We create high-performing fabrics engineered and tested for protection in demanding outdoor conditions.
Not only that, but we regularly collaborate with people and organizations who are pushing boundaries to advance our fabrics.
One example is the expanded polyethylene (ePE) membrane, the heart of the next generation of GORE-TEX® Products. Bonded with carefully selected textiles, the resulting laminates are PFAS-free* and have a reduced carbon footprint**.
We’re increasing our use of laminates with textile components crafted from recycled materials and alternative dyeing techniques. This includes solution-dyeing, which also improves color fastness. In the case of GORE-TEX® Footwear and Gloves & Accessories, we opt for undyed materials.
*Made without intentionally added per- and polyfluorinated substances; may contain trace amounts.
**Through laminates with a new lower-mass membrane and select textile(s) (per Higg MSI)
