Eco-responsible swimsuit: the sustainable choice for summer

Summer is just around the corner, and with it, it's time to choose the perfect swimwear for your summer adventures. But beyond style and comfort, why not opt for an option that's kinder to our planet?
At Apnée, we pride ourselves on offering eco-friendly swimwear that combines elegance, durability, and respect for the environment.
Since our founding in 2017, our ambition has always been to create quality pieces that last. Today, we'll explain why our swimsuits, made from recycled materials and using environmentally friendly processes, are the ideal choice for a sustainable summer.

Apnée's ecological commitment

From the very beginning, our brand has been committed to producing high-quality swimwear while minimizing our environmental impact. As ocean lovers, diving enthusiasts, and ardent admirers of the deep blue, it made no sense to produce pieces that disrespected our seabed.
This is why we chose to use a certified recycled polyester fiber to make our eco-responsible men's swimwear .
How did we get there?

Use of SEAQUAL recycled polyester

Our swim shorts are made from recycled polyester fibers sourced from SEAQUAL, a Spanish organization dedicated to collecting and sorting marine plastic waste collected in the Mediterranean.

By transforming this waste into raw material, we contribute to reducing marine pollution and creating superior quality products. SEAQUAL is committed to cleaning our oceans while providing a valuable resource for the textile industry, transforming waste into a sustainable polyester yarn. It is this polyester fiber that we use to weave the fabric of our men's swimwear .




Local and eco-responsible production

All our swimwear, beachwear and also our new women's collection are made in Portugal.
By choosing local (European) production, we reduce our carbon footprint and support local economies.
In addition, we ensure that our workshops adhere to strict standards regarding working conditions and sustainability. Working with Portuguese workshops allows us to guarantee the quality of each piece and maintain strict control over production conditions. Thus, each production is Oeko-Tex certified (a demanding label... )

Why choose eco-responsible swimwear?

By choosing eco-friendly swimwear, you're making more than just a fashion purchase. You're actively contributing to environmental protection and supporting sustainable production practices.
 

Reducing plastic pollution

The oceans are invaded by millions of tons of plastic waste every year. By choosing eco-responsible swimwear made from recycled materials, you're helping to reduce plastic waste in our oceans. Every SEAQUAL swimsuit made from recycled polyester is one step closer to cleaner oceans.

Sustainability and quality

The recycled materials used in our products are not only environmentally friendly, but also robust and durable, ensuring a long life for your swimwear.
Our swimsuits are designed to withstand the wear and tear of time, repeated swimming and sun exposure, while maintaining their shape and shine.
