Global Waterproof Breathable Textiles Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2024
Research Summary
Waterproof breathable textiles are specialized fabrics designed to provide protection from water while allowing moisture vapor to escape, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable. These textiles typically consist of a laminate or membrane sandwiched between two layers of fabric. The membrane is made of materials like polyurethane (PU) or expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), which are waterproof and breathable. The membrane has microscopic pores that are too small for water droplets to penetrate from the outside but large enough to allow moisture vapor (sweat) to pass through from the inside. This breathable membrane allows perspiration to escape, preventing the buildup of moisture inside the garment and keeping the wearer dry and comfortable. The outer fabric layer is treated with a durable water repellent (DWR) coating to prevent water from soaking into the fabric. Waterproof breathable textiles are commonly used in outdoor clothing and gear such as rain jackets, hiking boots, and tents, as well as in medical textiles and protective clothing. They provide reliable protection against rain and wet conditions while allowing moisture vapor to escape, making them ideal for activities where both waterproofness and breathability are essential.
