Henderson unveils Neoprene-free Greenprene wetsuit at DEMA show
Henderson unveiled a new wetsuit at DEMA Show 2019 in Orlando. The new wetsuit is the result of a secret project that Henderson began in 2014.
This new wetsuit is made from a 100% Neoprene free, sustainable plant based insulating foam called Greenprene®.
Consumers should be careful not to confuse Greenprene® with other products claiming to be Neoprene free. Henderson is the only company on the planet to offer Greenprene®. Most products claiming to be Neoprene Free do not contain insulating foam and therefore offer no insulating/thermal protection properties.
The Henderson Greenprene® Wetsuit is a true sustainable replacement to the traditional Petroleum based Neoprene wetsuit. A completely plant based insulating foam that is available in thicknesses from 1 to 7mm.
Greenprene® has been tested and is approved by the United States Department of Agriculture as a Biobased and Biopreferred product.
The wetsuit also utilizes Bio-Span™ recycled high stretch laminates and Aqua-Silk™, a durable abrasion resistant exterior fabric. Both fabrics are made from recycled plastic water bottles.
All Henderson Greenprene® wetsuits are packaged using 100% recycled materials, which are printed using soy based inks.
A video explaining Greenprene® and its development history can be seen here:

Oyster Diving have recently been given exclusive access to offer scuba diving courses and fun dives at Mercers Lake, a beautiful lake near M25/Gatwick in the UK.
Oyster have just launched their own dive boat ‘The Blue Pear’ to explore various parts of the lake. Divers can glide around the underwater woodland, see lots of fish and decent visibility. Out of the water divers set up in the purpose built kitting up area, unwind in a warm shower, and off-gas in the café & licensed bar.
To celebrate the start of the summer season, AquaSports and Oyster Diving have teamed up to host a Star Wars-themed open day on the 4th May.
Guests will be able to enjoy discounted tasters of various watersports including Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP), Canoeing and Sailing. Oyster Diving will be joined by Apeks and possibly other dive manufacturers to display their latest products. Demo gear will be available for qualified divers and Oyster’s sales support team will be on hand for customers with any questions.
Divers wishing to get in the water will need to book in via Oyster Diving’s website where you can also choose to hire any equipment. Non-divers and well behaved dogs are very welcome!
As well as the watersports there will also be music, food and a licensed bar. The fun starts at 10am and finishes around 4.30pm.
Please come along, wear your finest Stormtrooper or Princess Leia outfit and enjoy the fun!
