Excerpt

Is Sumarpo a sustainable clothing brand? See the real fibre breakdown, plant, animal or synthetic, before you buy.

Feature 1

Sumarpo makes triathlon wetsuits from limestone-based Yamamoto neoprene, a synthetic rubber rather than a natural plant fibre, bonded with a water-based, benzene-free glue.

Its linings are recycled and meet OEKO-TEX standards, with a Slip Skin lining made from recycled plastic bottles, and it runs a separate Yulex natural-rubber swimsuit line.

Feature 2

Sumarpo has been a member of 1% for the Planet since 2021, committing to donate 1% of its annual sales, rather than profits, to environmental causes.

Feature 3

Sumarpo lines its wetsuits with recycled fabrics certified to the OEKO-TEX Standard 100, which verifies the material is free from harmful and toxic substances.
