Do your mats contain Phthalates


We require our manufacturing partners to test the vinyl in our Exercise and Gymnastics mats and Skill Shapers. They test for the presence of Phthalates according to CPSIA standards in the US.  

The CPSIA limit for Phthalates concentration is 0.01%.  
The test is sensitive enough to detect levels as low as 0.03%-0.01%.  

When our vinyl was tested there were no Phthalates detected.   Based on the test results, we describe our mats as being "Phthalate Free".
