100% YAMAMOTO Neoprene – Why is this important?
- YAMAMOTO rubber is a high quality, warm, durable, lightweight and flexible rubber made from the purest Japanese limestone.
- The limestone that YAMAMOTO use is sourced from Mt. Kurohime, which stores billion tons of the purest Japanese limestone.
Out of such purest limestone, YAMAMOTO only uses the highest-grade limestone, containing 99.7% of calcium carbonate. (The lower-grade limestone is used for cement.) - Rubber can be made from Natural Rubber (NR) latex or petroleum oil. However, such raw materials are more likely to contain impurities. Therefore, its quality largely depends on production lot.
Sustainability
Renewable Energy
- Petroleum Oil – is expected to be depleted in next 50 years. Limestone, on the other hand, can be utilized for a wetsuit material semi-permanently.
- Renewable Energy Sources – when making CR from limestone, it requires a lot of energy. To reduce environmental impact, most of the energy used comes from renewable energy sources such as hydroelectricity.
- Longer Product Lifetime – as CR is excellent at performance such as weather resistance, CR wetsuits last longer. One of the most eco-friendly ways to achieve sustainability is to use one product for a longer time in order to facilitate that the product has to last longer.
Plant Based Oil
- Although certain amount of oil is needed to make soft rubber foam, YAMAMOTO stopped using petroleum-derived oil.
- Instead, YAMAMOTO uses food-grade pure Canola oil, which is widely used as Tempura oil in Japan for sustainability and safety
Ocean Pollution
-
Our beautiful blue sea is now in danger of being covered by marine debris. It is estimated that there are 150 million tons of plastic waste in the ocean and at least 8 million tons are flowing in the ocean annually.
Reference: WWF Japan WEB site “About marine plastic problems” -
YAMAMOTO is working on recycled jersey materials to reduce pollution of the ocean and to let more people to be aware of this issue.
-
It is estimated that the number of marina debris is going to exceeds the one of fish in 2050.
-
YAMAMOTO will continue to work on solutions to conserve our beautiful ocean.
