The TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer in English) mat combines comfort, durability and sustainability in one product. Made of an innovative material free of PVC, latex or other toxic substances, it is environmentally friendly and safe for both the environment and health. Its soft-touch, non-slip surface ensures excellent grip, even during strenuous exercise. In addition, TPE is light, moderately elastic and wear-resistant, ensuring a long service life. Waterproof and easy to clean, it is an ideal choice for anyone looking for a versatile, high-quality mat for sports or relaxation activities.

Designed to combine comfort and practicality, it is divided into 12 sections that fold easily, reducing the footprint from a large mat to a compact size of only 61 x 15 x 10 cm, perfect for transport and storage. With open dimensions of 183 x 61 cm and a thickness of 8 mm, it offers optimal support for all kinds of activities, from yoga to Pilates to the most intense floor exercises.

Its foldable design also allows partial use for specific exercises, such as mountain climbing, where it is necessary to keep the feet, and especially the shoes, off the mat.

Shoe soles are the enemy of mats, especially when performing exercises that require high grip and thus high friction and abrasion. The recommended models for this kind of situation, which will always result in a high degree of wear and tear, are code mats:  3024, 3025,  0400,  0400/1,  0401. We do not recommend model no. 3016, Specific for use without shoes, code 0407. The code mats 0403 e  0403/1 are short models, designed so that the shoes remain outside. Therefore, one must try to avoid contact between the mat and shoes as much as possible to limit wear.   All mats are manufactured from polymers in a rubbery state. Elasticity and softness characterise the different models in various ways, hence the comfort and pleasantness to the touch. The soles of sports shoes are also made from rubbery materials but, due to their function; sports on concrete floors, asphalt, wood, etc., adopt much harder and more abrasive materials. Materials, solutions and thicknesses, unsuitable for making mats. Therefore, the soles of shoes are inevitably the enemy of mats, especially if one performs exercises that result in high grip and therefore high rubbing. Mountain climbing type exercises, for example, immediately ruin any mat if one does not take care to keep one's feet off the equipment. It is not a question of quality and it is not even a question of time, but mainly a question of materials and the way you use them. Any mat model will show breakage and premature wear if used with footwear and improperly.
