Built for Water, Not Just Made to Look Waterproof
A swim buoy is not an ordinary inflatable product. It is repeatedly exposed to water, humidity, sunlight and changing temperatures—conditions that continually test the material.
That is why we chose Polyether TPU for KAPSULE SWIM buoys.
Compared with conventional Polyester TPU, Polyether TPU offers significantly better resistance to hydrolysis—the gradual breakdown of material caused by prolonged exposure to water and moisture.
For equipment that is frequently immersed in water, this provides important long-term advantages:
• Better resistance to cracking, peeling and surface deterioration
• Greater flexibility after repeated use
• More reliable performance in humid and wet environments
• Longer product life with proper care
• Less frequent replacement and reduced material waste
Many swim buoys may look similar when they are new. The real difference becomes visible only after months or years of repeated exposure to water.
Choosing Polyether TPU costs more, but for us, material selection is not simply about reducing production costs. It is about creating a buoy that is genuinely suited to the environment in which swimmers use it.
If a product is made for water, its material should also be built to withstand water.
