PEFC Certified Wood: a Commitment to Sustainable Forestry
Why is the PEFC Label Important?
At Équipement Yoga, we have chosen wood from French forests certified by PEFC. This label guarantees that the wood used for manufacturing our accessories comes from responsibly managed forests, respecting environmental, social, and economic balances.
The label is important for the following reasons:
-
It ensures sustainable forest management in France and worldwide.
-
It supports producers committed to responsible exploitation of natural resources.
-
It allows for traceability of the wood used, from the forest to the finished product.
We have an official license to use the PEFC brand, and we are committed to respecting the strict communication rules associated with it: compliant logo usage, verifiable and transparent messages, and clear distinction from other labels on our materials.
Choosing Équipement Yoga means making a concrete gesture for the planet, while enjoying the strength, authenticity, and natural aesthetics of wood.

The origin of the whalebone, the wooden yoga accessory par excellence!
Yoga teacher
Patrick Delhumeau, an experienced yoga teacher for over 35 years, asked us to design a wooden yoga equipment necessary for the well-being of his students. Our collaboration gave rise to the whalebone, an indispensable piece of yoga equipment for stretching postures. He worked with us to design the whalebone for maximum user comfort.
