H2No® Performance Standard
H2No® Performance Standard is a well-recognised testing standard to ensure all garments are waterproofed in 3 main ways. These are; simulated light rain, prolonged rain and forcing water through the face of the fabric. It also tests the breathability of the product by measuring the Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (MVTR) and durability by subjecting the fabric to a "Killer Wash" - a wet flex and abrasion test that simulates years of use in drenching conditions. This form of product testing ensures that Patagonia sets the benchmark for waterproofness, breathability and durability and ensures the highest level of long-term waterproof performance. The Patagonia standard is 20,000mm before and 10,0000 after their Killer wash test. 2-layer H2No® Performance Standard shell fabrics are completely waterproof, windproof and breathable and made with water-repellent shell fabric and a waterproof/breathable membrane; 2.5-layer shell fabrics are waterproof, windproof, breathable and highly packable and have an additional protective top coat barrier that allows the garment to go without an internal lining fabric; 3-layer shell fabrics are waterproof, windproof and breathable due to a combination of a water-repellent shell fabric, a waterproof/breathable membrane and an ultralight knit backed that is highly packable, comfortable next-to-skin and built to withstand long-term exposure in extreme environments.
Recycled Nylon
True to the ethos of the company Patagonia has been using recycled polyester in their garments for 20 years, although for an unknown reason, nylon is more difficult to recycle than polyester. It has taken years of research, development, and testing but Patagonia has finally found some recycled nylon fibres that are suitable for apparel. Some of the recycled nylon they use comes from post-industrial waste fibre, yarn collected from a spinning factory, and waste from the weaving mills that can be processed into reusable nylon fibre. They're diligently searching for a success story with recycled nylon. The challenge lies ahead of them, and they're committed to discovering the best methods to recycle nylon fibre, but it appears this evolution will take many years.
