eVent Fabrics, a pioneer in breathable and waterproof fabric technology, is introducing eVent alpineST and eVent BIO to further demonstrate its commitment to sustainability. The fact that neither of these cutting-edge technologies uses PFAS means that they comply with the increasing number of international laws requiring the elimination of harmful substances from consumer goods.
eVent is well-positioned to provide partner companies with high-performance breathable waterproof solutions that satisfy these new regulatory standards as the European Union and a number of U.S. states move to phase out PFAS. “We see sustainability as an ongoing process,” eVent Fabrics President Chad Kelly stated. “Our objective is to deliver the most environmentally friendly solutions while upholding the superior quality our clients have come to expect. eVent BIO and AlpineST serve as excellent illustrations of this dedication.
Both eVent BIO and alpineST, which are engineered for high-demanding uses in clothing, accessories, and footwear, provide strong, long-lasting performance without sacrificing environmental safety. These PFAS-free technologies are also compatible with wider sustainability programs because they comply with international requirements for textile recycling.
eVent Fabrics provides a wide selection of PFAS-free laminate choices in multiple product categories. All of these solutions have a C0 DWR finish and are made from materials that are produced responsibly. With this action, eVent Fabrics will lead the industry’s transition to more environmentally responsible textile solutions while maintaining the reliable performance that outdoor enthusiasts have come to expect.
