Shipping
For in-stock items, please allow 1-3 business days for processing. We take this time to make sure that we pack with care and accuracy. Business days exclude North American holidays and weekends.
For "pre-order" items: they are shipped out around the estimated date that is stated under the product description.
Shipping varies according to where you are shipping. You will be able to see an estimated transit time at checkout before payment. You can also check our shipping details page for estimated timelines. Shipping transit times are only estimates however and are not a guarantee, as delays by couriers may happen that are out of our control.
Pre-order means you are ordering an item that is not currently available, in advance. We state an item is a "pre-order" on the product title, product description, a note at checkout to best communicate this to our customers. The date stated in product description or not, is the estimated day of shipping.
Yes - If your order has both a pre-order and in-stock item(s), the order will be held until it is all available to ship together. If you want in-stock items before your pre-order is ready, please order separately in two separate orders. Shipping would apply for each order separately, as they would be split up.

Product: Yoga Mats
Cork is anti-microbial, so there is no need to worry about germs, mold or mildew forming and no need to clean regularly, the cork sanitizes itself naturally. After practice, lay the mat flat to air dry. If there is dirt or body oils, wipe the mat down with a wet soft cloth with warm water. Every once in a while you can use mild soap with water before stains settle. And please DO NOT put your Scoria yoga mat in the washing machine.
Your yoga mat may have a mild rubber smell. After around 3-5 practices the smell will go away. You can lay the mat flat in a shaded area to air out after unpacking.
The cork grains are bonded by light, water based eco adhesives to a natural base cloth under high temperature between natural rubber and cork. We use high temperature to make use of the already sticky quality of the natural latex in the rubber. No harsh or unsafe glues are used.
We use water-based non-toxic inks safe for the skin and breathing.
Cork loves heat, warmth, water and sweat. Our cork mats are functionally amazing in hot yoga as they will grip in the sweatiest of practice. The grip is activated when the body is warm and palms are sweaty. We encourage you to spray the mat with water until the body warms up. Another suggestion is to take your practice to a warmer room or a more enclosed area that can capture more humidity or heat; or to start the practice by exhaling into the fists to warm them up and closing the fists during your opening meditation.
No, no trees are cut down or harmed in the making of the mats. The cork is stripped from the tree after maturation (around 26 years), and is stripped again after every 9-12 years. The stripping of the cork is a sustainable process that allows cork to regenerate on the tree and unlike the myth of cork being endangered, it actually helps the process of producing more cork for the trees.
Unfortunately we do not customize one-of yoga mats at this time. However, we do accept customization for bulk orders. If you are looking to make a custom wholesale order, please contact us at support@scoriaworld.com for more information. Our customization orders must meet a minimum quantity and are discounted as well for bulk pricing.
