livasia
Kapok roll mat

The Kapok roll mat from livasia is a compact all-round mat for indoor and outdoor use. It impresses with its versatility, whether as a yoga mat, meditation mat, guest bed or as a comfortable lying surface for balconies and camping. Thanks to its robust construction and filling of 100% kapok, a natural plant down, the mat is not only comfortable, but also an environmentally friendly and sustainable solution for anyone who values quality and sustainability . One major advantage is its ease of use: the mat can be rolled up to save space and stored away easily. The disadvantage is that the mat is less suitable for very hard or uneven floors due to its low thickness of 4.5 cm. For people who prefer particularly soft padding, the Kapok roll mat may be too firm.

  • Versatile in use
  • Sustainable materials
  • Space-saving
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Low thickness
  • Upholstery very hard

The test

General information

We took a close look at and tested the product in a practical test. In the following, we take a closer look at the features and impressions. From the packaging, materials and quality to the range of functions and handling, the product is subjected to our test procedure.

To give you a quick overview, we work with a points system. The maximum achievable score per area is 100 points. The final overall score is calculated from the average of all tested features, taking into account the respective weighting. For a detailed insight into our comprehensive evaluation process, which forms the basis of all our product ratings, please click here.

The first impression

Packaging and contents

Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

The roll mat is available in many different colours and patterns . This gives the mat an individual touch and underlines the recognisability of the brand.
The workmanship of the roll mat is clean and precise. All seams are carefully executed, which indicates high quality and durability . The use of high-quality materials is evident and contributes to the overall robust and hard-wearing nature of the mat. The dimensionally stable mat offers a reliable,durable and hard-wearing surface to lie on.
The cover is made of hard-wearing cotton and the filling is made of pure, untreated kapok. The filling has a moisture and temperature-insulating effect and keeps the cold off the floor.
Unfilled, the mat measures approx. 210x52x4.5 cm and offers space for a small to medium-sized person. The use of high-quality materials and the careful workmanship mean that a long service life can be expected.

The mats are handmade in Thailand in family businesses without middlemen. There are many different types of mattresses (folding mattresses, roll mattresses, pillows…).

Our practical test of the Kapok roll mat from livasia shows that the mat delivers what the manufacturer promises. We were unable to identify any weaknesses in terms of tear resistance : The mat remains completely intact even under high loads and shows no cracks or visible damage.
The compressive strength also leaves nothing to be desired. After removing an applied weight, the mat showed no visible deformations or indentations. The original shape remained completely intact, which speaks for the high quality of the materials used.

Another positive aspect is the thermal insulation of the kapok roll mat. The test showed a minimal temperature rise of less than 1°C, which is still a very good insulating performance. This property makes the mat particularly attractive for use on cold floors or outdoors. In addition, the kapok roll mat is odour-free from the outset, which sets it apart from many other mats on the market. No unpleasant odour was detected in any of the tests carried out.

The mat also scores points for its environmentally friendly production: it is made from 100% recyclable materials and the packaging, filling and cover are also easily recyclable. Production takes place under ecologically and socially responsible conditions in Thailand, in family businesses and without intermediaries. This not only guarantees high quality and durability, but also supports the local economy and ensures fair working conditions.
The kapok roll mat from livasia impressed across the board in our test. It is robust, versatile and environmentally friendly. The mat lives up to its promise and is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a durable and comfortable solution for yoga, meditation or as a guest bed. Handling is easy and the comfort is excellent. Only on very hard or uneven surfaces could additional padding be desirable. Overall, the Kapok roll mat offers a sustainable alternative to conventional mats.

At the time of testing, the product had not been listed on Amazon for long enough. Therefore, the existing reviews do not sufficiently reflect the advantages and disadvantages of the product, so this point is neglected in the evaluation

Prices of up to €109.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very cheap products are available from as little as €87.00 . The Kapok roll mat from livasia is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €89.90. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
