Sage&KoKoa

Sage&KoKoa is the brainchild of Klaudia Martins and Ion Volosciuc.

Klaudia being a seasoned Yogi and a sustainability champion wanted to make the difference in a world filled with toxic yoga mats made out of plastic.

Being Portuguese, the choice for the material was quite obvious. Growing up surrounded by ancient Cork Oak Trees, it was only natural that cork was going to be what we were going to use in our mats.

After months of research and development, we created the perfect environmentally friendly yoga mat.

Our mats are made out of 100% Portuguese Cork and Natural Rubber, in northern Portugal.

Cork is one the most versatile materials in the world. The trees aren’t harmed in the process, allowing the harvested cork to grow back, contributing for even larger absorption of CO2. Cork is hypoallergenic, absorbent, fire resistant and anti-slip, which is a very important part for a Yogi.

Sustainability is at our core, hence all of our products contain zero plastic. The packaging of the products has no plastic also. The transportation of our products is done by trucks and not by sea or plane, reducing our carbon footprint.

Although we cannot delete our carbon footprint totally, we are carbon neutral.

For every mat sold we donate £2.50 to TreeAid, which plants trees in Africa, contributing to the creation of the Great Green Wall and reducing desertification and hunger in sub-Saharan countries.

We also donate 5% of all sales to PlasticOceans UK to help clean the Oceans from plastic as well 5% to YoungMinds UK to help fight mental health issues in young people.

When purchasing any of Sage&KoKoa products, you won’t be only enhancing your asanas and connecting you daily practice to Nature, you will be helping to create a better future for the upcoming generations.
