The FibreAir®
Ideal for swimsuits floating baths for children and adults
There is a saying that there's many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip and all this could have stopped there if Alain Belkadi hadn't intervened.
At the origin of our swimsuits floating
He was the first to have the idea of using fiber to make swimsuits floating baths for children boys and girls from 30 months.
Then began long months of research and development to master the fiber, improve it to optimize buoyancy, transform it into a usable product, and especially adapt it to the child's morphology.
It calls for cutting-edge industrial technologies because the original fiber was only the support of an idea that had to be rethought, reinvented to make it usable, and adapted to rational production.
Named FibreAirⓇ, the fiber, a distant cousin of the original, is now manufactured by specific machines in a factory dedicated to its production.
The adventure of Plouf could begin.
-
The FibreAir®️ is ergonomic, it follows the body's movements.
-
The FibreAir®️ contains 97% air inside its particles.
-
The FibreAir®️ is inserted in layers according to the child's weight.

Buoyancy aid and swimming aid
The child is a very particular human being, whose proportions have a predominant influence on buoyancy.
For Plouf! floating should not hinder movements but rather free them, just like a swimming belt, but without the child being able to remove it alone.
Plouf should allow children to fully enjoy the pleasures of water while promoting learning to swim safely.
To do this, it was necessary to favor the horizontal position, but prevent the child from tipping forward.
Because we know the dangers of swimsuits with integrated floats.
However, a classic float, due to its very shape, not only does not allow one to fully enjoy the joys of the beach or the pool (who would wear
a float all day long?) but it can, in some cases, promote accidents by keeping the child in a vertical position.
