8' REVOLWE PREMIUM LEASH MADE FROM RECYCLED MATERIALS
We're super excited at Rock-It Surf to be partnering with REVOLWE to offer extremely durable high-performance leashes made from recycled materials. REVOLWE is a brand out of Sweden that has pioneered surf industry product development to include incorporating environmentally friendly practices from the outset. Plus, after years of personally testing and verifying these leashes at Rock-It—they're the most durable we've ever tried! So not only is it made from recycled materials, these leashes won't find their way back into the waste stream for a very long time.
We are in business to evolve a sustainable coexistence of nature and human. Each product concept starts with evaluating how we can develop responsible materials within a circular model to reduce the environmental and social impact. We like to see ourselves taking a lead with redefining what it means to be a responsible brand. - Jan Persson, Founder REVOLWE
Material Descriptions from REVOLWE
YULEX
The Yulex natural rubber in our leashes come from sources that are Forest Stewardship Council certified by the Rainforest Alliance. Only 0.5% of the world's rubber supply currently comes from FSC certified sources. By replacing conventional neoprene with Yulex we are able to reduce CO2 emissions by ≈80% compared to conventional leash cuff.
RECYCLED PET-BOTTLES
We're using a material made from certified post-consumer PET bottles in our products. Every 500 grams of recycled polyester yarn used in our products reduces raw material usage and energy consumption by 61000 BTU's. This is equivalent of 2 liters of gasoline!!
