The Origin of Our Recycled Fabric Swimsuits? It’s Quite an Adventure…
1. Our Raw Material: Fishing Nets
Every year, approximately 80,000 km² of various nets are discarded or lost at the bottom of the oceans. Fortunately, to combat this pollution, organizations like Ghost Diving recover as many as possible.

2. Cleaning and Storage
Once retrieved, the nets are washed and processed in recycling facilities.
They are then ready to undergo the lengthy treatment ahead, known as “regeneration.”
3. Regeneration
The nets are shredded, purified, and homogenized… This long process results in pellets, the highest possible quality standard.
At this stage, the raw material is reclaimed.
4. High-Quality Nylon
The pellets are transformed into a premium nylon thread.
This is the thread that fabric manufacturers—our suppliers—purchase.
Certified Fabrics
Because we are committed to quality, all our fabrics come from Italy, a country renowned for its expertise in this field. Designed to protect your skin, they offer the highest level of sun protection—an UPF 50+ that blocks 98.0% of UV rays.
Additionally, all our fabrics are Oeko-Tex certified, meaning they are free from any substances harmful to health, and Global Recycled Standard certified, ensuring their production adheres to:
Production: Time to Get to Work!
We collaborate exclusively with European workshops to reduce our carbon footprint and ensure superior quality.
On average, a swimsuit travels 8,000 km before reaching the shelves. Our swimsuits travel 3 to 4 times fewer kilometers than those of competitors who manufacture in Asia.
And Delivery?
Our swimsuits are packaged in an eco-friendly way, minimizing plastic use. We ship worldwide and dispatch orders within 24 hours.
