Test The Worlds First Neoprene-Free Wetsuits
Press Release / 12.08.2016
Patagonia Yulex Wetsuits Tour UK | 20th - 28th August
Join us 20th- 28th August for your chance to test the world's first neoprene-free wetsuits just launched by Patagonia. They'll be hanging out at various locations across the British coastline where visitors wil be able to get in the water with their new Yulex suits.
The entire line of Patagonia's all-new, high-performance wetsuits is made with natural rubber developed in partnership with Yulex and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified by the Rainforest Alliance.
The neoprene-free Yulex wetsuits perform as well or better than conventional neoprene wetsuits. But because the main polymer is produced in trees instead of factories, using natural rubber reduces the CO2 in wetsuit manufacturing by up to ~80 percent. The FSC certified rubber is blended with a small amount of chlorine-free synthetic rubber for increased ozone and UV resistance, and to meet Patagonia's rigorous demands for durability and strength. The Yulex process also removes over 99% of impurities, resulting in a nonsensitizing material.
During the evening of the20th, 23rd and 27th, hang out from 6pm- 9pm for an evening of beers and film screenings and learn about how Patagonia are saying #GoodbyeNeoprene.
