DownTek™ PFC-Free Bulk Down

Sustainable Down Source is proud to offer DownTek™ PFC-Free Water Repellent bulk down—a down coated with a thin water repellent barrier that enables our down to insulate even when wet.

When regular down is exposed to moisture, the moisture droplets cling to the filaments of the down cluster, forcing the down to collapse in on itself. When wet, regular down loses its ability to insulate because the pockets of air that provide insulation collapse. Air pockets on the down clusters of DownTek™ PFC-Free Water Repellent Down do not collapse. The treatment creates surface tension on the surface area of the treated down clusters, which forces the moisture molecules to bead up and roll off the down, leaving each cluster free to continue trapping warm air, thereby maintaining the ability to insulate when wet.

The benefits are obvious and customers love it: now, they can wear a down jacket in the rain or snow and camp in inclement weather without worrying about keeping their sleeping bag dry—we are literally changing the way consumers think about down. DWR down has become the standard instead of the exception in the down industry. We believe DownTek™ PFC-Free Water Repellent Down is the best DWR down on the market and we plan to continue setting the standard.
