Wherever applicable we use no. 10 zippers and don’t go smaller than no. 5. Since we started over 40 years ago, we have resisted the temptation to use smaller sizes and cheaper brands and this decision has proven to be right over the years. We always use the zipper chain on the visible outside because it lasts 30% longer than the zipper chain used inside out, with the webbing on the outside. We only use silver nickel-plated zipper sliders, as these have a longer lifetime compared to their coloured counterparts (no matter if powder-coated or with any other dying technology). PFC-FREE DWR: - PFC (perfluorocarbon) is mainly used in outdoor applications when a water-repellent effect is required (impregnation). Harmful PFCs such as, PFOS (perfluorooctane sulphonic acid) and PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid) accumulate in the environment and organisms, which has a lasting negative effect on them. Since the water-repellent characteristics of BACH textiles are of central importance for the use of our products, we are now using the PFC-free alternative from HeiQ Eco Dry. Not far from us in Switzerland, HeiQ is developing this technology, which has been successfully established in a wide spectrum of textile applications in recent years. At BACH, we therefore guarantee a long-lasting and sustainable impregnation of all textiles used. HIP BELT CUTOUTS: - The cutout on the hip belt is designed to wrap around the hips, the upper part of the construction can sit comfortably on the hip bone, providing an even better fit. It also allows the appropriate freedom of movement when walking and reduces friction and pressure points on the hip. Moreover, it makes the hip belt lighter without sacrificing comfort. 1000D CORDURA® FABRIC: - 1000D CORDURA® Classic is the toughest fabric BACH uses. It is extremely abrasion and tear resistant. The yarn is air-texturised, creating a matt and structured appearance and it is a lot more abrasion resistant than Oxford Nylon or Polyester fabrics of similar weight. Comparing the 1000D CORDURA® Classic with the 420D Oxford Nylon, it adds only about 30% extra weight by showing a tensile strength, which is about 2.5 times stronger. It is used on exposed and important parts of our packs where compromises are not an option.
