At Apnée, we believe that everyone can do their part to protect the environment, even on vacation. And that starts with smart choices, like wearing an eco-friendly swimsuit.
Why do Apnée swimsuits rhyme with “eco-responsible”?
Made in Portugal: ethical and local production
Made in Portugal, our swimwear stands out for its ethical and local production . Portugal is renowned for its high-quality textile know-how, which guarantees durable and well-designed products. Each piece is carefully crafted in local workshops located mainly in the northern region of the country, an area historically known for its expertise in the field of textiles and sewing.
We work closely with these factories, selected for their commitment to responsible and environmentally friendly production practices. These factories adhere to rigorous standards for working conditions, providing safe and fair environments for their employees. In addition, they favor manufacturing methods that minimize environmental impact, such as the use of recycled fabrics and non-polluting dyes.
By choosing our products, you are not only supporting an eco-responsible brand, but you are also helping to preserve traditional European know-how. Portugal, with its rich history in the textile industry, plays a crucial role in our approach to producing in a more sustainable and ethical way. In this way, you are actively participating in supporting the local economy and promoting crafts that respect the environment and people.
