FAQs
What materials is the Carpatree Cloud Yoga Mat made from?
The mat is made from Microfibre and Synthetic Rubber Foam, featuring a double-layered, elastic, plush fabric.
How do I clean the yoga mat?
Wipe with a damp cloth after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap diluted in water, followed by a damp cloth. Always air dry completely.
Is this mat suitable for hot yoga?
While the mat is moisture-wicking and sweat-resistant, it may become slippery during intense hot yoga sessions. Consider using a yoga towel for added grip.
How thick is the mat?
The product description mentions a 'Thick Bottom Layer' for stability, but specific thickness is not provided. It prioritizes plushness and cushioning.
Can I machine wash this mat?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the fabric technology and foam structure. Hand-clean only with a damp cloth and mild soap.
What are the dimensions of the mat?
The mat measures 180cm in length and 60cm in width.
Does the mat have a strong chemical smell?
New mats may have a slight odor from manufacturing. It is recommended to air it out in a well-ventilated area before use, and the smell should dissipate.
Troubleshooting
Mat smells strongly upon arrival
Unroll the mat in a well-ventilated area and allow it to air out for 24-48 hours. The smell is typical for new foam products and will dissipate.
Mat is not lying flat
Ensure the mat is fully unrolled and has been left to air out. Laying it flat in a warm room for a few hours can also help it settle. Heavy books can be placed on the corners temporarily if needed.
Surface feels slippery
Ensure the mat is clean and free from oils or lotions. For new users, a light mist of water can sometimes improve initial grip. For excessive sweat, consider a yoga towel.
Fabric is peeling or damaged
Cease use of harsh cleaning agents. Consult the care instructions for proper cleaning. If damage is significant, it may indicate wear and tear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Unroll the mat completely in a well-ventilated area before first use to allow any residual manufacturing odors to dissipate. Lay it flat on your desired practice surface.
Compatibility: This mat is compatible with most indoor yoga and exercise environments. It is suitable for home, studio, or travel use.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth. For a deeper clean, use a mild soap diluted in water, and wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive water, as this can damage the fabric and foam.
- Drying: Always air dry the mat completely before rolling it up. Lay it flat or hang it over a yoga mat rack. Do not expose it to direct sunlight for extended periods or use heat to dry it, as this can degrade the material.
- Storage: Store the mat loosely rolled with the fabric side facing outwards, in a cool, dry place. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of the rolled mat to prevent permanent creasing.
