With winter on the horizon Storm’s cleaning and proofing products can come into their own.
Staying dry, protected and comfortable is key to enjoying the outdoors this winter.
But before you head off into the hills, can you be sure that your kit up to the task of protecting against the rain, wind or snow?
Properly cleaning and caring for technical apparel is imperative to maintaining the performance of kit that is used year after year.
Over time dirt and oil mask the water repellent treatment on waterproof kit – whether it’s clothing, footwear or accessories – meaning it will start losing performance and absorbing water.
Leading cleaning and aftercare specialist Storm offers a range of high performance cleaning, waterproofing and after-care treatments that can be used on a wide variety of outdoor kit including, waterproof jackets, mid and base layers, down jackets, leather, suede and synthetic footwear and backpacks.
A key benefit of Storm is that it uses the same technology in its proofing products that many leading industry brands already use on their own apparel at manufacture.
This makes Storm the perfect complementary solution for extending the waterproof performance of outdoor wear and equipment.
Furthermore, ingredients in household detergents that are designed to stay on fabrics after rinsing to give them a ‘bright clean look’, cause waterproofing treatments to fail, so it is advisable not to use standard washing powders and liquids on technical waterproof kit.
