Born from the love of yoga and gratitude for our beautiful earth

about us

At 3rdPlanetYoga we believe nothing offers more profound support for your mind, body & soul than the practice of yoga. To celebrate this practice we created a holistic range of earth-friendly, quality products to support your yogic journey to wholeness.

Yoga practice provides the tools to nurture a change in your consciousness and make positive changes on every level; even the smallest of changes can help restore the natural balance, both within & without.

We only have one planet, so we need to look after it. As an extension of our journey to wholeness we only sell products that support the environment:

3rd Planet Yoga products are 100% Eco-friendly. Our flagship product, the Go-Eco Yoga Mat, biodegrades into nothing but water and decomposable particles. The mat is constructed using ‘closed cell’ TPE technology, ensuring that bacteria and odour cannot penetrate its surface, while at the same time being environmentally friendly.

Why we use TPE

  • TPE stands for Thermo-Plastic Elastomer, a super hygenic non-porous material constructed from closed cell TPE technology.

  • This technology ensures that bacteria & odour can’t penetrate the mats surface, making it extra easy to use & clean.

  • 100% recyclable & none toxic, TPE is also designed to decompose in landfills, leaving behind only water & biodegradable particles.

  • TPE is latex-free and therefore suitable for the growing number of people with latex allergies.

  • TPE is an exceptionally elastic, lightweight, and durable material, making it hard to find a better construct for a yoga mat!
