Technologies and manufacturing processes
BD.Dry
Our waterproof 2.5L and 3L BD.dry™ technology ensures that you can stay comfortable and on the move even in wet weather. Our goal was to develop a waterproof fabric that is not only water-repellent, but also offers breathability, especially during sports activities. We offer a variety of sustainable solutions, from bluesign-certified fabrics to PFC- and EMPEL-free DWR solutions. Now we have integrated a stretch fabric into this technology, and this is what sets BD.dry™ apart from other waterproof solutions.Recco
A RECCO® reflector incorporated into clothing or equipment makes it possible to be found by professional rescue teams using RECCO detectors. RECCO® technology is a global standard in avalanche rescue and handheld detectors are used by professional rescue teams worldwide. RECCO SAR helicopter detectors are used from the air to search large areas very quickly for a missing person. The reflectors do not replace an avalanche transceiver or a companion rescue. However, RECCO® reflectors do not have to be switched on and serve as an additional aid to ensure that they can always be found by professional rescue teams.
