Yes, recycled materials are frequently used in the production of wetsuits. Wetsuit creators like Abysse recognize the importance of sustainability and incorporate recycled products and materials into their designs.
At Abysse, we want every part of our production process to include recycling. We make Abysse wetsuits with premium Yamamoto Japanese Ecoprene, an earth-mined limestone neoprene. Our classic swim and active fabric are made out of recycled polyester certified by Global Recycled Standard (GRS), and our ribbed fabric is made with GRS-certified recycled nylon. In addition, our plant-based bikini liners, tags and polybags are 100% biodegradable.
To reduce plastic waste pollution, we've created a 100% recycled wetsuit lining regenerated from post-consumer plastic bottles and only use recyclable, compostable packaging. In addition, our plant-based bikini liners and polybags are 100% biodegradable.
