BYOU Yoga Mat Care Guide - For PU Natural Rubber Mats

Your BYOU yoga mat is designed to support your practice with premium grip and durability. To keep it in top condition, follow these simple care tips:

Cleaning Your Mat

  1. After Each Use:

    • Wipe down the mat with a damp cloth to remove sweat and dirt.
    • For deeper cleaning, use a mild cleaning solution (water + a few drops of dish soap or yoga mat cleaner).
    • Avoid using harsh chemicals or oil-based cleaners, as they can damage the PU surface.

  2. How to Clean:

    • Spray or dampen the mat lightly with your cleaning solution.
    • Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth or sponge to gently clean the surface.
    • Wipe with a clean, damp cloth to remove residue, then let it air dry completely.

Storage Tips

  • Roll it Properly: Roll the mat with the PU (top) side facing out to prevent creases.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Store your mat in a cool, dry place away from sunlight or heat, as UV rays can degrade the rubber.
  • Use a Mat Bag: Protect your mat from dust and scratches by storing it in a yoga mat bag.

Do's and Don'ts

✔ Do:

  • Clean regularly to maintain the grip and longevity.
  • Allow the mat to air dry fully before rolling it up.
  • Practice barefoot to minimize dirt buildup.

✘ Don't:

  • Submerge the mat in water or machine wash.
  • Use oils or abrasive brushes to clean.
  • Leave it in a hot car or exposed to extreme temperatures.

Additional Care Tips

  • If your mat has a slight rubber scent initially, let it air out in a well-ventilated area for a day or two.
  • With proper care, your BYOU mat will stay as reliable and beautiful as the first day you unrolled it.

Stay mindful and intentional with every practice.
