Fourth Element began as a diving company who set out to design high quality clothing with a simple, diving orientated style. Outdoor swimmers are starting to purchase the brand due to the quality, design and environmental commitment of the company.
Fourth Element are committed to doing everything they can to preserve oceans for the future and with this in mind introduced their Ocean Positive range of swimwear and products. Ocean Positive products were originally conceived a from recycled ghost nets and other discarded waste – turned into ECONYL® yarn to use in their swimwear and rashguards. They are constantly reviewing their products to add more sustainable fabrics and ensuring anything created is thoughtfully considered for its environmental impact.
Examples of Fourth Elements sustainable practices include:
- Products are packaged in compostable or FSC certified paper bags or cardboard.
- Their headquarters in Cornwall is entirely powered by solar power.
- Organic waste is composted on site allowing them to test the claims of compostability by packaging suppliers.
- Wetsuits which cannot be repaired or sold are either donated to charitable groups such as those introducing wounded servicemen and women to scuba diving and surfing, or scout troops, or they are re-purposed by local groups into book bags as part of a local young enterprise programme.
- They have their milk delivered in glass bottles from the local dairy.

Now that I've been using this changing robe on a daily basis I just wanted to say how lovely it is. Lou was great at advising me and I've come to really like a few things about too: it's a great no-faff thing to just throw on after a swim, and it's a really good wind-break so your body can get on with the business of warming-up. My tip (which is probably valid for all changing robes) is to towel-down quickly before putting it on, and you'll get to appreciate how soft and warm the fleece feels on your skin. And it'll get you nice and dry which is the important thing. I baptised it over the New Year in a chill wind and it did the job perfectly well. I've only gone for swims in my speedos so far and haven't tried changing out of a wetsuit yet but it definitely feels ample enough to cope with that when I come to it. Cheers!
