• Polartec® Alpha®: The first high- performance fabric to introduce the concept of active insulation. The low-density fibers between air-permeable woven layers create a more efficient fabric for regulating warmth and transferring moisture, which speeds up drying times.


• C0 DWR or PFC-free: Perfluorinated and polyfluorinated compounds, also known as PFCs, are a group of fluorinated substances that have long been used as durable water repellence for clothing in the outdoor industry. They are very bad for the environment because they are very stable, and do not easily break down in nature. Therefore, PFC free/ C0 DWR treatments have been developed. They are less durable but more sustainable.

PFC-free Products bearing the label "PFC Free" or "PFC-free" guarantee that they do not contain any per- and polyfluorinated chemicals (PFCs). These PFCs are known for their water-, dirt-, and oil-repellent properties, which is why they are often used as chemical coatings in outdoor and functional clothing.

It is important to note that PFCs degrade extremely slowly and can therefore remain in the environment for a very long time. In addition, these chemicals pose a potential health risk to humans. According to Greenpeace, PFCs can be detected even in remote mountain lakes or in the blood of polar bears in the Arctic, far away from their original source.

Some manufacturers, such as Vaude, Jack Wolfskin, and Picture, deliberately avoid using PFCs in their products in order to minimize this environmental impact.
