Product information
The fabric is woven from 100% cotton and using PFCs free DWR. It is waterproof and breathable despite its natural fibers and laminated with Xpore membrane. Xpore offers 100% detox and hydrophobic nano-porous membrane. It is more ecological because the new membrane is complete solvent free in process and PFCs/PTFE free in materials. Xpore’s manufacturing process also requires no water since it uses rolling technique. Therefore, it can save a lot of water. Since the process is solvent free, it also causes no air pollutions during the process. Additionally, Xpore’s factory itself is a green architecture (certificated by Taiwanese government.) The factory also uses solar panels to promote green energy. Xpore’s performance is in outstanding quality that could achieve 20K for water resistance by ISO 811 and 10K for permeability by JIS L1099 A1 method.
