ION FUSE DRYSUIT
PRESS RELEASE
Cold means nothing: the new ION drysuits
After the debut of the ION drysuit FUSE in 2010 and an ongoing enhancement, in their 2014 wetsuit collection ION offers not only the FUSE but also the ENVEE drysuit for women.
The FUSE/ENVEE is made for all the hardcore guys and girls who don’t care about minus degrees but just go out for a session even in the coldest winter time.
The ION drysuits feature a new improved absolutely dry Diving Drysuit Seam
Technology. All seams, pockets and cuffs are glued blind-stitched and fully sealed on the inside with a 20mm wide Neoprene tape like in scuba-diving drysuit technology. The crucial difference compared to normal taped seams lies in the special preparation of the gluing areas along the seams: The double lined jersey is removed from all gluing areas to ensure a 100% water-proof bonding of the naked Neoprene rubber on the rubber tape.
In addition every single ION drysuit must now pass a final waterproof test procedure before leaving the factory.
All ION drysuits furthermore feature ION Anti_Smell, which uses the Sanitized® technology. ION uses this proven Swiss certified antibacterial fabric with the active biocidal substance: zinc pyrithion as a pioneer brand in the water market to fight the unpleasant problems every watersports man know: A foul and sweaty smell, often combined with skin irritations and allergies caused by bacteria, germs, mildew, funghi, mold, algae, mites, etc. in moist or sweaty environments.
With the Neoprene flotation construction, that keeps you safely above the water, ION meet their ambition for Safety because being out on the water in cold wintertime can be seriously dangerous especially as it is getting dark much earlier. This ambitions is completed by the new Re_flective feature: Additional reflective prints on the shoulder / hood area, which makes it much more easy to be found by SAR crew searchlights in case of emergency. The knowingly selected bright colors for the hood and the arm-beds additionally increase this effect.
In Addition the newly added ION Storm_Whistle is a true safety feature. Ever tried to call for help in a roaring storm? Difficult! That´s why ION looked for the loudest safety whistle on the planet and found it: The Storm_Whistle®! This incredible whistle is twice as loud as any other mouth-blown whistle and it even works under water due to its patented harmonic chamber creating the extreme 3150 hertz frequency sound!
