It says it is the only consumer brand to be participating in a major research project called SUPFES, in which industrial and academic partners are working together to find new solutions.

At the same time, it is working in partnership with performance materials developer OrganoClick and the University of Borås in Sweden to find fluorocarbon-free water repellency treatments.
