Swimwear brand Speedo has launched an outdoor swimwear range made with its new Global Recycled Standard and Recycled Claim Standard-certified Ocean Flex fabric. 

Ocean Flex is a swimwear fabric made from an 80/20 blend of Hyosung Regen Ocean 100% post-consumer nylon made from discarded fishing nets, and its 100% recycled Regen Spandex.  

Speedo’s Ocean Flex swimwear is part of its Open Water collection. It features a women’s once piece swimsuit, a long sleeve zip back one-piece swimsuit, racer back crop top and boyleg bottom.
