Consistent growth of recreational water sports activities is spurring demand for wetsuits, with eco-friendly wetsuits emerging as the most popular products in the global wetsuits market.
Initially, the brand O’Neil Inc., manufactured the first wetsuit using neoprene. However, with technological advancements and the availability of modern machines has enabled brands to offer wetsuits made from other materials such as wool, lycra, synthetic rubber, and spandex.
This has enabled the wetsuits brands to diversify their product portfolios. Moreover, with growing demand for eco-friendly materials, sales of wool and lycra-based wetsuits are projected to rise over the forecast period.
Further, wetsuits designing has shifted from traditional methods such as seam taping and seam gluing to blind stitching. Blind stitching allows manufacturers to stitch the material completely from one side without making holes directly through the material.
This technique potentially gives more flexibility to the wetsuit and stops continuous flow of water through the material. These developments are expected to continue augmenting growth of the wetsuit market over the forecast period.
