I love this cork yoga mat. it has a lovely warm living feel to it, it is generously proportioned and it is just the right firmness. i will never return to synthetic yoga mats. thank you Cork Space.
This mat is made of natural materiel. Very soft, no smell and very beautiful design. It is my first cork mat and I love it!
It's really nice. Feels lovely and soft, and much more grippy than my old one. The markings are great for alignment, too.
Absolutely love my Moon yoga mat! When the light hits it a certain way the moon motifs shine golden! It’s also a very well made, sustainable, and practical mat, and comfortable to practice on. My first purchase from Cork Space and won’t be my last, thank you!
I did a lot of research into yoga mats made from natural materials that would be biodegradable. The cork is great for hot yoga classes. Much better grip during the class. Feels much better practising on a natural yoga mat instead of synthetic. Beautiful design, sustainably made with a donation and tress planted for each purchase. What's not to love?!
Such a gorgeous & grippy mat! The gold chakra detail is stunning & shines so beautifully in the light! I’d never tried a cork mat before so I was apprehensive about how grippy it would be, but WOW it is sooo grippy & I’m so impressed! I really really love my new mat! The customer service was so fast & friendly & I would DEFINITELY recommend this company & their beautiful mats! 🙏🏼✨
Thank you for the beautiful mat! Not only does it look wonderful, it feels great under my feet and the alignment lines are super helpful for when I'm practicing my pilates and want to correct my alignment. It's the nicest yoga mat I've had and the fact it is sustainably made ticks all the boxes. Love it!
Quality! The cork gives a lot more control when compared with the typical mat. Making great use of the alignment lines. And the rubber back means it simply does not shift an inch.
The customer service is amazing! Super responsive while I had some delivery issues and I could tell they really cared that I received my mat - which is AMAZING quality. Very happy with my purchase! :)

I’ve tried a few yoga mats over the years, but this cork space mat really stands out. Not only does it tick all the sustainability boxes for me, which is hugely important, but it actually performs where it matters too.
The non-slip grip is brilliant, even in a Bikram class in a seriously hot room — no sliding around or readjusting, just a really grounded, secure feel throughout.
And what surprised me most is the value for money. Compared to other brands I’ve used, this feels like a much smarter investment without compromising on quality.
I absolutely love my cork yoga mat. I wish I had got one sooner rather than having used a TPE mat for years. The only reason I didn’t give the fifth star is because it does move ever so slightly, but I think that’s probably more the rug in the room I yoga/pilates in rather than the mat :)
It's really soft, I feel supported, easy to clean and most importantly I don't slide on it and I sweat a lot. Only downside would be it's really heavy, but it's not a problem for me.
This mat is a joy to use and beautifully made. A huge upgrade from the mats at my gym, in every way!
Great service
Beautiful mat packaged carefully
Just as I expected, beautifully made and worth all the money. After buying so many exercise mats over the years I’m so happy to have a Yoga mat for life!
beautiful mat!
Great mat. I've had a lot of comments on 5he mat. Really comfortable for pilates and yoga. I love it. X
Beautiful, natural and functional
A beautiful Butter soft mat, very grippy, wish I’d bought the thicker one though as the middle thickness one which I purchased just feels a bit too thin on a hard wooden floor. Still Lush though
Love my new mat .. I have used a different high end yoga mat and sadly it did not live up to its promise but my cork mat feels really good and comfortable makes my practice far more enjoyable
Great thanks, excellent grip and lovely to use, it is a little heavy but i like the fact its all natural
So much comfort and joy to do my yoga class, thank you
I love my new cork yoga mat, it is super grippy, looks and feels great and is easy to carry around with the strap.

Sustainable Cork
Cork is a natural raw material which is 100% biodegradable, recyclable and renewable. Our cork bark is sustainably harvested in Portugal from the Cork Oak Tree without harming or cutting down any trees – that regularly grow to the wise old age of 300 years.
Ultimate Grip
Cork contains a magical waxy compound called Suberin - which activates when wet - giving you powerful resistance and grip. The more you sweat - the more you grip. Cork offers a beautiful soft-touch, non-sticky grip.
Perfect Balance
We’ve combined the recycled tree bark of Portuguese cork trees with the natural sap of the rubber tree to create the perfect combination of grip and bounce. Our mats are buttery soft to touch yet firm enough to protect your joints & keep you focused. Cork is filled with millions of pockets of air, which bounce right back when compressed.
Natural Tree Rubber
The base of our mats is made from natural rubber – Sourced in Vietnam from the tree sap of the Hevea Brasiliensis tree a 100% renewable resource that is hand tapped from living rubber trees.
A weighty rubber layer prevents corner rolling, sliding and offers protective & firm cushioning for your joints, no matter how demanding your yoga practice gets.
100 Day Yogi Trial
We want you to be completely in love with your new cork yoga mat. If you feel good, we feel good.
Here’s the deal – Use your mat for 100 days straight! If it’s not the best yoga mat you’ve ever used (or for any other reason whatsoever) just send it back and we’ll refund you in full the day we receive it. No questions asked. Sounds fair?
Seriously – There’s ZERO risk on your part. If you don’t like it (pretty rare) we take the loss for you.

FAQ
How Flexible is Cork
The cork layer is made from tiny bits of compressed cork pieces bonded to a rubber base, this makes the mat super flexible across uneven ground and easy to roll up.
Why Choose Cork Space over Cheaper Alternatives?
Although at first glance they may appear similar, cheaper cork mats that use TPE or PER as they base are not as durable or sustainable. Poorer quality cork can also be more prone to chipping off. Many wonder why they didn’t invest in a better mat (that makes them smile every time) years ago.
Is Cork Sustainable?
Cork is a sustainable material because it can be harvested every 10 to 12 years and replaced with new bark. It also has a low carbon footprint, as the trees are not cut down in order to harvest the cork.
Demand for cork provides much needed investment in the industry, providing jobs and supporting the local economy. The harvesting of cork is a sustainable practice. While cork bark is regrowing, the trees suck up even more CO2 from the surrounding environment which helps combat global warming.
Suitable For Hot Yoga?
Yes – absolutely. It can handle any amount of sweat you can throw at it. Just lay it out flat to dry when you’re home. When wet the cork goes darker.
How Long Is Delivery?
Physical delivery is available within the UK only, including Northern Ireland. UK delivery usually takes 1–3 working days after dispatch. We aim to dispatch orders within 1 working day. Delivery charges are shown at checkout.
What Is Your Gurarantee?
Love it or return it within 100 days for a full refund.
What Styles Of Yoga Is Cork Space Suited To?
It can be used with any style of yoga. Practitioners of restorative, meditation or yin yoga styles particularly love its natural feel. While faster Vinyasa styles of yogis love the sweat grip cork provides and the padding of the natural rubber.
Can I Use This For Pilates Or Workouts?
Absolutely, Cork Space is for your daily movement practice. From pilates to home workouts – the mat is there for you.
Which Mat is for Me?
We have a mat for everyone. The Pro is our thickest mat which offers unrivalled padding. Our Balance is our perfect mid-weight mat designed for everyone. The Air is thinner and lighter for closer to the ground feel.
