Patagonia Yulex suits have won industry awards in Europe, Australia and the USA.
They have reduced CO2 in their wetsuit production by 80% and shared their technology with the rest of the wetsuit industry to inspire change. The FSC® Certification is one of the most important aspects of naturel rubber sourcing, it protects naturel habitat forest, with no highly hazardous pesticides used, wildlife management in place and the employees at the forest getting a fair payment, training and safe working conditions.
