SIMEN STRANDÅS 

Graphene_Plush

Graphene is an impossibly light, strong and heat-conducting material. ION integrated this revolutionary material into it's new inner lining – with the highest concentration you'll find in any wetsuit on the market. The result is up to 20% more warmth compared to ION's Plasma_Plush 2.0 lining. Also, Graphene_Plush guarantees incredible drying times for your wetsuit, making sure it's always nice and comfy.

Max_Flex

Max_Flex is our latest innovation in flexibility and stretch. The unique rhombus-shaped structure of this lining material allows it to be more flexible. Further does the material itself not soak up water but redistributes it on the surface thru small channels. This increases the evaporation of water and reduces drying time.

HOT_STUFF 2.0

Hot_Stuff 2.0 lining comes with a plushier feel due to larger loops that trap more air for heat insulation. It is the stretchiest thermo lining in ION's entire range.

POWER_SEAMS

Ultra slim outside sealing technology for a long lasting life span providing freedom of movement and comfort wrapped in a smart package. The Power_Seams adding a special touch and unique look to all ION Select models.

MAKI_TAPE 2.0

Highly elastic neoprene tape reinforces the seams on the lower body and commonly stressed cuff area from the inside.

LIMESTONE NEOPRENE

We use earth mined limestone to replace petrochemicals in our neoprene. It comes from nature and has less environmental impact.

AQUA-ALPHA™ TECHNOLOGY

ION Wetsuits use the Aqua-α ™ technology. Aqua-α ™ is a solvent-free and completely water-based glue, which protects the health of workers at the factory as there is nearly no bad smell from the glue. The difference is huge - a good step for the people behind all the great wetsuits and the environment.

OYSTERSHELL POWDER

We use biocalcium oxide powder made from abandoned waste shells to partially replace limestone in

the neoprene. This process recycles waste oyster shells and is part of our neoprene’s sustainability

contribution. Oystershell Powder is available in all Select and AMP Level Wetsuits

We offset our CO2 emissions, caused by production and transport of our products, by supporting a hydropower carbon offset project in Kuruwita, SriLanka - supported by ClimatePartner. The entire process is transparent and traceable thanks to the ClimatePartner label and a certificate.

Eco Carbon Black

Carbon black, one of the key ingredients of neoprene, can now be pyrolyzed from scrap rubber tires. This significantly reduces energy consumption and cuts CO2 emission by 200g per wetsuit.
