoga Studio Props Professional Equipment

Committed to being genuinely environmentally friendly, Ekotex Yoga strives to choose natural alternatives that also happen to be cost-effective and comfortable. Rather than using PVC, PER (poly environmental-resin) is chosen instead. Everywhere possible, Ekotex Yoga opts for the conscious, environmentally intelligent choice – you’ll find recyclable tapes, recycled paper and in-warehouse LED lighting.
