To make MEMBRANE 15, we start with a custom woven, high thread-count polyester base material. In addition to adding durability, this reduces moisture absorption compared to a nylon base.
Combined with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating, the result is significantly less weight gain andimproved comfort (i.e. no clammy feeling) when the fabric is subjected to rain or highly humid environments.
All this makes MEMBRANE 15 excel in a variety of applications including quilts, jackets, sleeping bags, garments, pillows, linings, and more.
