Patagonia Yulex suits have won industry awards across Europe, Australia and the USA. Patagonia reduced C02 in their wetsuit production by 80% and shared their technology with the rest of the wetsuit industry to inspire change. The FSC® Certification is one of the most important aspects of naturel rubber sourcing, it protects naturel habitat forest, no highly hazardous pesticides are used, wildlife management is in place and the employees at the forest get a fair payment, training and safe working conditions.
