Cutan® is a proprietary Klättermusen waterproof and ventilating technology developed to improve on existing fabrics both in performance as well as sustainability by developing PTFE-free membranes to become fluorocarbon-free in production. Cutan® fabrics are soft, flexible, have great stretch and are fluorocarbon-free. 

Cutan® Super Stretch consists of three layers: an inside layer in polyamide, a waterproof polyurethane membrane in the middle and an outer fabric of polyamide and stretch fiber. The three fabric layers are laminated together into one single fabric. 

Cutan® Stretch RP consists of three layers; an inside fabric in polyester, a waterproof polyester membrane in the middle and an outer fabric of 100% Recycled Polyester (RP). The three fabric layers are laminated together into one single fabric. Cutan® Stretch RP is 100% recyclable.

Icebreaker is a light and strong fabric we use mainly for reinforcement. It has high abrasion resistance and is surprisingly thin, providing strength without creating bulk. This makes it a perfect use as a single layer on the backsides of pocket lids, or garment panels. The smooth surface also means that snow and ice does not stick, making Icebreaker ideal for areas such as the bottom hem of pants.

In more exposed areas, we use Icebreaker with a dot-laminated membrane to provide waterproofness, and in some cases a sturdier structure. Both versions of the Icebreaker are bluesign® certified and have a FC-free water-repellent treatment. Icebreaker is made from 100 percent post-consumer recycled polyester.

bluesign® is a standard for environmental health and safety in textile manufacturing. The bluesign® organization provides independent auditing of textile mills, closely examining manufacturing processes from raw materials and energy inputs to water and air emissions outputs.

bluesign® helps us to keep control over the supply chain and choose manufacturing partners based on their commitment to safety and environment.

The bluesign® approval on our fabrics means that it complies with the highest standards of consumer safety by using materials and techniques that save resources and minimize environmental impact. Klättermusen has been a bluesign® system partner since 2007.
