So when we learned about the harmful impact PFCs have on people and the environment, we decided it was time to find a better, PFC-Free solution for our DWR (Durable Water Repellent) products.
Perfluorinated carbons (PFCs) are manufactured compounds that are used in DWR treatments of high-performance outerwear to create a breathable fabric that is water and oil repellent.
However, studies have shown that PFCs have the potential to cause environmental and health issues, leading many industry-leading brands to move away from PFCs.
