“We’re committed to doing everything we can to help the environment. Our mission is to have 100% sustainable packaging and over 95% of our swimwear to be made from recycled materials.”

SWIMWEAR SUSTAINABILITY
Swing tags are made from recycled card and can also in turn be recycled. Packaging bags are made from recycled material and are recycled.
Currently 95% of our swimwear is made from recycled materials and we intend to get this to 100%. Through Ecolast™ and Ecolast+™, you can now do good, look good & feel good.
Our swimsuit hangers are made from post consumer waste which includes discarded plastic flower pots and toys.
By switching to digital fabric printing in 2017 we have been able to reduce our water consumption by 35%.
GOGGLES & EQUIPMENT SUSTAINABILITY
Eco-Friendly formulation created from plant-based derivatives. Does not contain hazardous ingredients for the environment plus comes in recyclable cardboard packaging.
Our goggle packaging has been reduced by 57% in size. What’s more, our trap blister goggle casing can be cut out and used as a goggle case.
We have introduced new recyclable cardboard packaging for our Ear Plugz range & Nose Clips. This removed plastic packaging completely for these products.
80% of our packaging includes disposal or recovery labels to encourage customers to act responsibly post purchase.

I needed another sport and so I decided that, as I am a runner and cyclist (self-labelled), triathlons were the perfect transition.
But what about the swim?

22 million kg of plastics enters our oceans every day.
It’s a pretty scary figure when you think of the amount of plastic that is. Now, many people may not realise how important the ocean is not only for our livelihood but also for the planet. The ocean creates life for millions of sea creatures as well as providing oxygen for every breath we take.
