ecorepel®
The ecological way to repel water
Isn't it fascinating when ducks dive under water and emerge with dry plumage? Like all waterfowl, ducks produce an oily secretion which they use to make their feathers water-repellent. The water-repellent textile finish ecorepel® is modeled on precisely this type of impregnation. ecorepel® represents an important advance in textile treatment by combining high performance with ecological responsibility.
ecorepel® is completely PFC-free and is based on biodegradable kerosenes. The technology is bluesign®-certified and complies with the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 - for the highest environmental and health standards
Our ecorepel® umbrella fabrics are manufactured exclusively by Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd. in Taiwan - a leading manufacturer of technical textiles with the highest environmental standards.
Find out more about certifications and sustainability on the Formosa Taffeta website.
