What you give, you receive ten-fold.

Recycle Your Mat started with the hope of supporting the entire yoga industry. Of course, we could not serve an entire industry without the support of those in the industry. Lucky for us, it wasn't long before yoga product companies rallied around in support of our mission.

We encourage support of the following organizations that work in numerous ways each day to create a cleaner industry. 


Within weeks of starting Recycle Your Mat, Manduka reached out in support of our mission. From advice to industry insight to the countless hours their staff have worked to support Recycle Your Mat, we are forever grateful. It's this continuting effort and support that is the reason Recycle Your Mat chooses to promote Manduka in a number of ways.







Hugger Mugger has provided insight into the challenges of yoga mat recycling. They were the first to include Recycle Your Mat information in their packaging. In 2010 they began including the Recycle Your Mat logo on mat packaging to educate yogis about our service.


Kulae is a newcomer to the industry and is committed to selling only environmentally friendly mats. A company with a socially responsible focus, Kulae holds true to the idea of what goes around, comes around. As two companies looking to continue to grow sustainably, we're looking forward to continuing to share lessons learned.




A wonderful company run by a wonderful woman. If we were mothers, we're pretty sure we'd want to be just like Katy. Her efforts to green the yoga industry are much larger than her company and she proves it only takes one person to make a big impact.




Since we began speaking with Mandala last year they have altered their waste disposal to include reuse of scraps of mat left over after producing their large circular mats. With their waste stream narrowed, they set a great example of how creative thinking can bring about significant change for the better.


Embrace Activism is a wonderful example of providing consumers with goods that can benefit causes the consumer cares about. A great model for retailers that wish to provide their consumers an opportunity to fulfill their need as well as the need of others with every purchase.



Whether late at night or on the weekend, the members of the Green Yoga Association are happy to share their passion and brainstorm how we can work together to keep greening the industry.



The European Yoga Network tackled yoga industry waste far before anyone else did. Their unique way of sharing info and providing mat reuse is a great example of utilizing local communities to tackle a global cause. If we only did mat donation, we'd do it just like them.



We admire Love Peace Yoga for highlighting the very best in the yoga community and beyond. By featuring people and products that stand for good it's a nice dose of positivity and way to spread the good work happening in your community and around the world.



In Mexico, Davanna Yoga is helping tackle a persistent local problem. With many mats left behind from vacationing tourists or part-time residents, they have found a creative way to reuse the mats and thus minimizing waste.
