Technology

Components of 3-Layer Fabric
A typical 3-layer waterproof-breathable fabric consists of:
  1. 1. Outer Layer:
    A protective face fabric, often made of nylon or polyester, designed to repel water and provide durability.
    2. Middle Layer:
  2. A waterproof and breathable membrane, which is either a microporous PTFE (film, or a PU/TPU coating, that prevents liquid water from entering while allowing water vapor (sweat) to escape.
    3. Inner Layer:
  3. A soft lining, such as polar fleece or a tricot knit, which enhances comfort against the skin and helps wick away moisture.

    Common Technologies
  • PTFE Membranes:
    Used in high-performance fabrics, PTFE membranes are known for their excellent waterproof and breathable properties.
    PU/TPU Membranes:
  • Polyurethane (PU) and Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) offer effective waterproofing and breathability, with TPU often considered an eco-friendly option.Popular Materials and Applications
  • Nylon and Polyester:
    These are frequently used as the face fabric due to their strength, durability, and ability to be combined with water-repellent (DWR) finishes.

Important Cleaning of a Bivvi Bag Instructions / warranty void if misused


To clean a 3-layer bivvi bag, first, gently spot clean with warm water and a sponge to remove mud and debris, avoiding harsh scrubbing or detergents. For a deeper clean, hand wash it in a tub with a specialized technical fabric cleaner, rinse thoroughly until all soap is gone, and then lay it flat to air dry, ensuring all zippers are closed and clean. Do not use regular detergents, fabric softeners, or bleach, as they can damage the fabric's protective coating.

cleaning process

Initial cleaning: Gently hose down the bivvi to remove loose dirt or use a sponge with warm water to scrub away mud without scrubbing harshly.
  • Close and clean zippers: Ensure all zippers are zipped up and free of dirt, as this can damage them over time.
  • Hand wash: If a deeper clean is needed, use a specialized technical cleaner. Fill a bathtub with lukewarm water and add the cleaner according to the product's instructions.
  • Submerge and agitate: Submerge the bivvi and gently massage the cleaner into the fabric. Let it soak for about 15-20 minutes.
  • Rinse thoroughly: Drain the soapy water and rinse the bivvi with clean water until no soap residue remains. You may need to repeat this process several times.
  • Remove excess water: Gently press the water out of the bag; do not wring or twist it, as this can damage the fabric and seams.
  • Dry: Lay the bivvi flat to air dry. Do not pick it up when it is wet, as the weight of the water can tear the stitching. 
What to avoid

Regular detergents: Do not use standard detergents, as they can strip the waterproof coating.
  • Fabric softeners and bleach: These can also damage the technical fabric.
  • Wringing and twisting: Avoid wringing or twisting the bag when wet to prevent tearing the seams or insulation.
  • Machine drying: Do not put the bivvi in a dryer. Air drying is the safest method.
