Safety doesn't mean sacrificing comfort.
Next to personnel, protective equipment and safety apparel are the most important assets in the field. Gear that can live up to the physical demands of the work environment is essential for great performance. Our Outlast® technology solution allows you to develop products that take performance to the next level by providing cool, dry, and comfortable gear.
Military Protective Equipment
Overheating affects how soldiers feel, thus how well they perform. Outlast military protective equipment technology is a thermal regulation technology that conserves a soldier’s energy resulting in better performance over longer periods of time.
Outlast military products are engineered to balance body temperature by absorbing and releasing excess heat. Cooler skin temperatures mean a significant reduction in sweating - less skin damage or blistering - helping soldiers stay comfortable on the hottest of days and also when the temperature drops by minimizing chill.
Key benefits of Outlast technology:
- Reduced overheating (hot spots) and chilling (cold spots)
- 30% less sweat measured in IBA
- 45% less sweat measured in footwear
- Lower microclimate humidity; less sweaty feeling
- Metabolic energy is conserved when temperature spikes are minimized; performance is enhanced
- Can be layered to maximize heat storage capacity and thus maximize comfort
