• In July 2023, As a consistent step in the development of its products, Dimension-Polyant improved its successful product from the DCX line. The DCX cleenTEC is more environmentally friendly and performs similarly to the previous model. The classic radial cut ensures good profile stability owing to the inner polyester grid structure reinforced with an X-PLY. This polyester mesh is embedded in two films, smoothed, and finished on both sides with a special taffeta fabric. This makes it particularly abrasion-resistant and makes it easier to handle on board and during storage.
  
  
• In February 2022, Quantum Racing and 878 announced a partnership for the 2022-2023 seasons. Quantum Racing will use RedDot award-winning, full graphene technical and life-style products from 878 to improve sailors' performance. The partnership will also benefit from 878's innovative wearable sailing solutions. The Quantum Racing team will be their testbed, with a dozen top-level sailors selected for their expertise, competitiveness, and desire to support the team's goals. 878, a challenger in the sailing industry, focuses on solving new challenges caused by the foiling revolution and increased speed. The partnership aims to move away from the previous 15-year products and embrace the new standard of material and technology innovation in professional sailing.
