For over a decade we have been working with recycled polyester, which creates a net benefit from a sustainability perspective. The recycling process is significantly less harmful than virgin polyester production while material that would end up in a land-fill is put to good use. The process reduces water, air and soil pollution and saves energy compared to virgin polyester manufacturing, and reduces existing waste. Our recycled polyester is made from post-industrial waste and post-consumer PET-bottles, which makes it a double win. The resulting fabrics not only match but out-perform fabrics made from virgin polyester. Our process replaces virgin resources with superior know-how to create a wider benefit in both performance and sustainability.

PrimaLoft® Gold Active+

PrimaLoft® Gold Active+ delivers the breathable warmth necessary to keep you dry, comfortable and regulated - from morning runs to alpine pursuits. PrimaLoft® Gold Active+ is a thermally efficient insulation that provides just the right amount of warmth, breathability and bidirectional stretch to keep you moving fast and free. The fabric can trap the excess moisture vapor that builds up during highly intense activities.

Combine exceptional breathability, 4-way stretch and recovery, water resistant thermal efficiency and 55% post-consumer recycled fibres in PrimaLoft® Gold Insulation Active+ and you have a garment that will withstand any activity and any weather.

PrimaLoft® Bio

Most products we use are made from materials that shed microfibers during washing and wear and. These microfibers are harmful and may pollute our oceans, landfills and waterways. PrimaLoft® Bio fibers were developed to return to the materials found in nature, in an effort to reduce the environmental impact of microfibers and garments throughout their life. Same great performance, but with a new holistic solution of the journey of a garment.

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.
