01

Everyday Cleaning

A Simple Routine After Practice

After each practice, lightly wipe the cork surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove sweat, dust, and surface residue.

Allow the mat to air-dry completely before rolling or storing it.

FOR BEST RESULTS

  • Use cool or lukewarm water.
  • Wring out the cloth so it is damp, not soaking wet.
  • Wipe the mat gently without scrubbing.
  • Let both sides dry fully before storage.

02

Deeper Cleaning

When Your Mat NeedsExtra Care

For a more thorough cleaning, use a small amount of mild, manufacturer-approved cleaner on a damp cloth.

Wipe the mat evenly and remove any remaining cleaner with a second cloth dampened with water. Leave the mat unrolled until it is completely dry.

Avoid applying cleaner directly to the mat unless the product manufacturer confirms that it is safe for cork and natural rubber.

03

Drying Your Mat

Let It Breathe

Lay the mat flat or hang it in a well-ventilated indoor area after cleaning.

Avoid placing it near radiators, heaters, fireplaces, or other direct heat sources. Do not roll the mat until both the cork surface and rubber base are fully dry.

04

Rolling and Storage

Store It the Right Way

Roll the mat loosely rather than folding it. Folding may create creases or place unnecessary stress on the materials.

STORE YOUR MAT

  • In a cool, dry place.
  • Away from prolonged direct sunlight.
  • Away from sharp objects.
  • Only after it has dried completely.

05

Maintaining Your Mat

Small Habits Make a Difference

HELP EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR MAT BY

  • Practicing with clean hands and feet.
  • Removing shoes before stepping onto it.
  • Cleaning spills promptly.
  • Allowing it to dry after warm or high-sweat sessions.
  • Keeping it away from pets that may scratch or chew the surface.

Natural cork may develop subtle changes in color and texture with regular use. These variations are part of the character of a natural material and do not necessarily indicate a defect.
