Apeks XL4 Ocea Octopus (with hose)

Apeks XL4 Ocea Octopus

The XL4 Ocea presents a new concept of regulator to the diving market. One that comes with the inherent build quality and performance shared by all Apeks regulators, but having the prime objective of being the first totally sustainably produced regulator available.

Every manufacturing detail has been considered and adjusted to ensure each material and process has been optimised in the pursuit of minimal environmental impact.

The Apeks partnership with PlasticBank, establishes the XL4 Ocea as the world's first ocean plastic negative regulator.
