Materials
Terra Nova TriPlex fabric is a compilation of Recycled, Solution Dyed and PFC-free fibres, to create one of the most environmentally friendly tent fabrics available, without sacrificing performance.
Terra Nova tents now feature recycled flysheets, groundsheet and inners fabrics, made from post-consumer plastic bottles.
Solution Dyeing is a technique that creates long-lasting, highly pigmented fabrics whilst reducing impact on the environment. Dying the polymers first, rather than the fibres after they’ve been made into fabric, results in less water, chemical waste and energy use. It can also reduce harmful bi-products entering the atmosphere, like CO2.
PFAS and PFC’s pose environmental concerns due to their persistence and potential harm to our ecosystems. After vigorous testing and development to ensure quality remains at the forefront of our products, all Terra Novatents are now fully PFC-free.
