Usage and Care
Caring for your Namazi mat is essential to ensure its longevity, performance and natural beauty. Namazi Mat is made of cork - a sustainable, eco-friendly material that offers a unique combination of grip, support, and antimicrobial properties. Follow these simple steps to keep your Namazi mat in excellent condition.
1. Clean the mat regularly:
It has been reported that the Prophet Mohammed (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "Cleanliness is half of faith" [Sahih Muslim 233]
Clean your Namazi mat regularly to remove dirt, sweat and oils. Use a gentle, natural cleaner specifically designed for cork mats. You can also create your own cleaner by mixing a solution of water and a few drops of mild, eco-friendly soap. Dampen a soft cloth with the solution and gently wipe down the surface of the mat.
Avoid using harsh chemicals, as they can damage the cork.
2. Dry thoroughly:
Allow your Namazi mat to air dry completely after cleaning. To speed up the process, gently pat dry with a clean towel. Make sure to lay the mat flat or hang it with the cork side facing out, away from direct sunlight. Avoid using a hairdryer or heater to dry the mat, as excessive heat can cause the cork to become brittle and crack.
3. Store properly:
Store your Namazi mat in a cool, dry place when not in use. To prevent any damage, do not roll the mat too tightly or place heavy objects on top of it. You can also use the carrying strap for convenient storage and transportation.
Important: Always roll your Namazi Mat with the cork side facing outwards.
