Technologies
-
Dyneema
Dyneema fiber offers maximum strength for minimal weight. It is thus 15 times stronger than steel, while being light enough to float on water. Additionally, Dyneema excels in cut and abrasion resistance. Dyneema materials are very easy to repair. Samaya has chosen to use this material in its bio-sourced version, which offers the same performance with a 90% reduced carbon footprint.
-
Mylar Film
Combined with Dyneema, this film reinforces the whole and offers excellent waterproofing.
-
Nanovent
Unlike other brands, Samaya has developed a technology to create lightweight and high-performance single-wall tents. With a membrane made up of a network of polyurethane nano-filaments, it ensures air renewal as well as high waterproofness and breathability. The Nanovent membrane is combined with a hydrophilic nylon that helps limit the formation of droplets inside the tent, and with a hydrophobic nylon that allows for a smooth water flow and a very low moisture absorption rate on the outer surface.
-
Fermeture YKK
YKK offers the most durable and reliable fasteners.
-
YKK AquaGuard
Samaya has notably chosen the water-repellent AquaGuard zipper for most of its products, which makes a difference in terms of technicality and reliability in extreme conditions thanks to its water resistance.
-
Gamme Ultra
The ULTRA range was designed with the ambition to meet the extremely demanding specifications of Samaya athletes. In the quest for the slightest gram, the ULTRA range is a concentration of technology.
-
Swiss Piranha
Samaya calls on SwissPiranha for its ultra-light SwissPiranha BF stakes made from durable, unbreakable recycled plastic. They are manufactured in Switzerland and are fully recyclable. Their production consumes 13 times less energy than that of aluminum stakes.
-
Cordura
Extremely robust fabric, abrasion-resistant and tear-proof.
