The Eco Wetsuit
World's First Environmentally Friendly Wetsuit
The ECO is the first environmentally friendly wetsuit produced with Body Glove's signature BIO STRETCH rubber and ECO FLEX exterior. Both materials are non-petroleum based and 100% environmentally friendly. The combination of these two materials is the purest form of non-toxic stretch material on the planet. Not to mention the production of these eco-friendly materials only consumes 1/10th the amount of energy normally used in the manufacturing of standard petroleum based wetsuits. The ECO is a SMARTER, GREENER, and CLEANER choice for the environment. With this sustainable wetsuit, we can begin enjoying the earth and our oceans while preserving them at the same time.
Better than a Battery
Body Glove has always taken a special interest in preserving the environment. Our design team knew that the ECO Wetsuit would make the perfect addition to the already growing ECO line, which includes the ECO PFD. The ECO PFD was the first environmentally friendly U.S. Coast Guard approved, personal flotation device.
The Body Glove ECO men's fullsuit comes in 4/3 mm and 3/2 mm and the exterior is 100% ECO Flex throughout. The interior of the ECO is 100% non-petroleum calcium carbonate closed cell foam rubber, all the graphics are printed with organic water ink and the zipper on the exterior pocket key holder is made from recycled plastic. The Vaporlock seams minimize water seepage and the interior floodgate helps keep the rider dry. The super stretch flex kneepads add to the maneuverability of the wetsuit and surfer.
