GORE-TEX PRO: Maximum robustness and sustainable performance for extreme conditions

GORE-TEX is known for its innovative membrane technology, which makes outdoor clothing and footwear waterproof, windproof and breathable at the same time. The microporous structure of the membrane allows perspiration to escape, but blocks rain and wind, ensuring optimum comfort. Thanks to these properties, the body remains dry and protected even in extreme weather conditions, making GORE-TEX a reliable choice for outdoor activities.

The new generation of GORE-TEX PRO products: Robustness meets innovation

The new GORE-TEX PRO products set new standards in terms of durability and sustainability. They are specially designed for extreme requirements and offer maximum robustness, which has been implemented in both the textiles and the membrane. The PFAS-free membrane not only reduces CO₂ emissions, but also guarantees the usual performance that outdoor enthusiasts and mountaineers expect from GORE-TEX products.

Maximum load capacity for extreme weather and operating conditions

This product line is ideal for use in demanding environments such as high mountains and glacier regions. The durability of the materials has been guaranteed through rigorous scientific testing. Specially developed machines, such as the Martindale Abrasion Test and the Crumple Flex Test, simulate extreme conditions such as friction from backpacks, cold down to -20 degrees and movement under the toughest conditions. This ensures that the products can withstand even the toughest conditions.

Innovative test procedures for maximum durability

Advanced testing methods have been developed to ensure the quality and durability of the new GORE-TEX PRO products. In addition to the Martindale machine, which tests abrasion and surface wear, a cold chamber combines movement and ageing tests under extreme temperatures. Another test, adapted from the automotive industry, checks the durability of the outer material. These comprehensive tests ensure exceptional durability and resistance.

Sustainability and performance in perfect balance

The new GORE-TEX PRO products show that ecological responsibility and top performance are not mutually exclusive. The introduction of the PFAS-free membrane makes a decisive contribution to reducing environmental impact without compromising on performance. This makes these products the perfect choice for outdoor enthusiasts who value sustainability and top quality.
