In addition to the stylish bikini shown above, the material could also be used for men bathing suits, swimming caps or full-body wetsuits.
And, once the material has been used sufficiently, the pads can simply be replaced with fresh ones to continue its water-cleaning mission without requiring the wearer to buy a brand new suit.
