Sunreef Yachts - Recycled foam coming soon
This innovative use of structural foam, made from 100% recycled PET materials, represents a step towards more environmentally friendly yacht building. The recycled thermoplastic core offers numerous advantages, including high resistance to processing temperatures, exceptional chemical resistance, strong adhesion as well as good mechanical properties. The material also has the advantage of being fully recyclable. Building an 80-foot (24-meter) catamaran such as the Sunreef 80 ECO requires around 2.4 tons of this foam core, which is equivalent to recycling around 600,000 PET bottles.
