What is CORDURA? A high-performance textile with excellent water-repellent durability


Source: https://www.cordura.com/ja-JP/

CORDURA® is a durable, water-resistant CORDURA yarn trademark of Invista in the United States.

There are various types of CORDURA® textile, and nylon products that are seven times stronger than ordinary nylon are the most notable. In recent years, we have also been working on textiles such as eco-made fabrics made with recycled polyester yarn, while always being mindful of the need to act responsibly on issues such as sustainability.

Why is CORDURA® nylon excellent in water resistance and water repellency?

Durability: This is because Invista uses high-strength CORDURA® yarn, produced in-house with unique technology. The CORDURA textile has a special structure that gives it excellent abrasion resistance and tear strength, and it also has a light and soft texture.

Water repellency: CORDURA® water-repellent finishing is usually DWR on the face side and PU on the reverse side (not all textiles receive this treatment), and because both sides are waterproofed, its waterproof performance is strong.

Uses for CORDURA® nylon

CORDURA textile has a wide range of uses and is used in many different products such as outdoor goods, military supplies, and apparel. It has been adopted by many brands such as Manhattan Portage, Kelty, Kletterwerks, and Jansport.
