Pertex®
As a long-standing ingredient in the outdoor industry, Pertex takes its responsibility to minimise its impact on the environment throughout the manufacturing and supply chain seriously. Through several initiatives Pertex aims to continually further environmental sustainability without compromising the performance and durability of its fabrics.
BLUESIGN
Pertex is an approved partner of the Bluesign® system, which is an initiative for sustainable textile production. Bluesign® seeks to eliminate harmful substances from the beginning of the manufacturing process and sets and controls standards for an environmentally friendly and safe production. This not only ensures that the final textile product meets very stringent consumer safety requirements worldwide but also provides confidence to the consumer in the acquisition of a sustainable product.
PERTEX SHIELD
Pertex® Shield fabrics provide lightweight waterproof protection whilst remaining highly breathable. Designed for intense mountain pursuits where weight and breathability are key, Pertex® Shield fabrics allow you to move fast and stay comfortable. The versatile 2.5 and 3-layer constructions combine lightweight face fabrics with waterproof, windproof and breathable membranes. A durable water repellent (DWR) finish applied to the face fabric sheds rain and snow, which helps to maintain breathability.
TECHNICAL FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Waterproof and windproof
• Lightweight, soft and packable
• Breathable
PERTEX QUANTUM
PERTEX QUANTUM
Pertex® Quantum uses a tightly woven structure to provide a light and soft fabric that allows insulation to fully loft. Precisely constructed from incredibly fine yarns, Pertex® Quantum fabrics are designed to trap still air and improve the efficiency of insulation. A durable water repellent (DWR) finish sheds light rain and snow to provide additional weather protection.
TECHNICAL FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Pertex Quantum uses a tightly woven structure to provide a light and soft fabric that allows insulation to fully loft.
• Lightweight and packable
• Soft to the touch
Windproof to retain warmth
PERTEX QUANTUM AIR
Pertex® Quantum Air is engineered with increased air permeability to provide a balance between wind resistance and breathability. The more openly woven structure of Quantum Air fabrics allows airflow through the fabric, which helps to regulate your body heat and keep you comfortable for longer. This balance of air permeability and wind resistance means Pertex® Quantum Air fabrics are perfectly suited to intense mountain pursuits. A durable water repellent (DWR) finish sheds light rain and snow to provide additional weather protection.
TECHNICAL FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Higher air permeability
• Increased breathability
• Weather protection for intense activity
PERTEX QUANTUM PRO
Pertex® Quantum Pro uses an ultra-thin water-resistant coating to provide increased weather resistance for extreme conditions. By combining a tightly woven face fabric with a microporous coating, Pertex® Quantum Pro delivers a very high level of water resistance whilst remaining lightweight, soft and breathable. The increased weather resistance and durable construction mean these fabrics are ideal for use in cold or damp environments where keeping warm and dry is crucial. Highly water resistant Durable construction Maximises the thermal efficiency of insulation.
TECHNICAL FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Highly water resistant
• Durable construction
• Maximises the thermal efficiency of insulation
PERTEX DIAMOND FUSE
Pertex® Diamond Fuse fabrics use yarns with unique diamond-shaped filaments. These filaments lock together to create a durable and highly abrasion resistant fabric. This engineered structure allows Diamond Fuse fabrics to remain very stable over extended wear and washing.
PERTEX ECO
Pertex® Eco fabrics represent our commitment to sustainable fabric design, development and production. By utilising recycled yarns, we reduce our demands for raw materials.
