What materials do we use?
WAMU products are made primarily from sustainable materials.
Softshell (recycled)
This material is the most important to the production of our functional products such as jackets or trousers.
Composition:
Outer material: 100% polyester (recycled)
PU membrane
Inner material: 100% polyester (recycled)
- it is a modern functional material
- it is a sustainable material
- it has the environmental and quality certification Bluesign®
- it is mechanically resistant
- has high breathability (vapour permeability)
- has a high water column
Vapour permeability of the fleece-insulated version: 18 000 g/m/24h
Water column: 10 000 mm
Breathability/vapour permeability can be measured in two different units.
Ret - The lower the Ret value, the more breathable the material is.
g/m2/24 hodin - Tells you how many grams of water vapour the material is able to transmit in 24 hours.
Correct maintenance is absolutely key to maintaining the functional properties of a softshell.
