Benefits of BioThane®
Waterproof
BioThane® is waterproof and durable, thanks to its PVC coating and polyester webbing core. It is stronger than imitation waterproof webbing products made with nylon and lower quality coatings.
Durability
BioThane® is highly durable and resistant to wear and tear, but it is not indestructible. It is abrasion-resistant and has exceptional strength. However, it can be damaged by sharp objects such as teeth. Damage to the outer PVC coating alone may not affect its strength, but if the inner polyester webbing is compromised, the material's integrity is reduced.
Maintenance
BioThane® requires minimal maintenance compared to leather. While leather needs conditioning to prevent drying out and cracking, BioThane only needs a quick wipe down to stay clean. It is dirt and grime resistant making it perfect for outdoor adventures.
Odor Resitant
BioThane® is designed to resist odors and stains, but it may not be completely odor-proof. Strong substances like skunk spray can leave lingering odors that regular cleaning may not remove.
