A person with skis and a backpack is climbing a snowy mountain. The backpack is coated with PolyCores Eco-Shield.

Applied directly to the face of the fabric, Eco-Shield is your gear’s first line of defense against the elements. This heavy-duty waterborne coating reaches 10,000mm hydrostatic resistance and 4x the tear strength of TPU, without the weight or environmental impact. Built for extreme conditions, Eco-Shield keeps backpacks, duffels, and gear reliably protected from heavy rain to rugged terrain.
