With yoga mats being no stranger to the fitness market, Scoria aims to offer a design that is distinct from its many competitors.
Rather than featuring simple monochrome colors on its mats, the Scoria brand offers quirky designs that were inspired by children's drawings and stories – which the designer was able to obtain due to her work as an art teacher. The mats feature quirky images that include landscapes, doorways, and fish. Their materials are made up of natural rubber, and a strong and biodegradable cork surface. They also do not contain glue or latex, which ensures that they are usable by anyone who has allergies or sensitivities to those ingredients.
Scoria yoga mats are able to distinguish themselves in an overrun market with their unique designs and environmentally friendly makeup.
