Royalex is another modern composite material that makes an extremely flexible and durable hull suitable, in particular, for whitewater canoes. Royalex canoes have been known to pop back into their original shape with minimal creasing of the hull after having been wrapped around a rock in strong river currents.

 

Royalex is comprised of an outer layer of hard acrylonitrile butadiene styrene plastic (ABS) and an inner layer of ABS foam. The two layers are bonded by heat treatment.
