Ep. 154 - Inside X-Pac’s Newest Fiber Technology | with Taylor North and Yann Jacquet

Technical fabrics are changing fast, but what’s actually driving the next generation of materials? We sit down with Taylor and Yann from X-Pac® to go behind the laminate and talk hyperTEC, UHMWPE, sustainability, and where performance fabrics are headed next.

In This Episode, We Cover:

  • Why the industry is shifting back toward high-performance materials—and what that means for the fabrics makers will see next
  • What makes the new hyperTEC line different, including 100% UHMWPE face fabrics, UHMWPE X-Ply®, and the development behind them
  • The surprising truth about “recycled” fabrics, including why two materials carrying the same certification can contain drastically different amounts of recycled fiber
  • What makers misunderstand about laminates, delamination, and the decades of development happening behind fabrics that might look deceptively simple

Listen in and get a rare look behind the materials you’re cutting, sewing, and building with every day.
