Our responsibility for people and the environment
Good products are the result of conscious decisions. That’s why, for our yoga accessories, meditation products and yoga apparel, we focus on carefully selected materials, responsible manufacturing and long-lasting quality. The result: thoughtfully designed products that will accompany you in your practice for a long time.
We are certified: GOTS & controlled organic cotton.
For many of our yoga and meditation products, we use organic cotton from controlled organic farming and high-quality natural materials. Our organic cotton is certified accordingly (Organic certified by Kiwa BCS, License No. 25863). Whether it’s a yoga bolster or a meditation cushion – our aim is high-quality materials, careful craftsmanship and products that will accompany you in your practice for a long time. You can find out which certifications apply to a product directly on the respective product page.
What does GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) mean?
The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) defines requirements for the processing of textiles made from certified organic natural fibers. The standard covers criteria for various stages of textile processing—including specifications regarding the use of chemicals, wastewater treatment, working conditions, and occupational safety. Social criteria are also part of the standard. These include, among other things, requirements regarding wages and social benefits, working hours, and workplace health and safety. You can identify which of our products are GOTS-certified by the corresponding certification seals and the information provided in the product details on the respective product page. Organic certified by Kiwa BCS, License No. 25863.
Natural materials as the basis of our products
For our meditation range and our apparel, we mainly use natural materials, including organic cotton from controlled organic farming. Selected yoga mats also feature materials such as natural rubber or cork. When choosing materials, we focus on the properties that matter for each product and how it is used: organic cotton has a pleasantly soft feel and is particularly well suited to textiles and meditation products. Natural rubber is used in selected yoga mats and provides good grip for a stable practice. Cork stands out for its characteristic natural feel and pleasant surface. You can find transparent information on which materials are used in each product and which certifications apply in the product details on the respective product page.
Resource conservation through recycled content & durable quality
When developing our yoga accessories, we focus not only on the choice of materials but also on high-quality workmanship and the longest possible lifespan. Functionality and timeless design are at the heart of this – so that our products are made for long-term use in your yoga and meditation practice. For selected products, we also use materials with recycled content. You can find out which materials and how much recycled content each product contains in the product details on the respective product page.
Production in the EU – responsibility along the supply chain
A large share of our products is manufactured in Europe, including in Spain, Portugal and Germany. Working with selected production partners allows us to stay in close contact about materials, workmanship and product quality. Our MUDRA PRO yoga mat is made in Germany. We work closely with our production partner on its development and production, placing particular emphasis on functionality, workmanship and consistent product quality.
