Tunturi Platinum EVA fitness mat 180 cm

The Tunturi Platinum EVA fitness mat is an extra-thick exercise mat measuring 180 x 60 cm for floor exercises in the gym, during group classes and for your own workouts at home. The 15 mm layer of EVA noticeably cushions your back, knees and elbows, while the mat stays firm enough to train on with stability. It is made for commercial use, so it is also suitable if you use the mat every day.

Tunturi Platinum EVA fitness mat at a glance

• 15 mm cushioning: a comfortable surface for ab exercises, core training, stretching and mobility work, without the mat feeling wobbly.
• Shape-retaining EVA: a resilient, hard-wearing material that keeps its shape and support, even with intensive use.
• Non-slip underside: a wave profile grips a range of floor types, so the mat stays in place.
• Textured top surface: a subtle pattern gives extra grip under your hands and feet.
• 180 x 60 cm: room to lie fully stretched out on your back, even if you are tall.
• Two metal hanging eyelets: hang the mat on a mat rack or wall rack after your workout to keep the floor clear.

Comfort and grip for floor exercises

At 15 mm thick, the mat gives you a clear layer between you and a hard floor. You notice this most in exercises where you rest on your knees, back or elbows, such as planks, crunches, bird dogs or a stretching routine after a run. Because EVA holds its shape, you do not sink in and you stay in control of your posture. Together, the wave profile on the underside and the texture on top stop the mat from shifting and keep you from slipping, even during a faster-paced core workout.

Made for the gym, also great at home

Tunturi developed the Platinum EVA fitness mat for commercial use in fitness clubs and group exercise studios. The EVA is moisture-resistant and easy to clean, which is useful when several people train on the same mat one after another. At home, it is a solid exercise mat if you train regularly and want something that can handle more than a thin yoga mat. Weighing 1.2 kg, the mat is easy to pick up to roll it up or hang it away.

Good to know

This mat is intended for floor exercises. If you are looking for a mat to place under a treadmill, cross trainer or other fitness machine, choose a dedicated protective floor mat instead. For yoga with lots of single-leg balance poses, a thinner yoga mat with more grip may feel more comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about the Tunturi Platinum EVA fitness mat

How thick is the Tunturi Platinum EVA fitness mat?

The mat is 15 mm (1.5 cm) thick. That is clearly thicker than an average yoga mat, giving you a comfortable layer underneath for exercises on your knees or back. Thanks to the shape-retaining EVA, the mat is still firm enough for standing exercises.

Is this fitness mat suitable for use in a gym?

Yes, the mat was developed for commercial use in fitness clubs and group classes. The EVA is hard-wearing, moisture-resistant and easy to clean. This makes the mat suitable even when it is used by different people every day.

How do I store the mat?

The mat has two metal hanging eyelets for hanging it on a mat rack or wall rack. This keeps the floor clear and lets the mats in a group studio hang neatly side by side. At home, you can also simply roll the mat up and keep it in a cupboard or under the bed.

How do I clean the mat?

Wipe the mat down with a damp cloth after your workout. EVA absorbs very little moisture, so sweat does not soak into the material and the mat dries quickly. Let it dry for a moment before you hang it up or roll it up.

Should I choose the 140 cm or the 180 cm mat?

At 180 cm, you can lie fully stretched out on the mat, even if you are tall. That is comfortable for exercises on your back, stretching and relaxation exercises at the end of a class. If you want a more compact mat mainly for planks, ab exercises and exercises on your knees, the 140 cm version is sufficient. Both versions are 60 cm wide and 15 mm thick.
