The table above covers both materials. These are the five points that actually decide it, and the answer we would give you on a call.两种材质都在上面的总表里。下面这五点才是真正决定选择的地方,也是你在电话里会从我们口中得到的答复。

Point对比项PVCTPE
Plasticisers, and odour when the mat is unrolled增塑剂,以及垫子展开时的气味 Contains plasticisers unless you specify otherwise, and the smell fades but rarely disappears.除非特别指定,否则含增塑剂;气味会变淡,但很少彻底散尽。 Contains no plasticisers and no phthalates, and the mat has no smell when it is unrolled.不含增塑剂、不含邻苯类物质,垫子展开时也没有气味。
Weight for the same mat size同尺寸的重量 The denser compound, so a mat of the same size weighs more.料本身密度更高,所以同尺寸更重。 A 6 mm 183 × 61 cm mat weighs about 1.1 kg, which keeps freight per unit down.6 mm、183 × 61 cm 约 1.1 kg,单件运费更省。

Short version: PVC is the cheaper and more abrasion-resistant material, and TPE is the one that contains no plasticisers. Both are dry-grip products, so neither of them is a hot-yoga answer — that is PU on rubber. The only reason to choose PVC in 2026 is a price point that leaves no room for TPE, and TPE is the only one of the two that can be recycled at end of life. We make both, so we quote whichever you ask for; and we will tell you when PVC is going to fail your buyer's procurement, because a refused shipment costs more than the material saving.一句话:PVC 更便宜、更耐磨,TPE 是不含增塑剂的那个。两者都是干手产品,所以都不是高温瑜伽的答案 —— 那是 PU 橡胶。到了 2026 年,选 PVC 的唯一理由就是那个价格带容不下 TPE;而两者中只有 TPE 能在报废后回收。两种我们都做,你要哪种我们就报哪种;但如果 PVC 会卡在你买家的采购环节上,我们也会直说,因为一批被拒收的货,比省下的料钱贵得多。

Material by material逐种材质

What each material is actually like in the hand每种材质上手到底是什么样

Written from what our own production lines see, including the failure modes — because the failure modes are what decide your return rate.写的是我们自己产线上看到的情况,包括踩坑点 —— 因为踩坑点决定你的退货率。

TPE — the defaultTPE —— 默认选择

Eco TPE, single or double layer环保 TPE,单层或双层
Feel触感
Soft, slightly tacky, warm to the touch — most people's idea of what a yoga mat feels like.柔软、微涩、上手温润 —— 大多数人印象里「瑜伽垫该有的手感」。
Grip防滑
Dry grip is excellent. Wet grip is fair: fine for general and hatha classes, not ideal for hot yoga.干手防滑优秀。湿手一般:常规课与哈他课没问题,高温瑜伽不理想。
Watch out注意
Density varies a lot between suppliers. A cheap TPE mat flattens within months — ask for the density, not just the material name.不同供应商的密度差别很大。低价 TPE 垫几个月就塌 —— 要问密度,不能只问材质名。
OEM定制
Widths 61 / 66 / 80 / 90 cm, 4–12 mm, single or double layer, dual-colour, embossed logo, printed strap and retail box.宽度 61 / 66 / 80 / 90 cm、4–12 mm、单层或双层、双色、压印 Logo、印花背带与彩盒。

PU + natural rubber — the grip benchmarkPU + 天然橡胶 —— 防滑基准

Moisture-absorbing top on a rubber base吸湿 PU 面层 + 橡胶底
Feel触感
Matte or suede-feel top, firm and dense — reads as a premium product the moment it is unrolled.磨砂或绒感面层,扎实致密 —— 一展开就有高端感。
Grip防滑
Gets grippier as it gets wet. This is the only family that stays safe in a 38°C hot-yoga room.越湿越防滑。这是唯一能在 38°C 高温瑜伽房里保持安全的一类。
Watch out注意
Heavier than TPE, so freight per unit is higher, and the rubber base needs to be natural rubber — some suppliers substitute reclaimed rubber and grip suffers.比 TPE 重,单件运费更高;橡胶底必须是天然橡胶 —— 有些供应商用再生胶替代,防滑会明显变差。
OEM定制
1.5–5 mm, alignment lines, matte or suede finish, HD printing, laser-engraved logo, travel-mat builds at 1.5 mm.1.5–5 mm、体位线、磨砂或绒面、高清印花、激光雕刻 Logo,另有 1.5 mm 旅行款。

Suede & cork — for brands that sell on looks麂皮与软木 —— 卖给「看起来好」的品牌

Print-first surfaces以印花为核心的面层
Feel触感
Suede is soft and cloth-like; cork is warm, dry and slightly textured. Neither feels like a commodity mat.麂皮柔软似布;软木温润干爽、带细微纹理。两者都不像通货垫。
Grip防滑
Both grip better once slightly damp — the opposite behaviour to PVC, and the reason they suit vinyasa and hot classes.两者都是微湿后更防滑 —— 与 PVC 相反,也是它们适合流瑜伽与高温课的原因。
Watch out注意
Suede needs washing before first use to activate grip; cork dislikes being left in direct sun. Tell your customers, or you will get returns.麂皮首次使用前需清洗以激活防滑;软木不耐长时间日晒。这两点要写进产品说明,否则会招来退货。
OEM定制
Full-surface HD printing on suede; laser engraving and screen print on cork. Base can be rubber, TPE or a foldable build.麂皮可整面高清印花;软木做激光雕刻与丝印。底层可选橡胶、TPE 或可折叠结构。

PVC & NBR — still the right answer sometimesPVC 与 NBR —— 有时仍是正确答案

Cost-led and cushioning-led builds以成本或缓冲为导向的方案
Feel触感
PVC is firm and glassy in cheap grades; NBR is thick and spongy and sinks under a knee.低价 PVC 硬而发亮;NBR 厚而绵软,膝盖会陷进去。
Grip防滑
Both are dry-grip products. NBR in particular becomes slippery when wet — do not sell it into hot yoga.两者都是干手产品。尤其 NBR 遇水变滑 —— 不要卖进高温瑜伽渠道。
Watch out注意
PVC plasticiser odour and non-recyclability now fail procurement at many retailers and most hotels. We will still quote it, but we will say so when it is the wrong call.PVC 的增塑剂气味与不可回收,已经让它在不少零售商与多数酒店的采购环节过不了。我们照样可以报价,但如果这是错的选择我们会直说。
OEM定制
Both take embossing and dual-colour. NBR is limited to emboss only — do not plan a printed design on it.两者都能压印与双色。NBR 基本只能压印 —— 不要在上面做印花设计。
Certifications & testing认证与检测

What the paperwork covers这套资料覆盖什么

Test reports are issued per material and colour, and we will tell you which tests your specific market and marketplace require rather than sending a generic pack.材质通过 ROHS、CE 与 REACH 检测;工厂持有 ISO 9001 与 BSCI 审核,并有 SGS 第三方检测。检测报告按材质与颜色出具。我们会告诉你你的目标市场与平台具体需要哪些测试,而不是发一份通用资料包了事。

FAQ常见问题

Material questions buyers actually ask买家真正会问的材质问题

Which yoga mat material is best?哪种瑜伽垫材质最好?
There is no single best — it depends on the class. TPE for general practice and eco positioning, PU + natural rubber for hot yoga and professional studios, suede or cork for branded and design-led collections, NBR when thick cushioning matters more than grip. Tell us the class type and the retail price band and we will recommend one.没有绝对最好的,取决于课程类型。常规练习与环保定位选 TPE;高温瑜伽与专业馆选 PU + 天然橡胶;品牌联名与设计驱动选麂皮或软木;缓冲比防滑更重要时选 NBR。告诉我们课程类型与零售价带,我们给出具体建议。
Is TPE really more eco-friendly than PVC?TPE 真的比 PVC 更环保吗?
Yes, verifiably: TPE is closed-cell, free of phthalate plasticisers, and recyclable at end of life; PVC contains plasticisers, cannot be recycled in practice and is the reason some retailers refuse mats on sustainability grounds. TPE also has no material odour, which matters for hotels and for unboxing reviews.可以验证:TPE 是闭孔结构、不含邻苯类增塑剂、报废后可回收;PVC 含增塑剂、实际上无法回收,这正是部分零售商以可持续为由拒收的原因。TPE 另外没有材质气味,这对酒店采购与开箱评价都重要。
How thick should a yoga mat be?瑜伽垫该选多厚?
6 mm is the volume standard for general practice. 4–5 mm is the studio and travel preference (better balance, easier to carry). 8–12 mm is for comfort-led, rehab and floor-exercise use. Over 12 mm the mat becomes unstable in standing poses, which is why we do not recommend it for serious practice.常规练习的走量标准是 6 mm。专业馆与旅行更偏 4–5 mm(平衡更好、易携带)。8–12 mm 用于舒适导向、康复与垫上体操。超过 12 mm 站立体式会不稳,所以我们不建议用于正经练习。
Can you send samples of several materials to compare?能寄几种材质的样品让我对比吗?
Yes. Tell us the materials and thicknesses you are considering and we send physical samples in the same size, with your logo on them, in about 7 days. Buyers usually compare TPE against PU + rubber and decide in the hand rather than on a spec sheet — which is the right way to decide.可以。告诉我们你在考虑的材质与厚度,我们做成同尺寸、带你 Logo 的实物样品,约 7 天寄出。买家通常是拿 TPE 和 PU + 橡胶上手比,而不是看规格表 —— 这本来就是更靠谱的决策方式。
