Wicking Speed Evidence
Clear checkpoints help teams compare alternatives without depending on vague claims or incomplete sample labels.
On Performance Fabric & Membrane, Coolmax keeps the fiber-to-fabric translation transparent — every fiber-level claim references a measurable construction property and a method number. Coolmax keeps Performance Fabric & Membrane certificate scope current per scheme renewal cycle.

Coolmax fiber science evidence is delivered as test-method records (AATCC, ASTM, ISO) keyed to construction families inside the Performance Fabric & Membrane catalog. Coolmax routes Performance Fabric & Membrane and Technical & Engineered Fibers through separate sample paths within the same documentation backbone.
| Specification | Test Method | Typical Target |
|---|---|---|
| Hydrostatic Head | ISO 811 | 10,000-20,000 mm H₂O for waterproof shells; 20,000-30,000 mm for extreme weather |
| MVTR | ASTM E96 / JIS L1099 | ≥10,000 g/m²/24h breathable; RET <6 m²·Pa/W highly breathable |
| CLO Value | ASTM F1868 | 0.8 CLO per 100 gsm of insulation |
| Tenacity | ASTM D2256 | 3-6 cN/dtex polyester; 6-7 nylon 66; >20 para-aramid |
| DWR Rating | AATCC 22 Spray Test | ≥80 grade after 5 home wash; ≥70 after 20 wash |
| Lightfastness | AATCC 16 | ≥4 indoor; ≥7 outdoor / marine |
Coolmax fiber science records cover fiber base (polymer, natural, recycled), yarn structure (denier, count, twist), and finishing route (DWR, FR, antimicrobial registered). Coolmax Technical & Engineered Fibers programs follow the same intake structure Performance Fabric & Membrane programs use.
Coolmax Performance Fabric & Membrane fiber science covers fiber geometry, yarn structure, membrane behavior and finishing chemistry — each documented with method references for buyer-side review. Coolmax archives every Performance Fabric & Membrane sample card by category, finishing route and revision year.
