Trusted by explorers Since 1977, explorers of all kinds have been using Nikwax for over 45 years. Whether they’re on foot or wheels, in tents or in the mountains they rely on Nikwax to help care for their outdoor kit so they stay warm and dry and their gear lasts longer.
Nikwax have developed easy-to-use, highly effective and long-lasting after-care treatments for all weatherproof fabrics. The treatments contain elastic water-repellent polymers that bond to fabric fibres, leaving the spaces between open and breathable. They stretch and move with the fabric so they work better and last longer. Nikwax will not change the look or feel of the fabric, it will just protect and prolong its useable life. The treatments are water-based, environmentally safe and non-flammable. Ideal for all types of outdoor equipment and accessories.
