Protecting The Ocean

We love that Apeks is leading the way with eco neoprene. They’re committed to using environmentally friendly materials and processes whenever possible to help reduce their carbon footprint.

Water-based Glue

They turned solvent-based laminating glue into water-based glue, eliminating harmful volatile organic compounds.

Dope-Dyed Yarn

Dope-dying infuses dye pigments into molten plastic to produce coloured yarns without using traditional dyeing processes.

This saves tremendous amounts of water while reducing energy consumption and water pollution.

Eco Carbon black

Carbon black, one of the key ingredients of neoprene can now be made from scrap rubber tyres. This significantly reduces energy consumption and reduces CO2 emission by 200g per wetsuit.

Limestone neoprene

This neoprene compound uses calcium carbonate from limestone to form chloroprene rubber chips instead of using the traditional dirty petroleum-based ingredients.

Manufacturer's Bumph

The ultimate in wetsuit luxury, the Apeks ladies ThermiQ wetsuit 8/7 is a warm, flexible suit that is feature-rich and developed for the demands of advanced diving.

Suitable for anyone wanting top-end comfort and performance, the ThermiQ 8/7 is also kinder to our environment. The suit is made from limestone-based neoprene, instead of the more traditional chemical-based petroleum neoprene. One of the key ingredients used in producing neoprene, Carbon Black, is made from recycled car tyres instead of oil and the yarn that creates the soft lining of the suit is made from recycled plastic bottles.

A highly efficient 8mm on the core provides extra thermal protection where it is needed most and 7mm on the arms and legs allows for flexibility. Large cargo pockets are ideal for stashing your accessories and an integrated hood provides additional warmth. An across the chest zipper makes it easy to put on, while internal cuffs on the forearms and lower leg minimise water ingress.

The ThermiQ 8/7 is supplied with a simple and effective change mat to protect your feet and wetsuit while getting changed. The mat doubles up as a shoulder bag to carry your wet gear inside, featuring a drawstring closure, carry straps and aluminium G-Hook closure for extra security.

In the ThermiQ 8/7, the wetsuit has truly evolved.

  • Maximum flexibility for comfort during and between dives.
  • Internal fleece keeps you warm throughout the dive and then dries quickly afterwards.
  • The attached hood increases overall warmth and reduces the amount of water that can enter the suit.
  • Non slip shoulder protection keeps your BCD in place and helps reduce wear.
  • A 3D silicone mask grip on the hood keeps your mask in place.
  • Large cargo pockets with internal bungee loops allow you to carry and store all of your accessories securely.
  • Fused edges on sleeves and legs, instead of traditional binding, allows the suit to stretch over wrists and ankles whilst providing maximum durability.
  • Keep your feet free from sand and grit while getting changed with the included change mat/carry bag.
