Benefits of Aerogel Insulation
for Outdoor Gear, Apparel,
and Footwear

Highest thermal performance

Minimum weight and thickness

Loft not required to maintain R value

Doesn’t compress or lose performance under load

Waterproof yet allows vapor transmission

Increased fashion and design elements

Durable in normal wash/dry cycle

	Composed of over 90 percent air, aerogel is a highly effective insulator with the lowest thermal conductivity of any solid. Aspen Aerogels has turned aerogel into an extremely strong, durable, and flexible material that is two to eight times more effective than traditional insulation. Aerogel insulation is thin, compression-resistant, and waterproof – the ideal choice for outdoor products.
