NaturalPrene Wetsuit
Available Now !
We searched for a sustainable and responsible alternative to the rarely recyclable and polluting neoprene: “a high quality wetsuit, following our 100% eco-friendly vision”. So, instead of synthetic rubber, we use a natural one which permits to reduce by half the carbon footprint !
The result :
The NaturalPrene stretch technology : a wetsuit made of 85% natural rubber from a Malaysian plantation and 15% synthetic chlorine-free rubber (made from plants). Moreover, we used a revolutionary production process, integrating micro particles that enable NaturalPrene to extend up to almost 4 times its original size and solvent-free water based glue to paste the recycled polyester lining, which permits maximum comfort and ultra-fast drying.
