This Physics resource uses the exciting context of Henri-Lloyd clothing to explore the topic of insulation. Students will investigate how Henri-Lloyd designed clothing for the INEOS TEAM UK America’s Cup team to keep them performing at their optimum. An energy transfer and insulation practical, expands scientific knowledge whilst allowing students to find out more about the roles of each sailor onboard an AC75 race yacht.

Henri-Lloyd design and build innovative sailing clothing to protect sailors, explorers and pioneers from the world’s most extreme weather, this resource will allow students to explore the science behind how sailors keep warm and dry out on the water!
