Environmentally the new 2010 packs are destined to make a great impact within the outdoors industry as they are made from Tier One, 100% recycled nylon fabrics which are now being used across much of the Golite range.
What does Tier 1 mean? The manufacturing process for nylon starts with core pellets. In Golite's case, these pellets have been created from reclaimed nylon fed back into the system, which are then heated and recycled into new pellets. These pellets are then melted and spun into a new fabric woven with Dyneema and thus provides the most durable fabric with an excellent sustainable pedigree from within the manufacturing process for outdoor material.
