In order to provide a green and healthy life to all consumers, Everest Textile has been devoting itself in developing more and more green fabrics listed as below,
 Ecologically durable water-repellent textiles : Fluorocarbon-free
Conventional fluorocarbon polymers have been used virtually unmodified for more than 30 years to obtain water, soil and oil repellent textiles. However, for ecological reasons, the fluorocarbon polymer technology is increasingly under pressure. After launching PFOA and PFOS-free fluorocarbon water repellents, EVEREST has made every effort to develop durable water-repellent finishes that do NOT release fluoroorganic compounds called- FC Free (Fluorocarbon-free) for more eco-friendly and safe products in the market.
Intelligent self-organisation for optimum water-repellent effects
Dendrimers can be produced step by step by combining multifunctional components. With each synthetic step of these hyperbranched polymers the number of reactive end groups grows exponentially. The specific control of reactions enables to functionalise end groups with hydrophobic residues at the end of a series of synthetic steps, which resultsin an extreme density of water-repellent groups. These hyperbranched, hydrophobic polymers are highly efficient and, due to their network structure, tend to self-organise and crystallize. The water-repellent effect level obtained in initial textile finishing has so far only been possible with fluorocarbon polymers.
Advantages:
1. Fluorine-free(FC-free)
2. PFOA and PFOS-free
3. Confers a soft handle
4. Highly water-repellent
5. Repels aqueous soil
6. Free of formaldehyde and paraffin
7. Resistant to washing with spray test AATCC 22 up to DWR 80/20
8. Suitable for all fiber types

 Green water & oil repellent material
Everest uses C-6 fluorocarbon to replace conventional C-8 fluorocarbon as water- and oil-repellent material, avoiding the production of hazardous PFOA/PFOS substances during the manufacturing process.

| Ever PLA (Polylactic Acid Fiber) |
 Absorb water and resist wrinkling
Ever PLA is a new decomposable polyester fiber using corn, wheat and beets as raw material. It is highly hydrophilic to readily absorb water and resist wrinkling. Ever PLA is soft, durable, and has good deep dyeing effect with silky luster.
