"Designed for life in the water from diving and freediving to surface watersports, the Surface is made with certified sustainable natural rubber and recycled inner and outer linings.."
Yulex Pure
"Surface, made using Yulex Pure™, offers a unique solution. Without compromising on strength and performance, it uses completely natural rubber that comes from a sustainable source using earth-gentle processes.
Yulex Pure™ is the world’s first high performing, nonsensitising, 100% plant-based, ultra-pure natural rubber that is FSC® certified, sustainably sourced and proudly produced in the United States of America.
The Yulex Pure™ Process removes over 99.9% of natural rubber harmful impurities, including proteins and increases its performance characteristics and physical properties delivering a stronger, more elastic material. Yulex Pure™ is sustainably grown and harvested, irrigated by ambient rainfall and helps protect the social and economic well-being of forest dependent communities.

Recycled materials
The lining fabrics of the Surface suit are created from plastic bottles, recycled and spun into polyester yarn.
Resources
After the neoprene creation process, the redundant trimmed materials will be recycled and reused in the mixing process to produce more neoprene sheets. Overall huge amounts of raw materials are saved, energy consumption is reduced and waste water and air emissions are minimised during production.
