Developing breathable waterproof textiles without relying on persistent fluorinated chemistry.

Engineered to resist liquid penetration while allowing heat and moisture to move through.

A new material approach designed to replace complex laminated barrier systems with one functional fabric.
After learning about the problem of PFAS in firefighter gear, ArcticEdge began developing a new kind of breathable, waterproof moisture barrier.
Our mission has grown from one urgent use case into a broader materials challenge: building next-generation textiles for a world moving beyond PFAS.
We’ve developed, built, and patented a PFAS-free fabric for applications where waterproofing, chemical resistance, durability, and breathability all have to work together.

Our fabric is engineered to support heat and moisture transfer while maintaining barrier protection, helping reduce the trapped-in feeling common in protective layers.

Designed to resist liquid penetration and hazardous exposure pathways while moving beyond persistent fluorinated chemistry.

Instead of stacking layers or spraying coatings onto fabric to force performance, we are building more function into a single fabric system.

Produced in roll format and developed with cut-and-sew, seam sealing, and protective apparel integration in mind.
Our PFAS-free moisture barrier is available. If you are a textile manufacturer, PPE company, outdoor brand, public-sector stakeholder, or technical partners exploring next-generation material systems – get in touch with us!
