At AERÉ Marine, innovation and sustainability have always been at the core of our product development. For over 25 years, we have been committed to enhancing the quality and performance of our marine accessories, continually pushing the boundaries of technology to meet the evolving needs of our customers. Today, we are thrilled to announce the latest advancement in our product lineup: the transition of our Fenda-Sox® from acrylic to a revolutionary polyester thread made from recycled water bottles.
The Shift to Sustainable Materials
As the world moves toward greater sustainability, recycling programs have become more effective and widespread, creating new opportunities for innovation. At AERÉ, we’ve embraced this shift by incorporating polyester thread made from recycled water bottles into our Fenda-Sox covers. This not only enhances the durability and performance of our fender covers but also helps reduce plastic waste.
Most importantly, the recycled yarn used in our new Fenda-Sox covers is produced in the United States, ensuring a high standard of quality and supporting domestic manufacturing—something we believe is more important now than ever.
Benefits of the New Polyester Thread
Enhanced Durability and Strength: The new polyester thread delivers superior strength compared to traditional acrylic. This means our fender covers are now more resistant to wear and tear, providing long-lasting protection for your fenders.
Superior Color Retention: One of the standout features of polyester thread is its ability to retain color better over time. This means our fender covers will maintain their vibrant appearance longer, even in harsh marine environments.
Environmental Impact: By using polyester made from recycled water bottles, we are helping reduce plastic waste and promoting recycling efforts. This eco-friendly approach not only benefits the environment but also aligns with the growing demand for sustainable products among consumers.
The Technology Behind the Change
Our transition from acrylic to polyester thread represents more than a material change—it’s a technological advancement that elevates the overall quality and functionality of our fender covers. The process of transforming recycled water bottles into high-performance polyester thread involves several steps and a meticulous production process, resulting in a thread that is both eco-friendly and exceptionally durable. This innovation ensures our products continue to meet the high standard AERÉ is known for while sporting a more sustainable future.
AERÉ’s Commitment to Innovation
For over 25 years, AERÉ has continuously sought to improve its products through innovation. Our transition to using recycled, U.S.-made polyester thread is just the latest example of our commitment to incorporating cutting-edge technology into our marine accessories. This new material boosts the performance and longevity of our fender covers while reinforcing our commitment to environmental responsibility and domestic manufacturing.
We believe the future of marine products lies in merging advanced technology with eco-friendly practices. By adopting recycled materials and improving the durability and functionality of our products, we are setting a new standard in the marine industry.
Looking Forward
As we prepare to launch our new Fenda-Sox fender covers made from recycled polyester thread, we’re excited about the positive impact this change will have on both our customers and the environment. The new products are expected to be available in the next few weeks, and we can’t wait for you to experience the enhanced performance and sustainability firsthand.
At AERÉ Marine, we’re proud to lead the way in sustainable marine products. Our ongoing commitment to innovation and environmental responsibility ensures that we continue delivering the highest-quality accessories for boat and yacht owners.
