  OdorArmor - Developed by Bolger & O’Hearn, this advanced and durable odor protection product for textiles is designed to control and absorb odors. Textiles treated with OdorArmor absorb and lock-in body odors as well as outside environmental odors on contact.

Uses include: ski boot, gloves, hats, pants, parkas, mountaineering wear, sleeping bags, socks, thermal underwear and bedding products.
  Outlast® Thermocules™ - As a coating on textiles, Outlast® coated materials offer a higher capacity to store heat than any of Outlast's other applications. Outlast® coanted materials are intended to be used in products that are not in direct contact with the skin (i.e. footwear, bedding, outerwear, etc.). A wide range of materials can be coated.
