NYTROLITE FOAM
Low Density Polyethylene which is expanded using Nitrogen in an exclusive process (which cannot be duplicated)
The foam is actually 3 times lighter than regular PVC foam and it absorbs 15-20% less water due to the closed cell foam structure.
The resulting foam is approximately 10% more buoyant than PVC meaning we can use less foam in each vest and it will still float the same.
