Aquapac on Track


Aquapac has always been committed to making as little negative impact on the environment as possible. This year they have taken this commitment further, starting March 1, 2008 all Aquapac waterproof cases will be made from Polyurethane (PU), a material which is 100% PVC Free, better for the environment and also a better fit for the purpose of Aquapac waterproof cases.

Below are just a few benefits of the new material:


  • 100% Recyclable - it can be broken down and made into something else at the end of a product’s life.

  • 100% PVC Free - less damaging to the environment.

  • Less sensitive to extreme climates than PVC - can withstand temperatures of 122°F (+50°C) to -40 °F (-40°C)

  • Suitable for use in all weather conditions, particularly useful for winter activities and snow sports

  • Thinner than PVC which makes it easier to operate controls through the case – still as durable as PVC.

  • Our work won’t stop here, we will continue to look for ways to further reduce our impact on the world’s natural resources while not compromising on the quality and functionality of Aquapac products.
