Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) off-gassing, Microplastic shedding from foam degradation and Mold and bacterial colonization on the Hugger Mugger and not on the Iyengar Yoga.
  • We flag Natural rubber latex allergen (if natural rubber composition) and Microplastic shedding from surface degradation on the Iyengar Yoga and not on the Hugger Mugger.
  • The Hugger Mugger is Closed-cell PVC foam base, natural rubber top surface where the Iyengar Yoga is Rubber (likely natural or synthetic rubber), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
