eVent fabrics unveils PFAS-free technologies

eVent Fabrics, a leader in waterproof and breathable fabric technologies, is advancing its commitment to sustainability with the introduction of eVent BIO and eVent alpineST. Both innovative technologies are made without the use of PFAS, aligning with the growing global regulations that mandate the removal of these chemicals from consumer products.

As the European Union and several U.S. states move to phase out PFAS, eVent is well-prepared to offer partner brands high-performance breathable waterproof solutions that meet these new regulatory standards. “We view sustainability as a continuous journey,” said Chad Kelly, President of eVent Fabrics. “Our goal is to provide the most sustainable options while maintaining the exceptional performance our customers expect. eVent BIO and alpineST are prime examples of this commitment.”

Designed for demanding applications in apparel, footwear, and accessories, both eVent BIO and alpineST deliver durable, long-lasting performance without compromising on environmental safety. These PFAS-free technologies also align with global textile recycling standards, ensuring their compatibility with broader sustainability initiatives.

eVent Fabrics offers a comprehensive range of PFAS-free laminate options across various product categories, all featuring a C0 DWR finish and responsibly sourced materials. This move positions eVent Fabrics at the forefront of the industry’s shift towards more eco-friendly textile solutions while continuing to uphold the trusted performance that outdoor enthusiasts rely on.
