Scroll through the stack. Each layer activates the cross-section on the right, showing exactly where xPEL does its work between inlet and outlet.

01

Outer face textile

The garment's visible shell faces the weather.

outerwear · tactical

02

TPU nanofiber membrane

The xPEL membrane blocks liquid water from the outside while venting moisture vapor from the inside, instantly, with no pressure trigger.

14,000 mm hydrostatic

03

Tricot backer

A soft backer protects the membrane and sits against the wearer, keeping the hand soft and stretch-recoverable.

>100,000 MVTR

04

Next-to-skin

Moisture vapor transfers out through the stack so the wearer stays drier.

Values describe the xPEL platform envelope. Application-specific targets are confirmed during sample evaluation and engineering review.

Where it integrates

xPEL in the field.

The applications where partners build xPEL into a finished product. Each one starts with a duty cycle and a sample.

Platform note

xPELis a nanofiber media platform, the engineered layer inside a partner's finished product.

Platform capabilities describe NXTNANO media properties. Final performance depends on the finished product design, test standard, installation, and operating environment. NXTNANO works with OEMs and development partners to evaluate media fit through application-specific sample testing.
