The BEUCHAT brand:

Founded in 1934 by Georges Beuchat in Marseille, BEUCHAT is a pioneering Made in France brand in the field of diving equipment. With a rich history and an unmatched reputation, BEUCHAT is synonymous with innovation, quality, and performance. The company has always been committed to providing high-quality products that meet the needs of divers worldwide, whether they are amateurs or professionals.

The Values of the BEUCHAT brand:

• Innovation: BEUCHAT has been at the forefront of many technological advancements in diving. For example, the brand invented the first isothermal neoprene wetsuit in 1953.
• Quality: Every BEUCHAT product is designed and tested to meet the highest industry standards, ensuring optimal performance and exceptional durability.
• Environmental Commitment: BEUCHAT is dedicated to protecting the environment. The use of Eco-Friendly neoprene, made from limestone instead of petroleum, is an example of this commitment.

Our range of BEUCHAT wetsuits:

BEUCHAT offers a wide range of wetsuits tailored to different conditions and types of diving.

Here is an overview of the wetsuit types offered by BEUCHAT:

• Wetsuits: These suits, also known as "wetsuits," are designed to trap a thin layer of water between the skin and the suit. This water is warmed by body heat, providing thermal insulation. BEUCHAT wetsuits, such as the "Focea" and "Alize" models, are popular for their comfort, flexibility, and protection in temperate to warm waters.
• Semi-dry suits: These suits, often referred to as "semi-dry suits," offer better insulation than wetsuits thanks to watertight seals at the wrists, ankles, and neck. These seals minimize water exchange, improving heat retention. BEUCHAT offers models like the "Semi-Dry," which are ideal for diving in colder waters where extra protection is needed.
• Dry suits: Dry suits are designed to keep the diver completely dry, preventing any water infiltration. They are essential for diving in very cold waters or extreme conditions. BEUCHAT dry suits, such as the "Iceberg," are made with durable materials and watertight closures to ensure maximum thermal insulation and optimal comfort during extended dives in icy waters.
