Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Natural rubber latex allergen (if natural rubber composition) and Microplastic shedding from surface degradation on the Iyengar Yoga and not on the Tpe Yoga Mat.
  • We flag Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) off-gassing, Microplastic shedding and Mold or bacterial growth if moisture-trapped on the Tpe Yoga Mat and not on the Iyengar Yoga.
  • The Iyengar Yoga is Rubber (likely natural or synthetic rubber) where the Tpe Yoga Mat is TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), 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 →
