Ventile Brochure

• Whether you’re fixing skidoos in Antarctica or trekking across the Sahara there is no better fabric than Ventile fabrics which are offered in different weights and cellulosic mixes providing outstanding natural performance combined with unparalleled breathability. In bad weather you can relax con fi dent in the knowledge that Ventile will keep you safe and dry. • The way Ventile works is both natural and simple. Extra-long staple cotton fi bres are softly spun, doubled and woven, resulting in a fine but dense weave, which accommodates up to thirty percent more yarn than conventional fabrics. Whether dry or wet, it is remarkably warm and windproof, and breathes far more effectively than alternative fabrics, ensuring comfort whether relaxing or exercising. • Special treatments give Ventile its excellent Durable Water Repellency (DWR) properties shedding water from its surface as demonstrated in nature. In the unlikely event of torrential rain penetrating the DWR treatment, moisture will cause the gently spun fi bres to swell, closing the weave even tighter. Far too tight in fact to let water in yet still allowing body vapour to escape. • If you are fishing for salmon in Scotland, struggling through blizzard conditions in the Alps or standing on a windswept golf course you can depend upon Ventile to o ff er you the highest levels of comfort and protection. • Indeed, Ventile’s properties are such that, today, the fabric is widely recognised by Arctic research groups as being the natural and best choice for all-round performance, where durability and reliability is of paramount importance.
