Ethical Practices
Valka Yoga embraces ethical practices by using natural materials, primarily organic cork, cotton and natural rubber for most of their products. Their mats are made from biodegradable Polyurethane and natural rubber and are free from PVC, latex and toxic materials, making them 100% vegan. The mats are manufactured in China under strict labour and environmental standards, with regular audits to ensure fair wages and safe working conditions.
Sustainable Practices
Valka Yoga prioritises sustainability by using natural materials in their products and partnering with the EarthLungs Reforestation Foundation to plant a tree with each mat purchase, which also offsets 3kg of CO2 through Global Climate Action. They utilise plastic-free, recyclable packaging and ensure that their production partners adhere to low-waste manufacturing processes. The brand aims to minimise its environmental footprint at every stage, from materials and design to packaging and post-sale impact.
Social Impact
Valka Yoga actively supports local and global communities by planting a tree for every mat sold, in partnership with a reforestation partner, to help combat climate change. The brand collaborates with local organisations to host free yoga and wellness events that enhance mental and physical well-being, particularly for underserved communities. The brand also prioritises working with small, ethical suppliers that align with its values and regularly donates a portion of its profits to charities focused on mental health and environmental conservation.
Product Reviews by Experts
A visually beautiful, soft and high quality yoga mat. I love the minimalist celestial design, the thickness of the mat provides the right amount of support and comfort. This mat is a generous size and functionally performs well- I appreciate it stays flat on the floor even after being rolled up too! Being free from toxic dyes and PVC, I appreciate the effort in seeking out materials that are sustainable (such as natural rubber, cork and biodegradable Polyurethane), without compromising the quality and durability of the mat.
I have very much enjoyed practising on this mat as I honour my own alignment during the changing phases of the moon. This is a very beautiful mat to use- soft to the touch, but perfectly grippy, enough padding with thickness, but not too heavy to carry to a class. I also appreciate that a tree is planted for every mat sold and that Valka Yoga also supports other charities.
The materials in this yoga mat are vegan and sustainably sourced. The design is beautiful, the texture is lovely and the grip is excellent- a perfect blend of ethics and functionality. This brand also clearly values transparency around social and environmental responsibility, providing detailed information about product composition and origin.
