Introducing ECOPRENE: The Future of Sustainable Life Jackets.
At Jetpilot, we like to be at the forefront of innovation and environmental responsibility. One of our initiatives is to continue to build out our range with a sustainable material replacement, in particular neoprene.
Introducing ECOPRENE—an exceptionally lightweight, durable, and soft outer shell crafted from recycled plastic bottles. This groundbreaking material is now an integral part of our sustainably certified life jackets, offering a unique blend of comfort, strength, and eco-friendliness for all your water adventures.
What is ECOPRENE?
ECOPRENE is more than just a fabric; it represents a commitment to sustainability and a healthier planet. By repurposing plastic waste into high-quality materials, we’re turning a challenge into an opportunity. With every life jacket made from ECOPRENE, you’re not only prioritizing your safety on the water but also contributing to a cleaner environment.
Triple Layer Construction: Designed for Performance
Our ECOPRENE life jackets feature a unique triple-layer construction that ensures both durability and comfort. Here’s a closer look at each layer:
1. Outer Layer: Recycled Polyester Jersey
The outer layer of our life jackets is made from recycled polyester jersey, providing a soft yet resilient surface. This fabric is not only gentle against the skin but also strong and durable ensuring your life jacket stands the test of time. By using recycled materials, we minimise the need for new resources and reduce our overall environmental impact.
2. Middle Layer: Recycled 3D Foam
The middle layer features innovative recycled 3D foam, which offers buoyancy while keeping the jacket lightweight. This unique foam structure enhances comfort by allowing for better breathability and flexibility, making your time on the water even more enjoyable. The 3D foam also provides extra cushioning, ensuring that you remain comfortable even during extended wear.
3. Inner Layer: Recycled Polyester Jersey
The inner layer, also crafted from recycled polyester jersey, again combines sustainability and comfort. The use of recycled materials in this layer reinforces our commitment to sustainability without sacrificing performance. 
TRUST THE PROCESS
Recyclable plastic bottles are turned into pellets which are spun into yarn and used to create our recycled ecoprene.
