The Dirty Truth About Shell Layers
Did you know that most waterproof clothing available today is a hazard to ourselves and the world around us? The clothes are often treated with PFAS, a group of chemicals used for water- and dirt repellency. These chemicals do not break down naturally, are cancerous and have shown negative effects on both reproductive and immune systems for humans and animals.
Circular and toxic free
All our waterproof outerwear is made from circular performance fabrics which are never treated with PFAS or other harmful chemicals. We started phasing out PFAS in 2012 and since 2018, we don’t use them in any new production. Instead we use Atmos, our PFAS free membrane and a biobased water repellency treatment from Organotex mimicing the lotus flower. All fabrics we use are recycled and recyclable, eliminating the concept of waste.
