re::flective Build Quality
BUDDY BCDs are produced entirely in-house allowing complete control of the whole manufacturing process; ensuring Quality is maintained at every stage from the highest materials specification, to design, testing, refining and styling through to the assembly of the finished product.
 
 
Light enough to travel with – “Heavy” enough to take the knocks when you get there
The toughest build quality on the market with twin bag design featuring a quality airtight HF welded PU inner bladder and 1000 denier Endura FX100 outer shell.
   
Limited First Owner Lifetime Warranty on materials and workmanship.
Endura FX100
 

Endura FX100 is a unique new material commissioned by us, and produced by a specialist materials manufacturer specifically for the diving environment. It has been scientifically tested to withstand extreme conditions and maximise puncture and abrasion resistance. Endura FX100 is coated both sides to prevent fraying, hold colour and protect against chemical and UV attack. This specialist material is only found on BUDDY BCDs.
 
 
Twin Bag Construction
 

We are also the only manufacturer to specify dual bag construction as an essential feature across our entire range. Dual bag construction is safer, more hard-wearing and can be inexpensively repaired and serviced, unlike rival single bag designs which need replacing entirely once their air tightness is destroyed by wear or puncture. Product life is also greatly enhanced by the harness system which transfers the strain of the cylinder from the jacket and buoyancy cell on to the much stronger harness webbing.
