Swedish outdoor firm Houdini has announced that it is the new brand partner for OrganoTex textile waterproofing products by OrganoClick. The company will sell the products for consumers through their sales channels, as part of Houdini’s garment care products. Houdini sells its in-house designed sustainable garments via its shops, webshop, and shop-in-shops.
OrganoTex textile impregnation has been developed during several years and had been designed for adding water repellency to textile fabrics as well as being biodegradable. The technology is based on OrganoClick’s patented and awarded technology for modification of textile fibres and is completely free from perfluorinated compounds (for example PFAS), cyklic siloxanes, and isocyanates that are often used in current textile impregnations. Many of these compounds are suspected to be carcinogenic, hormone disruptive and are bioaccumulative.Swedish outdoor firm Houdini has announced that it is the new brand partner for OrganoTex textile waterproofing products by OrganoClick.
