Discover the innovations that make Liforme Yoga Mats truly revolutionary

Warrior like-Grip

We believe our revolutionary GripForMe™ material is the grippiest Yoga mat material currently available on earth. It stays grippy even when ‘sweaty-wet’.

An innovative design layering natural rubber and our specially engineered unique (do not accept cheap imitations!) non-toxic eco-polyurethane provides the most stable and comfortable practice surface and ultimate grip even when sweaty wet, no towel necessary. One of our most technical challenges was finding the balance between excellent durability for yoga and efficient biodegradability after the end of its use-life. A Liforme mat ticks all the boxes: comfortable, stable, durable, eco-friendly, body-kind, and most definitely grippy.

The World’s First Yoga Mat Alignment System

The value of incorporating immediate, intuitive, visual alignment feedback into your Yoga practice cannot be overstated.

Liforme wasn’t the first to realize this, but we were the first to perfect a Yoga mat alignment system that really works. Have a look at the alignment mats that came before us and those that came after. Before, you would have seen grids, numbered circles, and footprints attempting to indicate exactly where to put your hands and feet.

These mats never caught on because they were so limiting. Every person is a different size, the proportions of every body are different, and there are many different styles and alignment philosophies within Yoga.

Our goal has always been flexibility. An alignment guide that works for all bodies, all types of Yoga, in class and at home, for beginners and long-time practitioners. When we debuted Liforme’s AlignForMe™ system, it looked like no other Yoga mat.

Since then, many imitators have appropriated the elements that make up our distinctive look: a vertical line down the centre, horizontal lines at both ends, 45-degree lines, and reverse points.

Before 2013, there were no Yoga mats that looked like ours. Now they are everywhere. That’s how you know we changed the game.

Vegan Certified, Biodegradable, PVC-free

At the time Liforme was founded, most yoga mats were made from PVC, a material that is highly ill-suited to Yoga: its surface is naturally slippery, low-end PVC mats fall apart quickly, and it doesn’t biodegrade efficiently or safely. Rubber offered a more sustainable option, but it isn’t the most pleasant practice surface.

Liforme set out to create a mat that is biodegradable, doesn’t harm the planet or your body, and provides the optimal combination of comfort, stability, and grip. This five-year process required a complete rethinking of existing Yoga mat materials and countless rounds of testing and reformulating until we found the right mix of performance and sustainability.

Liforme Yoga mats are also the first Yoga Mats to be Vegan certified demonstrating our commitment to the environment and alignment with the Yogic principle of Ahimsa (nonharm).

Eco-friendly, Non-toxic Materials

Liforme’s base layer takes advantage of the stability and renewability of natural rubber. Our very thin top layer is a smooth, cushiony, proprietary eco-polyurethane. In between, our patented CleanGrip® nonabsorbent barrier layer bonds without toxic glues and allows moisture to quickly evaporate from the top surface, keep your mat grippy and hygienic.

Many have appropriated Liforme’s look, but our imitators lack our commitment to environmental standards and fair labour and our dedication to innovation. When it comes to originality, performance and sustainability, Liforme is the one.

The Core Materials that make a Liforme Yoga Mat

One of our most technical challenges was finding the balance between excellent durability for Yoga and efficient biodegradability after the end of its use-life. This is why the top layer of our Yoga Mat is made from a specially engineered Eco-Polyurethane with an open cell structure that is both grippy, absorbent and biodegradable within 1-5 years!

All our Yoga Mats have a durable natural rubber base, which provides strong support, stability and cushioning for your practice.

Liforme only uses rubber that is sourced sustainably. We believe that rubber can and should be produced without clearing natural forests. When done responsibly, rubber production increases biodiversity and carbon sequestration, and reduces carbon dioxide emissions from deforestation.

Our mats are PVC-free, biodegradable in 1-5 years in normal landfill conditions and made using high-quality non-toxic materials. We spent 5 years developing the most planet-friendly Yoga mat using high-quality materials.

PVC’s resistance to degradation means that just about every Yoga mat ever made from it is still sitting in a landfill somewhere or releases harmful toxins when burnt.

Unique, Patented Three Layered Construction

We created an innovative, game-changing combination of materials which delivers the ultimate grip whilst keeping your mat hygienic at the very same time. Liforme’s base layer takes advantage of the stability and renewability of plant based natural rubber. Our very thin top layer is a smooth, cushiony, proprietary eco-polyurethane. In between, our patented CleanGrip® non-absorbent barrier layer bonds without toxic glues and allows the sweat and moisture to quickly evaporate from the top surface, providing the most grippy, comfortable and hygienic solution.


The History Of The Yoga Mat

Our Products Have Be Independently Assessed By World-renowned College

We want to be transparent and real about what our Yoga mats are made of which is why we’ve taken it a step further and commissioned an independent study from a leading polymer expert from Imperial College London - a global top ten university with a world-class reputation in science.
