Problem
The outdoor textile industry relies heavily on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) to create waterproof and breathable fabrics, but these chemicals are toxic, persistent in the environment, and harmful to human health. Existing alternatives often fail to deliver the same level of performance or lack circularity.
Solution
Dimpora provides a line of high-performance, eco-friendly textile membranes using its patented CoreLayer Technology. These membranes ensure fabrics are waterproof and breathable while being 100% PFAS-free and fully recyclable. The technology allows for customization using a wide range of polymers, enabling the creation of membranes with tailored performance characteristics and sustainability benefits. Dimpora's membranes facilitate circular solutions for various industries, including mono-material products that can be recycled without separating the layers.
Target Audience
Dimpora's primary customers are outdoor and fashion brands seeking sustainable, high-performance alternatives to traditional PFAS-based membranes, as well as companies in the construction and medical sectors.
