Fourth Element
"The Xenos wetsuit line has been developed for the discerning diver who needs an easy-to-don wetsuit that performs well and looks great.."
Designed specifically with multiple dives per day usage such as live-aboard diving in mind. Donning the suit is easy thanks to low friction fast drying linings on arms and legs, but the thermal performance is surprising thanks to blind-stitched seams and Thermoflex linings on the body core. Layer with a Thermocline vest for a little extra protection on the last dive of the day!
The design criteria were to make the Xenos as easy as possible to get on and off. This is achieved by cut away ankles (inspired by the fast transition features of triathlon suits) and smooth linings in the arms and legs.
This suit is perfect for days in and out of the water especially on liveaboards.
Comfortable stretch neoprene throughout ensures that the suit fits well, hugging the body and minimising water flushing through the suit. Double glued and blind-stitched seams combine with internal ankle seals and wrist seals to minimise water ingress.

The use of recycled materials, such as old fishing nets, in collaboration with Ghostnets UK, shows great consistency with the above standards. The same goes for the use of Econyl fabrics, an Italian company specializing in recycled fabrics made from recycled plastic.
Since neoprene has an amazing performance in water sports, the use of fuel oil and therefore supporting oil drilling is not what we want as sea and nature lovers. The fourth element we use for our wetsuits is Limestone and Yulex Pure Neoprene.
Development never stops, so even the new REC FINS, which are made of 97% recycled material, can be recycled again. So here you see the whole life cycle of a product, and the end of life is the beginning of a new life.

One of the key ingredients of neoprene, Eco Carbon Black, is recycled by our wetsuit factory from post-consumer scrap tyres. This significantly reduces energy consumption and cuts CO2 emissions by 200g per wetsuit.
During the neoprene production process, limestone is used to replace petrochemicals to form rubber chips. You achieve the same performance as traditional neoprene, but with way less environmental impact.
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.
