The all new ecoFLEX andecoFLOPfrom Elevation are both made of vulcanized natural rubber, and while their original rubbers, OG and Newcomer, were silicone rubber. These new materials will bolster our lineup in the following ways:
1)ecoFLOPis made up of30% recycled material made with post-consumer tires. Elevation has been wanting to incorporate recycled content into their materials from the start, but it is a little more complex to use recycled material with rubber, so they are happy to have found a way!
2.)ecoFLOPoffersfantastic grip and doesn't pick up dust/dirt as easily as OG and Newcomer do!
3.)ecoFlopis very strong, should be less susceptible to being punctured by sharp objects, and has incredible durability. While people are used to recycled discs being less durable, but these are the opposite!
In other words, every 10,000 discs we produce we get to take 130usedtires out of the world's landfills. Again, this is not your average recycled disc, our eco-materials maintain incredible durability thanks to the uniquely strong characteristics of rubber. It is also super grippy (think the tires of your car) and has a floppiness somewhere between ecoFLEX and OG, so your disc will flop onto the ground and grip to where it lands.
