MEMBRANE 15 poly taffeta
MEMBRANE 15is ourultralight 15 denier taffeta polyester. Similar to our MEMBRANE 10 nylon taffeta, MEMBRANE 15 combines breathability,wind/water resistance, and exceptional downproofing with the
softest hand feelon the market.
To make MEMBRANE 15, we start with a customwoven, high thread-countpolyester base material. In addition to adding durability, this
reduces moisture absorptioncompared to a nylon base.
Combined with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating, the result is
significantly lessweight gain and
improved comfort(i.e. no clammy feeling) when the fabric issubjected to rain or highly humid environments.
All this makes MEMBRANE 15 excel in a variety of applications includingquilts, jackets, sleeping bags, garments, pillows, linings, and more.
