Inherently free of PVC and PU, the clesign Yoga Mat makes for a pioneering product in the fitness accessory industry, as it caters to the needs of the ever-growing audience of environmentally conscious consumers and yoga enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Commenting on the creation of the clesign Yoga Mat, the company&rsquo;s founder said &ldquo;My inspiration came from my memories of my grandparents&rsquo; beautiful backyard in Taiwan. However, it wasn&rsquo;t until 40 years later that we started researching how to create what came to be the clesign Yoga Mat. We sourced materials from three countries &#8211; Morocco, Southern Italy and Portugal &ndash; and performed testing for over 5 years. We even had professional yoga instructors try out our mat during their sessions, to assure its endurance during actual workout conditions. We&rsquo;re proud to say that the final result, has exceeded our expectations, and has gained a large following by yogis around the world.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In line with its environmentally-friendly principles, clesign&nbsp; &ldquo;plants a tree for every 2 clesign natural rubber mat sold, and a palm tree in Morocco for every 10 eco-polyurethane clesign professional yoga mat sold.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So far, the company has planted a total of 20,601 tress, while, the booming sales of its cornerstone products are sure to lead to even more tree plantings in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about Clesign, please visit: <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.clesignyoga.com\/\">http:\/\/www.clesignyoga.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style='font-size:18px !important;'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> CHARLOTTELIN INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS LIMITED<br \/><strong>Contact Person:<\/strong> CLESIGN Sustainable<br \/><strong>Email:<\/strong> info@clesign.com.hk<br \/><strong>Phone:<\/strong> +85235280807<br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> HongKong<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.clesignyoga.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/www.clesignyoga.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><object type=\"text\/html\" data=\"http:\/\/www.clesignyoga.com\/\" style=\"width:605px; height:400px;\"><\/object><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/press_stat.php?pr=clesign-yoga-introduces-environmentallysound-yoga-mat\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hong Kong&ndash; While one of the main principles of yoga is getting in touch with one&rsquo;s environment, and respecting nature, there is one ever-present component used throughout yoga practice that comes in direct conflict with these beliefs: the yoga mat. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/clesign-yoga-introduces-environmentallysound-yoga-mat_91796.html\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[401],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-91796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91796","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91796"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91796\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
