Overview
Wash-In Textile Waterproofing is a textile waterproofing that is easily washed into the garment in a washing machine. The impregnation improves the water and dirt repellent properties of the fabric, and extends the life of the garment by protecting the fibres and restoring their ability to repel water. It maintains the material’s breathability, colour and feel, as the impregnation does not form a film on the surface but binds to the textile fibre.
This eco-labelled product is based on nature’s own chemistry. It is free from fluorocarbons (PFC/PFAS), fossil-based polymers and synthetic waxes. Instead, it is based on water, natural fatty acids and surfactants, meeting the requirements for 100% biobased content and readily biodegradable.
