hyperTEC
The team behind X-Pac has launched X-Pac hyperTEC, a new range of advanced fabrics designed for high-performance outdoor applications such as mountaineering, climbing, skiing, and bikepacking.
X-Pac hyperTEC fabrics are not defined by a single fiber but by a higher level of performance. They are made using high-modulus fibers and specialised constructions that go beyond traditional woven fabrics, offering improved strength and functionality.
The fabrics are engineered with advanced reinforcement and technical construction methods that improve strength and reduce stretching under pressure. This ensures better durability and consistent performance in demanding conditions.
X-Pac® hyperTEC also uses advanced lamination technology to create stable fabrics with very low weight. These techniques are inspired by sailcloth construction and provide natural waterproof properties. With added X-PLY reinforcement, the fabrics are designed to offer high durability and performance, making them suitable for users who require reliable gear in extreme conditions.
