Are Triple-X Rashies Australian Made and Chlorine Proof?

Yes to both. Triple-X Aquatic Clothing states it is 100% Australian owned and operated, and that its rashies are manufactured in Australia. The site also says the business specialises in manufacturing chlorine-proof rashies, which is the key detail if you're buying for pool training rather than the beach.

Australian made: what the site claims

The product pages carry these claims directly:

• "Proudly 100% Australian owned & operated"
• "Australian Made"
• Manufacturing is described as Australian-based, not just Australian-owned

Those are two different things, and Triple-X states both. The business describes itself as a personable, family-run operation based at 1/7 Dress Circle Drive, Lennox Head NSW 2478.

If Australian manufacturing is a hard requirement for your club or school order, ask for written confirmation of the manufacturing location on your quote — the site's claim is the starting point, not a substitute for your own procurement check.

Chlorine proof: what that means in practice

Triple-X says it specialises in manufacturing chlorine-proof rashies. That matters because standard swimwear and many rashies degrade in chlorinated pools — the fabric loses elasticity, colours fade, and the garment goes thin and saggy after repeated exposure.

Chlorine-resistant rashies are aimed at:

• Squad and lap swimmers training multiple times a week
• Learn-to-swim and school programs
• Pool-based clubs that need uniforms to survive a season

The site does not publish a specific chlorine-resistance rating, warranty period, or a stated number of pool hours the fabric tolerates. If you need a durability guarantee for a large club order, request that in writing before committing.

Eco-friendly materials

The fabric story is specific and worth noting:

Recycled fishnet-derived Lycra is a recognised route to reducing virgin nylon demand, since discarded fishing gear is a major ocean plastic source. Triple-X pairs that with Australian manufacturing, which shortens the supply chain relative to offshore production.

Note the limits: the site does not state a recycled content percentage, nor does it publish certification (such as GRS) for the recycled claim. Ask for that if sustainability reporting matters to your organisation.

What they make

The range covers custom and personalised:

• Rashies / rash-shirts
• Rash-vests
• Rash-guards

Custom printing with your logo is offered for clubs and events, and the site describes ordering as "easy to order – custom made to your requirements," with a fitting guide and an enquiry/quote form available.

Choosing: is Triple-X right for your order?

Good fit if you need:

• Australian-made custom rashies with club or event branding
• Chlorine-resistant garments for regular pool use
• A recycled-material option with a clear fibre origin

Check first if you need:

• Published chlorine-resistance ratings or warranties
