Dyneema® Composite Hybrid 3.2, 104g/sqm color: olive green

The naming of Dyneema® Composites received an update. This article is equivalent to our former „Dyneema® Composite fabric + woven, CT5K.18/wov32c, 102g/sqm" and „Dyneema® Composite Fabric + woven, CT5K.18/blkwov4, 102g/sqm".

Dyneema® Composite Fabric is a performance laminate, that was originally invented for high-end cruising sails. The concept is well known in the sailing-industry: Strong fibers are being laminated between two carriers. What makes Dyneema® Composite Fabric special are the ultra-strong Dyneema®-fibres that are used. Dyneema® combines extremely high tear-strength with ultralight weight. Not without reason it is called "The world's strongest fiber"! Due to the unique properties of the fibers, Dyneema® Composite Fabric is far more tear-resistant than other fabrics of the same weight, it is highly waterproof, doesn't stretch, is resistant to folding, doesn't soak water, is UV- and chemical-resistant. The application range is determined by the amount of Dyneema®-fibers and various carrier materials that are used. The standard Dyneema® Composite Fabrics have a smooth Polyester-film on each side that makes it highly waterproof and can be easily glued. Dyneema® Composite Hybrid widens the application range by using additional layers of woven fabrics to optimize it for backpacks or bags.

Dyneema® Composite Hybrid 3.2 is enhanced with an additional layer of 50 denier polyester fabric on the outside! This significantly increases abrasion resistance and offers a much wider range of strong color options. The transparent film on the inside ensures high water resistance and is easy to bond. Thanks to the bidirectional Dyneema® fibers in between, the result is extremely tear-resistant and lightweight. With a reduced amount of Dyneema® fibers, this is the lightest Dyneema® Composite Hybrid version at 104g/m², ideal for ultralight backpacks, daypacks, or accessory bags.

According to Avient, partially bio-circular raw materials are used in the production of the Dyneema® fibers used in Dyneema® Composites. In this process, residual materials from the wood and pulp industries are incorporated into the raw material supply chain through a certified mass balance approach. Combined with the use of 100% renewable energy, this reduces greenhouse gas emissions during fiber production compared to conventional HMPE. Avient reports a reduction of approximately 3.76 kg of CO2 equivalents per kilogram of Dyneema® fiber. According to the manufacturer, the technical properties of the fibers are identical to those of conventional Dyneema®. The bio-circular raw materials used are certified under the ISCC mass balance system.
