36 Our brands continue to innovate in the area of sustainability. BLOOM training aids Speedo has developed a kickboard and pull buoy with BLOOM. The products are made from 10% algae bloom, with the remainder made from ethylene-vinyl acetate (a polymer material). This algae is cleared from polluted freshwater ecosystems where it would be harmful to marine environments. This renewable material also sequesters carbon. In 2022, Speedo helped turn green water into clean water, with the number of BLOOM products sold equating to: 90,396 litres of clean water returned to the environment / 93,717 M of air cleaned capturing 68.3 kilograms of CO 2 for the BLOOM kickboard 259,464 litres of clean water returned to the environment / 268,997 M of air cleaned capturing 196.1 kilograms of CO 2 for the BLOOM pull buoy. Biofuse 2.0 goggles To try to reduce the products impact on the planet, Speedo has constructed these goggles from materials that use less fossil-based carbons vs traditional plastics. The frame, gaskets and adjustment mechanism are made using bio-based materials meaning a portion of the materials is derived from renewable raw materials such as sugar cane and castor oil. The lens, side clip cover and strap holder are made in part using bio-circular materials (originating partially from bio-waste and residues such as soybean oil), using a mass-balance approach. This means that fossil and bio-circular raw materials are mixed in production, and the total input of bio-circular material is tracked through the production cycle, ensuring an appropriate allocation is given to the material. The strap currently doesnt use any renewable sources, Speedo is looking at possible solutions to reduce or eliminate the use of non-renewable material sources. The manufacturing partner has switched their factory to be partially powered by solar power, helping to reduce their reliance on fossil fuel. *Data relates to products sold in the 2022 financial year.
