Gore-Tex is not biodegradable, so it can have a negative impact on the environment if it is not disposed of properly. However, Gore-Tex has taken steps to reduce its environmental impact and has implemented a number of
sustainability initiatives. One of these initiatives is the aim to eliminate the use of PFCs in Gore-Tex products. PFCs are a group of chemicals that are commonly used in the production of waterproof and stain-resistant fabrics, but they can be harmful to human health and the environment. As O’Neill we also use 100% recycled PET, with PFCec FREE Durable Water Repellent finish when it comes to sustainable choices. If you like to know more about this, please check out our
