eVent® Fabrics, Leawood, Kansas, a provider of waterproof, breathable and windproof fabric laminates, introduces its newest high-performance laminate, stormburstLT. An ultralight and ultra-breathable product, it’s designed for extreme applications: stormST for outdoor and lifestyle applications; and windstormST for breathable windproof and softshell applications. This completes eVent’s collection of laminates, providing brand partners with custom solutions for apparel, footwear and gloves.
“With a focus on aerobic use, the stormburstLT ultralight technology platform fills a necessary category space for us,” said eVent Fabrics president Chad Kelly. “We designed stormburstLT with a super thin, 5-micron PFAS-free membrane, and will offer it with either lightweight woven or knitted face and interior fabrics, to create a versatile windproof laminate with high moisture vapor transport and breathability.
The company positions its new product in the “fast and light category,” in addition to offering a breathable fabric for insulated jackets. eVent will market to brands specializing in running, cycling, nordic skiing, hiking, skiing and activewear. Light, packable and versatile, stormburstLT is also suitable for adventure travel.
