SUSTAINABLE PRODUCT CARE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

STORMTECH is committed to educating consumers on Product Care Sustainability by explaining some simple ways to prolong the lifespan of our garments, while protecting the environment at the same time. Product care contributes to 25 percent of a garment\u2019s carbon footprint through washing, drying, ironing, and dry cleaning. By following the below product care instructions, you will help extend the lifespan of your STORMTECH garments while minimizing your carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOW TO REDUCE OUR LAUNDRY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
  • Reduce frequency<\/li>
  • Use cold water<\/li>
  • Hang dry when possible<\/li>
  • Use biodegradable, non-toxic detergent<\/li>
  • Donate all worn, torn or stained textiles<\/li>
  • Use steam instead of ironing<\/li>
  • Use environmentally-friendly dry cleaner if necessary<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    \"Stormtech<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    H2XTREME\u00ae PRODUCT CARE INSTRUCTIONS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    • Routine product care and maintenance ensures the optimum performance of your H2XTREME\u00ae garments.<\/li>
    • Read the care label for specific washing\/ drying instructions.<\/li>
    • According to best practices for most waterproof\/breathable outerwear, it is recommended to wash according to the following usage:
      \u2013 Light activity (casual, walking): Wash after 20 to 30 days of use
      \u2013 Heavy activity (skiing, running, hiking): Wash after 10 to 15 days of use<\/li>
    • Zip up all zippers and hook-and-loop closures to prevent snags, release tension on all elastic drawcords.<\/li>
    • Wash with cold water on the gentle, low spin cycle with like colors.<\/li>
    • Use mild detergent, preferably non-toxic and biodegradable.<\/li>
    • Do not add fabric softener, the strong chemicals can break down waterproofing \/D\/W\/R elements.<\/li>
    • Dry your garments on tumble, low heat if recommended on the label. Alternatively, hang dry in a well-ventilated area.<\/li>
    • Do not bleach. Do not dry clean.<\/li>
    • If needed, iron on a cool setting to avoid damaging logos or material that comes in contact with high heat.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      H2X-DRY\u00ae PRODUCT CARE INSTRUCTIONS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      • Read the care label for specific washing\/drying instruction details.<\/li>
      • Zip up all zippers and hook-and-loop closures to prevent snags.<\/li>
      • Wash inside-out with cold water on the gentle, low spin cycle with like colors.<\/li>
      • Use mild detergent, preferably non-toxic and biodegradable.<\/li>
      • Do not bleach. Do not dry clean.<\/li>
      • Do not add fabric softener, the strong chemicals can degrade overall durability.<\/li>
      • Air dry or tumble dry on low heat. High heat can reduce the H2X-DRY performance and contribute to static cling.<\/li>
      • If needed, iron on a cool setting to avoid damaging logos or material that comes in contact with high heat<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        WATERPROOF<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        The waterproof icon identifies waterproof fabric. The \u2018mm\u2019 rating is a standardized test determined by placing a 1\u201d x 1\u201d tube over the fabric to determine how high (in mm\u2019s) a column of water can be suspended before the fabric leaks. The higher the rating, the higher the waterproofness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The higher the rating, the higher the breathability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        SEAM-SEALED<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Seam sealing is the application of a specialized waterproof film used to seal seams. Because sewing needles create small holes that will cause the fabric to leak, seam-sealing is used to seal the holes, to make the seam waterproof. Fully seam-sealed indicates that all seams are sealed, to make a watertight outer membrane.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Ultrasonic welded seams make a watertight seam using mechanical vibrations above the audible range to \u2018weld\u2019 fabric panels together, without any needle punctures from sewing. Ultrasonic seam welding is an advanced manufacturing process and makes an absolute leak-proof seam.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

        CRITICAL SEAM-SEAL<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        The critical seam seal icon indicates that the seams and junctions most vulnerable to leak under normal conditions – typically the seams on the neck, shoulders, and chest \u2013 are sealed. In this case, not all seams are sealed. Critical seam sealing is a suitable technology for most outdoor activities, but full seam sealing is best for extreme weather.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
